Another good year from True Blue with their participation in the Northampton County Open Gate Farm…read moreTour. They had their beekeeper there this year, who I didn't remember seeing last year, who was very popular with what he was selling along with pumpkin painting and tractor rides for a nominal fee plus their own products for sale as well. The only real downside was that there was no one around telling people where to go or what to do and quite a few people were just aimlessly meandering. But overall what they sell is still great and the drive is scenic and it just feels right during the fall.

The produce here is amazing during the summer season. Heirloom tomatoes, beefsteak tomatoes,…read morepeaches, apples, string beans, potatoes, basil, zucchini...And of course, the best hard apple cider in the USA. Service is always friendly and the market is clean.

Waste of money.. people were friendly and helpful. I bought1 dz corn and an apple pie ( that is not…read moremade there, just baked) . The corn had way too many bad spots and the apple pie , which looked nice ,tasted horrible. I took pics of the corn and the pie. I don't hold the bad tasting pie against them because after all it's made somewhere else, but the corn ? They have a sign that says not to open corn so how can it be checked ? Anyway I do not recommend the corn or pie. They have beautiful flowers. This is my personal opinion based on my experience ..

I like local markets. I dislike when they are out of the…read morereason I stopped. But I understand. You advertise fresh cider in January? People will claim it all. I could have taken a gallon on the road with me, but not sure how that would have kept. So I looked around and went with a fresh-baked cinnamon roll and some fresh-made scrapple. Yup. They make scrapple here. That's pretty cool. Not cool? I asked for a half pound. I got closer to a pound. The lady (owner?) gave me a blank look when I asked for less. Because she couldn't mold it back into the loaf or something. I ended up going with it but she should have accommodated and given me what I asked for. Scrapple was the best you'll find this far out of scrapple country. Roll was delicious. My friend enjoyed his homemade pumpkin crumb cake. Other products, I wouldn't bother. A lot of their branded products are overpriced. I asked about their (homemade?) pecans and she said "price is on the bottom of each jar". Actually, a lot of jars were missing the price. So we've got some consistency issues here. I would classify this as a boutique market, a nice little stop if you have a craving, but I wouldn't make this a regular stop. (Sadly, if only they kept up with their cider doughnuts through midday, my review may have ended differently.)

I haven't had the food yet but it looks good.

Summertime is great to venture away from home and explore ALL the western/central NJ farms and find…read moresomething to about each one. I tagged a handful of farms to visit to buy different produce and meats and what ever else folks offered and this place did not disappoint. We had an hour before heading down @Cabbagethrowfarm as they open at 2 pm so, we stopped @countryfreshfarm to meet Sheri and the hard working staff filling vegetable bins, washing buckets, re-arranging merchandise and making sure the products were ready for the Friday afternoon customers. The free parking lot adjoins the property and beyond there are a myriad of merchandise strewn along the outside of the building to buy from wooden benches, Cowboy boot bird houses, garden carts, flag holders, plants and a separate shed/room full of decorative indoor/outdoor plaques, signs, trays, pictures of Highland cows (my fave) and candles, country kitschy items for every personal style. Everyone was helpful, engaging, shared some info about where certain items were sourced and how they came about selling their items. I purchased a loaf of Amish cheese bread (I'll review that later), some sweet corn, tomatoes and the succulent cantaloupe that I cut up that night and absolutely sweet and ripe. (No comparison to the methane sprayed supermarket melons which are hard and never ripen to their potential sweetness!) There is a play area for the children plus a corn table to occupy them. As the weather gets cooler, we'll return to see what FALL weather offers us.

So disappointing, I was sent over to this business last year at this time via my landscape…read morecontractor. I asked for 2 yards of mulch and told the woman who had sent me. What a ROTTEN FACE I got from her when she heard the name. This should have been my warning to turn around and walk away. I continued with my request for material, and that I wanted a call prior to delivery so that I could be at the house, gave my information and left. I never got a call, my check got cashed and multiple phone calls went unanswered, and I never got the material that I paid for. All I can say is that the customer service is deplorable. They must have needed my $53.00 really badly, just such bad business practice.

When you first see Ashley Farms, you have an intuition that this is a great find. The sign outside…read moresurrounded by Black Eyed Susan's is just beautiful. We've passed this place often, but my wife and I finally had an opportunity to stop in this week. Being naturally drawn to sweets, the pies and the cakes were the first things we looked at. What an amazing selection! If you like pies, that alone is enough reason to come here. Since it's almost Fall, we bought a pumpkin cream cheese roll. It was absolutely amazing! We also picked up a couple of apple cinnamon scones for breakfast the next morning. We have friends who say the tomatoes here are the best around, and that's saying something since we know all the places with great NJ tomatoes! Now that we've been here, Ashley Farms will be a regular stop for us! Give it a try!

For Thanksgiving this year we decided to get a fresh turkey from here and some of their "homemade"…read morepies. Turkey was good, but the pies (Pecan and Pumpkin) were absolutely the worst pies I've ever eaten. Actually, we couldn't even eat them they were so inedible. The pecan had zero taste and was wrapped in plastic which means they probably buy them cheap and sell for a huge profit. Pumpkin pie had a very rubbery texture and again zero taste. We were so embarrassed as no one ate the pies. We threw them in the ditch next to our house. Totally, totally disgusting. Save yourself a ton of money and get yourself a $2.99 Mrs. Smith's pie from the grocery store and a pumpkin pie from Costco. A fraction of the price and at least they're edible!
