***BRING CASH!!!!…read more Big Orange Pumpkin at Preston Trail Farms is WORTH THE DRIVE!!! We drive 55min one way every year to visit the Big Orange Pumpkin farm. As far as Pumpkin Patches go this is the best one for the cost. $12/person gets you entrance + one small pumpkin from patch + feed for petting barn + hayride + feeding & touching animals in the roping pen and the hay maze We take photos all over at the fun photo-ops set up throughout the patch. We take our time feeding all the animals, petting the longhorns and laughing at the goats as they jump all over one another. We make our way to the hay maze where we take turns racing through it or sending the kids through while timing them. It's not a difficult hay maze but they have fun going through it over and over. The hayride is silly, slow and is usually chilly, but it's a fun experience and there's a silly story along the way. We pack lunches, so someone runs to the car to grab those while the rest of us spread out at a table and then we all enjoy lunch together before picking our pumpkins and heading home. A FEW TIPS: -Try and get there shortly after they open so you miss the field trip groups and large crowds. -Pack lunches! There are quite a few picnic tables outdoors and a few indoors you can spread out and eat at. Food is also available to purchase indoors. -Bring cash!!! You'll be charged a large fee to use a credit card for entry -Wear boots or shoes you don't mind getting dirty -Bring a coast - the wind picks up, especially on the hayride.

We drove an hour to visit this pumpkin farm, and we're so glad we did! It was opened later than…read moremost and has all the great attractions you'd hope for--a large pumpkin patch, maze, hayride, a great petting zoo with longhorns and a cool outdoor patio for adults to hang out as well as picnic tables for families. And the entire staff was soooo friendly and helpful! Well worth the trip! We'll be back!

We did get great looking roses from our visit and unfortunately no peaches as we just missed the…read moreseason. There are directions for nothing when you make it. There's nowhere that is obvious to park. If you want to pick roses, you have to ask for the trimmers and a vase. The vase that the man had to go grab in the greenhouse and clean out before he gave it to us. I went there thinking this would be a fun activity with my toddlers. The man who gave us the clippers and vase couldn't keep his eyes off my chest and offered to help me trim my roses and carry the vase for me the whole time... no thanks. The experience we had picking the roses was fun. After we paid I asked for a bag of some sort of wrapping to take them home in instead of the glass vase. He said to "just bring it back if you're in the neighborhood or when you come back". Aside from the creepy interaction... if this place had a bit more organization it could be good! I would not go back

I went there today (end of July) and all the peaches were gone. But I'll know better next year. The…read morefolks there said their yield wasn't their normal. But I had a nice time just walking around, looking at the trees. There were a few raspberries to be picked, but you have to really look. I was also told there were blueberries and tomatoes but they weren't evident to me. It's a nice place. The folks were very welcoming.Theres a little area to the side where you can sit in the shade. You're just in the open field and that's it. There's also some plastic cups that they give you to put your flowers and you can pick/cut your own flowers. 12 or $10. Just a caution if you are not sure footed be careful because it's a little unsteady as you're walking from one area to the next. Wear long pants because as you go through the bushes looking for raspberries, it can get a little scratchy around the ankles. And since it's outdoors, it's extremely hot so make sure you wear a hat, sunscreen, and everything else to be comfortable in this type of weather. I would not recommend bringing any pets because the area is not wide open as you're looking at the roses on the above ground beds or looking for the fruits in the bushes. But I do recommend this place during the high season. Easy to locate. Off the main road and there it is. I would recommend calling before going out there. But yeah I'm glad I went and people were coming in looking for peaches.

Tomorrow's dinner will definitely include a fresh cucumber salad, fried squash and a cobbler! Can't wait to go back in a couple of weeks to pick my own peaches!

Though I will temper that with the fact that they only played the same several things over and over again. A good chunk of the place were of zero interest to them. When you do engage with the staff, they are helpful and enthusiastic to help. But otherwise, it's difficult to tell if they even wanted to be there. We would visit again but only if it was free to go.

Over these last months, my daughter's cooking skills have really blossomed. She's been doing great with listening and following directions, as well as cooking skills such as safely cutting food and measuring ingredients. Every month there are different themes as well. It's wonderful thing to watch your child prepare and cook the food, and then at the end watch them eat happily and proudly that something was made by their own two hands. Classes are not too large either which makes it very easy to be involved. Thank you so much Young Chefs Academy!

Just as a heads-up, only two parents are allowed in the kitchen at a time, but parents can watch through the big window the whole time.
