We learned about apples, orchards and this amazing local business. They sell "you pick" apples for , what I believe, is the lowest price around. They sell local products like sourdough breads, jams, pickles, cheeses as well as their own homemade baked goods. Their homemade apple fritters are delicious. There are also other vegetables grown here to buy. Their new restaurant is in a renovated barn on their property and even has a deck with a beautiful view of the orchard me The food was excellent and the service was great. Check their hours and specials.

I went to the barn restaurant side to grab a bite. Got the parmesan fries which were really well crisped, generously seasoned, and came as a huge portion. Some of the best fries I have had. Almost as crispy as the double fried fries in Belgium. Live musicians was playing too and it was such s pleasant and joyous experience!

Awesome ORGANIC apples!…read more Stopped by with some friends on a gorgeous fall day and could not have been happier with our experience. A wide variety of apples were available for picking at $1.30/lb (compared to $3+ at the grocery store). The folks at the counter were super friendly and helpful. We asked a bunch of questions about the methods they use to get such good apples using organic practices and they were happy to tell us about their techniques. If you're looking for a fall festival madhouse you won't find it here... just amazing apples in a gorgeous setting.

You can purchase both subscription boxes as well as individual produce. The farm stand is open Wednesday- Friday from 9am-4pm and on Saturdays from 9am-1pm.

They also sell other local farmers' produce here as well (like corn from Delaney farm). Staff is always super helpful and kind, too!

My husband and I were recently in the Syracuse area on a concert overnight road trip. Before…read moreheading home, he had a particular lesser-known offbeat local landmark he wanted to see, which happens to be in the same neighborhood as the Coop. So while there we went into the Coop for some coffee and sandwiches, and enjoyed a nice curb lunch out front. The Coop has a variety of grab-and-go sandwiches in a cooler towards the front, near the self-serve coffee area, several of which are vegan. I tried the vegan chickpea salad pita. My husband had the vegan buffalo seitan on ciabatta bread. He went with the dark roast coffee, and I had the medium-roast Bird of Paradise blend at recommendation of one of the fun checkout crew guys. The staffer claimed it is the best coffee he's ever had. I hit the carafe at just the right time to be empty and necessitate a fresh brew ... and WOW, he was NOT kidding! What an EXCELLENT cup of coffee! I love a light, wispy coffee that is so utterly crisp that every sip is somehow both satisfying and vapid, like your palate is both satiated and cleansed all at the same time--and this wonderful palate-paradox is the exact experience with a fresh cup of Bird of Paradise! And as for the sandwiches, also delicious! My chickpea salad pita was creamy and crunchy, with a hint of spicy. My husband loved the buffalo seitan sandwich so much so that he nearly denied me a bite! But I did get one, and can concur YUM. We strolled the aisles a bit while we were there, and it is a sweet little grocer with a small selection of all of your typical market sections. The selection of vegan and specialty groceries, like keto and gluten-free, is well represented here, too. Vegan marshmallows were on sale, so we grabbed a couple bags, as well as a few bricks of vegan ramen. If we lived closer I would gladly shop here, at minimum come back for more of that Bird of Paradise coffee! The staff was super friendly, the prepared foods were delicious, the coffee was superb--enjoy this sweet little establishment Syracuse, what a gem! :-D

We visited today, 9/12, with three kids the youngest being 3 yrs. This was our fourth year coming…read moreto the farm. When we arrived to the purchasing shed we already knew we had to purchase wrist bands for all three kids for the activities on the farm. No big deal. We had been talking about today all week, the kids were excited. We told the employee we needed three wristbands then the employee stated if I or my husband wanted to go past the sign/string that surrounded the whole activity area to watch my kids then I would have to purchase a wrist band along with my husband. I explained that wouldn't be necessary because neither of us would be using any of the activities they offer. I simply would keep an eye on the kids especially the 3 year old. He stated even to do that we needed wristbands. I told him we didn't need them and went through with the transaction of three wristbands. As I am standing watching my children behind the line I realize other moms and dads thought the same thing. Many parents within the "line" or past the sign where the activities were had not purchased the wristbands either. About five minutes go by and I see a different employee start checking for parent wristbands. And if he didn't see them wearing one he would hand them a wrist band and show them the card reader to pay. We were all shocked. How can you justify charging a parent that is just trying to keep their child safe. They were not using anything. Maybe I am overreacting but when groups have multiple children and purchase three plus wristbands at almost 16 dollars a piece adding another two bands for people that won't even be using the activities is wild. We truly just wanted to keep an eye on the kids that was it. Instead we watched from so far away we missed out on certain parts of the day. We hope they consider changing that soon. Positives: kids had fun, great variety of apples for being so early in the season
