Getting in some paintball target practice at Carleton Farm

This fall, our Good Day Seattle crew has been out highlighting several pumpkin patches in our area for a special fall edition of Zip Trips. Tonight, FOX 13's Bill Wixey takes us to Lake Stevens to check out Carlton Farm. I'm at Carlton Farm in Lake Stevens, and this is a true family-owned and operated pumpkin patch out here, and Greg Miller is the owner and operator here. Talk about what a passion this is for the entire family, putting this on. It is. It's a whole family event here. We got Cooper here, my grandson. He helps design things here at the farm. His mom's up. She does all the painting on everything here. Helps with the design. My wife runs our store up here. And then I oversee just basic farms, what goes on here at the farm on a day-to-day basis, getting it going. And it has to be an amazing undertaking for the entire family to put this on because everybody has a job, right? Yep, everybody's got a job. We're here early, we're here late, you know, seven days a week, whether you want to be here or not. So, you know, it keeps us going, keeps us young, keeps us excited about what's going on here. It's great. And Cooper had a huge hand in this as well because you're the one, oh, look out there, bud. You have actually come up with the Mario theme this year. Is that right? Yeah, and so are we going to have a little paintball contest here on our Mario-themed paintball? You ready to do this? Let me show Bill how to do it. Okay, here we go. All right. Show me how it's done there, Cooper. Show him how to shoot it out here. Get some lined up. Pull the trigger. Fire him in. There you go. Oh, man, look at that. There you go. Keep shooting. Oh, he's a good shot. Got to get right over here to the target. You ready? Oh, look at that. Oh, one more. That's pretty good. All right. I'm going to give it a shot here. Not much. I got 100. Oh, that's fun. Cooper, thank you so much for having us out. Yeah, thank you. Bring the family out to Carlton Farm in Lake Stevens. Back to you. I think these segments have been very helpful because it just dawned on me that we have so many pumpkin patches. Yeah, for sure. Yeah, a lot of entertaining things to do, especially when the weather's good. This is just one of several stops our Good Day Seattle crew is checking out this fall.
