The Herbfarm started as simple tale with a simple sale over thirty years ago. Bill and Lola Zimmerman found they had a few extra herbs and sold them on the side of the road in a rural town just 30 miles east of Seattle. This led to local requests, the building of a greenhouse and a son who remodeled the garage into a restaurant. Their herb driven 6-course meal had an educational element and an immediate feverish following and never an empty seat. The son Ron Zimmerman once the chef and his wife Carrie Van Dyck, the host, remain the proprietors today.

This herb driven, nine-course meal, now paired with six wines is a culinary masterpiece. Global gourmands put this once in a lifetime experience on their life’s wish list. An event saved for honeymoons, proposals or for a few fortuitous locals, it’s a mad meal each time the menu changes, which is bimonthly. No two meals are exactly alike as the day’s sourced ingredients can create subtle culinary differences daily. The Herbfarm believes in supporting the local farmers, foragers, cheese makers, wineries and fisherman. So do we.
