I have been wowed by the sundae & flavor specials that Bishop's Orchards has been posting about for…read morethe last few months, but I live about 50 minutes away. Finally, I just had to taste one of their July specials, their own blueberry pie à la mode. You had the choice of blueberry or vanilla ice cream, and I needed blueberry. It had whipped cream and blueberry compote on top also. I enjoyed every bit. It was incredible. The large wedge of their own blueberry pie was excellent. I loved the flaky crust and there was a lot more blueberry filling than a lot of other pies. I had also been eyeing another flavor on their board, and what I ate was so good that I went back up to the window for a kid size cup cold brew pb chip. The cold brew flavor was strong but balanced, and it's rare that so many flavors work together in ice cream without one getting lost. I was really impressed this was one of those rare cases where everything shined and wowed, and it really was as good a flavor as I wanted it to be. I did not go inside the farm market. I just ordered at their ice cream window and ate at one of the outdoor tables. There were several of them, as well as a few benches, and it was a nice environment. The girl at the window was super friendly and helpful too. I loved my first experience. I can't wait to go, and actually hope to for another of this month's specials! Highly recommend a visit.

The farm-stand has a large store with produce, dairy, homemade pies and baked goods, prepared foods and even a winery where you can do wine tastings. We got a blueberry pie and it was one of the best weve had. Pies were $17.99 and it weighs 2 pounds!

They no longer have fudge, but they have added the most delicious ice cream ever. Now before you poo poo this idea you must try the olive oil orange ice cream. Honestly, you have never tasted anything so delicious. We are even considering a trip to Chester where the Honeycone ice cream is manufactured. Either way we hope to have it again really soon.

We picked up a box of assorted truffles, white chocolate raspberry fudge, chocolate walnut fudge, and a variety of chocolates, all of which have been amazing so far! I was also very impressed to see that they had marzipan - I haven't noticed it too much around here. I really appreciated the time that the owner took to make our box look pretty - it made us feel special! We will definitely visit again when we're in the area looking for chocolate!

This place was packed on a Sunday afternoon. I was a little worried about parking but the lot was…read morebigger than it looked and there was plenty of space. They had a corn maze, pumpkins, apple orchards, and a variety of animals! I didn't do the corn maze but I enjoyed seeing the goats, pig, chickens, turkey, and even a yak. They had no issues with you feeding the animals and sold some food for a quarter. I was initially disappointed that all the apples were gone because the trees in the front were completely bare but once we got a bag and saw the map, I saw that the land was quite spacious with every variety of apple you could think of. The front rows had been picked clean but there were plenty to choose from in the back. They charged by the pound. For a few apples, we paid about $6. They had a ton of apple pies and some flavors I had never heard of before like apple caramel walnut. Had such a good time.

My first (and last) visit to Pa's place on Father's Day. No parking, which is to be expected on…read moresuch a busy day, especially since it was such a nice day weather-wise. No available seating, which should have been a clue as to what awaited us. Our food (a few simple sandwiches with NO sides) took over an hour to be ready. Nobody mentioned at time of ordering that there was a long wait. Had we known, we would have gone elsewhere. There was no sense of urgency or desire to move things along. Just a couple of kids fixing sandwiches at a snail's pace. Half of our party had to leave before the food arrived due to other commitments and we didn't get to enjoy the Father's Day lunch together. On the bright side, there was live music and once we were able to find seating (thank you to the ladies willing to share) - the outdoor atmosphere was enjoyable. Would not recommend unless you don't mind taking an afternoon off to have a sandwich.
