I believe that Temple Family Farm was founded about 100 years ago. I met the current owner at the…read moreSewickley Farmers Market. He was selling an assortment of meats: ground beef, beef patties, london broil, chuck/arm roast, rump roast, eye of round roast, short ribs, beef cubes, liver, porterhouse, t-bone, bone-in ribeye, strip steak, filet/tenderloin, sirloin, skirt, beef brisket, pork chops, shoulder roast, baby-back ribs, spare ribs, country ribs, bacons, hams, ground lamb, lamb rack, loin chops, etcetera! A sign on his table said that he was also offering half/whole pigs and whole lambs. He accepted customers' payments via cash, check, credit card, Apple Pay, and Venmo. My husband, who had recently been gifted a new grill, felt most interested in the beef brisket, so he purchased 2.5 pounds of brisket. The owner made courteous conversation about how to grill the brisket, and he sincerely thanked us. The price was slightly higher than what some other farms and stores charge, but I think that Temple Family Farm raises their animals in better conditions. Later at home, my husband put this beef brisket in his smoker for hours. The brisket was tender and flavorful.

Not sure why there aren't many more reviews for this farm! My family and I went for their fall…read moreevent that includes a hayride, corn maze, pumpkin picking from the vine and a play area for kids. Entry was $5 and kids 2 and under are free. The entry fee gets you access to everything mentioned. There were 3 food trucks in front, and also their main building consists of fresh picked vegetables (a big assortment of peppers ranging from mild to hot) and other handmade local goods. Prices are very reasonable as well. If you don't want to pick your own pumpkin, there are also ones that you can just choose and purchase in front of their main building, along with cornstalks. Let me tell you, this hayride is by far the best I've been on. From the cleanliness of the farm and the hayride, to the organization and friendliness of the employees. They close at 5pm on Saturdays, and advertise that their last hayride is at 4pm, but they went until almost closing due to there still being people who wanted to ride. There were 2 tractors that took patrons to and from the pumpkin area. The ride to the area was about 5 or so minutes, and coming back was about 10 minutes. While riding, you get views of the whole farm, a view of a pond and also ride through their orchards. The tractors and seating area were clean and in good shape. The pumpkin patch had a lot to choose from and different shapes, sizes and colors. Many were still on the vine. The price for the pumpkins is $0.42 per pound. I got one huge pumpkin, and 4 small ones for $12. Not bad at all! This farm has yearly events, and I can't wait to return. Definitely recommended!

We are new to the area and when house hunting last fall, we spotted the hay bale minions. My husband is a huge minion fan so he made our poor realtor go back to take pictures! We didn't realize at the time that the hale bale sculptures are an annual event at the farm. We've been back to get fresh produce and went to the open house a couple weeks ago and took a hayride tour of the farm. Looking forward to fall produce and seeing what this year's hay bales are!

You still have a couple weeks left. Get here before fall is over.

This is such a cute place to visit in the fall!! (Thought I bet it's a cute place year round)…read more I stopped in on a Saturday morning while on vacation. The amount of pumpkins and the varity of pumpkin colors was amazing!! I loved seeing the classic bright orange to the yellow to the deep orange almost red. They had pallets of pumpkins well spread out for you to walk around and find the perfect one. Inside the shop had some local good along with more generic products. The bakery is really what shined. You were able to smell the free baked goods when you walked in. The apple fritter was a disappointment but the cinnamon sugar pumpkin doughbut was amazing!! I do with the bakery had a display list of doughnuts before you got up the counter. Overall it's such a cute place to visit. I'd recommend coming early to beat the crowds!

Boy will you be wrong- the place extends well out into the back! We didn't go into the nursery area but the plants were gorgeous. Go into the market store area- it is huge! There's a bakery, a deli, a little lunch spot, groceries, candies, home goods etc. I want to highlight the little wine section with the kindest lady working there. She gave us a tour of the entire place - that's how we found out the place was much more than meets the eye! We sampled several different wines, and purchased several! One of the wines sold there supports a rescue group with every sale. We bought some jams (birthday gifts), honey and hot sauces from the store. Traverse out back, there's the original barn that is a gift shop (3 stories), lots of unique items, a farm petting barn of animals rescued from slaughterhouses, a separate store for those with allergies that they can shop specific allergen friendly food. An ice cream stand, a hard cider ale house and some play areas for the children. We stopped in the arsenal ale house to have a drink and that was delicious too! We were hungry after and were looking for place to eat then we remembered there was a little lunch spot in the store so back in we went! Perfect tied over lunch, great sandwiches, pickles have got to be homemade. Drinks from cooler- super refreshing. Definitely will be back.

This is one of those places that is wonderful but I avoid like the plague during fall festival…read moreseason. Not because their fall festival isn't great (it is, lots of great activities). They do manage parking and crowds fairly well, but it was an absolute madhouse and wall to wall people. Just not my kind of scene when I want a farm experience. That being said, they are awesome to visit during the less busy times. They have a lot of great produce in the main shop along with things like spices and jarred/canned items. They also have a seasonal shop, garden shop and cider building. So plenty of places to explore and try great new things. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Overall, a great farm to visit and support! Just expect huge crowds if you go in the fall.

The family feeds their hens a 100% organic soy-free feed and gives them access to open pastures for 365 days per year. They feed their berkshire pigs a 100% organic soy-free feed and put them on pasture year-round. They feed their belted galloway cattle 100% grass and hay on open pastures. They do not administer any hormones or antibiotics to their animals. So far, I have purchased this farm's chicken eggs, ham, chuck roast, and rump roast. I made the purchases through the website Market Wagon. My husband, dog, and I greatly enjoyed the freshness and flavors of all of these foods. Examples of this farm's other foods are steaks, ribs, ground beef, hotdogs, sausage, kielbasa, green peppers, and banana peppers. I feel happy that this family takes such excellent care of their animals and that their foods are such a high quality, so I will continue to buy their foods in the future.

Alan and Chris have a beautiful farm in the heart of Ashtabula.

Your night stay whether tent, camping, or in one of their facilities comes with breakfast in the morning. You can book on their website or go through hipcamp. There is drinking water and a flush toilet on site for campers to use. They also do different yoga classes lead by Em Keen either in or outside based on the weather. They have a yoga platform in the Meadow, which is amazing. Chris has her own art studio beautiful art that is for sale. Alan makes all different types of sourdough breads, cookies, rolls, pies, and bagels. They also sell their own honey and eggs from their many chickens. You can order on his website. I went September 2023 for their second ever mind-body wellness retreat. It was an amazing 24 hours. A friend and I went to celebrate my birthday. We started out with a tour of the beautiful farm led by Alan. We then had our first class which was yoga, led by Em. we took a little break for lunch, which was homemade soups in homemade sourdough bread bowls made by Alan. We then had a little bit of relaxation time and time to mingle with each other before having a Qigong lead by Paul Zegarac - this was great and extremely interesting. A practice I've never tried before. We then had a mindfulness class back out on the yoga platform in the Meadow, led by Em. we then spent time with other retreat members just visiting before making our own homemade stone oven pizzas made with Alan's homemade sourdough pizza dough. They had a lot of toppings for us to choose from. for a last class of the day we had a sound bath, which was extremely relaxing and led by Mary Conley - as the sun was setting. To end our day we had a closing ceremony around a bonfire, which was just so emotional and memorable. We made s'mores the fire before going to bed. The next morning, Alan and Chris made us French toast buffet breakfast with two different kinds of homemade compote with yogurt and granola , and even some of their honey from their farm. Going to Flannel Dog Farm was an awesome experience, and I look forward to returning!
