Snohomish in a Nutshell

---

We want to remind our neighbors and share with all visitors to our town what is very magical about Snohomish, and what has, is, or will be happening around Snohomish.  

Snohomish is a great place to live. So much so, family homes turn over infrequently. It is one of the few remaining small towns in western Washington, where the city core of historic old town, residential area, schools and essential services are all within a mile, even if you live on the perimeter. Yet it is within commuting distance of major job markets. 

Because sidewalks line almost every street in town, residents and visitors who want to walk certainly can. Visiting? Get out of the car, and walk your dog. Count the number of likeminded dog walkers you encounter. This is a good city in which to play dog walker bingo. 

Snohomish has great recreational opportunities, including the Centennial Trail, a biking, walking, commuting corridor that begins in town and proceeds 30 plus miles north to Nakashima Farm. 

Duck hunters, fisherman, golfers all come to Snohomish to enjoy their sports. 

Snohomish reinvented it's reputation on antiquing; that is still a part of commerce in the historic downtown. But we also have the restaurants, art galleries, clothing, shoe, and lifestyle stores, breweries, and a distillery to make a visit appealing to everyone.

There are a number of walking tours in the city that are also worth checking out. Most are dog friendly. Some are seasonal, some annual. They include a birding tour, tree tour, historic business and historic home tours, J.S. White (architect) tour, wine walks and solstice walk.  

For those of us that live here, our secret is we enjoy these things too.
