Great Harvest Bread Co. in Lake Forest Park WA: baking up some wholesome goodness!

I have been to Great Harvest Bread Companies before, but had no idea they were individually owned and the Great Harvest in Lake Forest Park, Washington is at the top of my list! This locally owned small business has been creating wonderful wholesome food and giving back to the community they serve! If you haven't been to Great Harvest in Lake Forest Park, then you should go experience it because THERE IS A DIFFERENCE.

This local Lake Forest Park bread company offers up a lot more than bread and has some great eat in options with amazing soups of the day (Today's soup is Broccoli Cheddar) and a made to order sandwich bar among other fabulous items. My very favorite spot to stop for a sandwich is right here! They make their sandwiches with really fresh ingredients and their yummy bread. You can also buy a number of prepared baked goods packaged up and ready to go.

So to the bread: Great Harvest puts out a bread schedule and bakes all of their normal staples daily, but also adds some variety by adding specialty breads using a daily schedule - for instance, today's specialty bread for July is Apple Crunch, Cherry Berry Bread, Dakota, Gluten Free Bread, Swedish Rye, and Whole Grain Sourdough. On Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, Great Harvest has gluten free breads and on Fridays they have hamburger buns. Breads are all baked from scratch and the ingredients are all local and organic.

You will be greated with a smile and great service even if it is crowded. Great Harvest Bread Co. always has a table of samples that they will go through with you and give you a chance to try. I have never been disappointed - it is just good food!

After 24 hours if not sold Great Harvest donates to a local food bank. This is truly a company making a difference. I would highly recommend stopping by Great Harvest in Lake Forest Park if you get a chance and if you are a local, then buy all your bread here all the time. We should all support our local businesses and especially when they are stellar!

Horizon View real estate in Lake Forest Park WA - this is a great neighborhood in the Seattle suburb of Lake Forest Park Washington!

Horizon View is the highest point in Lake Forest Park and because of that the homes here tend to have some great views! The Horizon View neighborhood has views of Lake Washington, the Cascades, Mount Baker, Mount Rainier, and Seattle on a clear day.

The real perk here for Lake Forest Park Horizon View homes, though is the park itself and great reason to look at Horizon View real estate- Horizon View Park is one of the most phenomenal around and a great smaller scale version of all the things we all like about Green Lake in Seattle! There is a quarter mile loop and a mile loop, enclosed tennis court, basketball/sport court, ball field, playground complete with choo choo train and separated by age appropriateness, and more! There is parking, porta-potties, a water fountain, and dogs are allowed here on leash. In true Lake Forest Park fashion, there is a dog bowl here for your furry friends to sip out of as well. The park is 8.4 acres and includes a giant Seattle reservoir which is inside of the larger loop.

Little known Horizon View Lake Forest Park fact: Ready for this one? Horizon View Park used to be a Nike Missile site! It was the radar tracking portion of the system, but it was right here in Horizon View Park from 1957 until it was decommissioned in 1964. You can still see the relics if you look closely. After my daughter beat me at a game of tennis, we wandered up an old staircase that was covered in brambles and seemed to literally lead to nowhere. I didn't know it at the time, but this was one of the radar pads left over from the old site - it was still a bit eerie. The actual launching site is over on 1st and 228th on Nike Hill in Bothell (I also had no idea where the nick name had come from for the hill). Through out the 1950s Seattle got a lot of these installed apparently.

Horizon View is a great neighborhood and Lake Forest Park is a wonderful Seattle suburb in Washington! I have written about Lake Forest Park real estate before, but wanted to start really getting out some cool neighborhood information - Horizon View is a cool Lake Forest Park neighborhood and there are some wonderful homes here!
