There's lots more going on this weekend:

Edmonds Waterfront Festival. Say ahoy to classic yachts, arts and crafts, family entertainment, good food and more at Port of Edmonds Marina Friday through Sunday.

Herb and Food Fair . If you've ever wondered about herbal medicine, reflexology or natural cooking, head over to Bastyr University in Kenmore Saturday. Cooking demonstrations, lectures and guided herb-garden walks are scheduled regularly. Pick up a pamphlet or two about practicing naturopathy and stick around for the scads of vegetarian, vegan and otherwise healthy treats.

Duvall Days. Lions and tigers and bears? Well, not quite. But Saturday, downtown Duvall will host horses on parade, pony rides, cows, a petting zoo and a dog show. For those less animal-inclined, a dunk tank, hands-on crafts activities and a classic-car show will be there, too. Root-beer floats will keep you and kids smiling till dinner.

Medieval Faire. Sir Lancelot was on to something. For a little taste of that medieval flair — jousting, anyone? — hop in the carriage and head on over to Port Gamble Saturday and Sunday. Dancing maidens, armored knights and traveling minstrels will line the streets.

A Glimpse Into China. Can't fit a trip to Beijing into your summer schedule? Don't worry, China's coming to you. This Saturday, Seattle Center will fill up with the food, dance and music of ancient and modern China. Peruse the fine arts, listen to the folk music and take in a martial-arts demonstration. If you get tuckered out, practitioners of Chinese medicine will be on hand to soothe those joints — and point you toward one of many Chinese food vendors.

— Haley Edwards, Seattle Times staff reporter
