Picnic

As we trundle off among the fields of daffodils, there is a stop along the way, where pipes are smoked, hip flasks are sipped, and don’t be surprised if a croquet game starts.

REXVILLE GROCERY, is more than a grocery store. This Historic Skagit Valley store offers great gourmet foods and serves as a community center. Wine tasting’s, and art openings are just part of smashing things you’ll find. Stop in for a picnic lunch or a cup of tea and enjoy the friendly Rexville spirit! Call ahead at (360) 466-5522, and they’ll have a picnic ready for you.

Répondez s’il vous plaît. RSVP. We need to know how much tea to brew.


Down the lane is Pleasant Ridge Farm providing a large selection of seasonal produce in the spring and fall. Top quality produce at an excellent price!

The Excursion

The best part of our little jaunt, highlights some of the breath taking views of Skagit Valley while still considering safety and comfort. The ride itself will assume a very casual pace fit for cyclists of all skill levels. The few mile loop will take roughly two hours (with stops) to complete with the start and end location being one and the same. www.thedandydaffodil.com
