I've always wanted to order one, I think i will this year after reading the reviews. Small dirt parking lot for approx 10 cars maybe? I love driving by this farm everyday and seeing the corn, cows, pigs and occasional turkeys! It's so peaceful and serene. The small lake/pond and rolling hills are like a postcard! Check it out in the fall! From their site: We offer our own grass-fed beef, pastured pork, Thanksgiving turkeys and farm fresh vegetables, as well as our own honey, maple syrup, stone-ground corn meal, firewood, and other products. In the fall, we have pick-your-own pumpkin days. We have several greenhouses, which help us to stay a few steps ahead of Mother Nature.

Came here one week night poor girl was left alone around 8:30pm two people in front of me, I was about to get 4 pints to take home then all sudden 10 people pull up I was like holy crap I felt bad she scooped her heart out and showed it and never gave up and smiled gave her a $10. Tip for her hard scooping that's dedication. And I made sure everyone saw that I gave her a good tip for her hard work and I bet she served every single person in that line even though they were closing. Now that's service I hope everyone shows these hard working kids respect. Because there are a lot of lazy ones out there. Support your local business stop in and grab a cone or a pint or even a quart. Thanks sunshine farm I'll be back keep that orange and pineapple on the top of the mist like list please.

The honey farms Golden Rule Honey (Free to Bee) make an appearance with local honey from Leominster and Fitchburg; they're delicious and variegated in flavors. Mahalab bakery had really nice sourdough pita bread! I think I'll have one now. Winter Moon Roots had delicious beets and carrots. Chase Hill Farms had some really nice looking pork, and their sausages and cheeses were really nice too. Meadowfed lamb also sells chicken! Red Fire Farm had really delicious carrots. Bread Obsession carried really nice, dense yet flavorful, caraway seed rye bread.

I love eating local so I came here to supplement the regular types of stuff I have in the fridge. The Hosta Hill kimchi comes in different flavors and is a nice addition to eggs. I also discovered a lovely nutty granola here that goes perfect with Greek yogurt and apples. There are nice spreads they sell here from Boston Fish Co. including smoked salmon pate. Between these "staples" and the array of cheeses, desserts, and pastas, I walk out with almost $100 worth of yummy local foodstuffs each visit. It's a fun thing to do on a Saturday morning/afternoon despite the decent crowd of shoppers.

I went on a field trip today with my daughter's class . I would never recommend this place , the…read morestaff was very rude to another class that we were with who had special needs , the teacher tried her best to keep them engaged but it was difficult as the staff had attitudes with the young students when they didn't know the answer to what they were asking. We watched the sheep get razed and there was another sheep there who was making noises and the young students were copying the nosies that the sheep were making and the staff kept yelling at them. They are young students who weren't being loud they were enjoying the time... the staff should be more patience's with students. We paid to go there to look at animals and a wool class. Over priced.

I am SO happy about having a farmer's market downtown. During the warm months, the Natick Farmer's…read moreMarket takes place on Saturdays - which is perfect if you don't have time to go grocery shopping during the weekdays. There is a wonderful variety of items to purchase with a healthy balance of produce and local goods. You can find seasonal vegetables, fruit, honey, bread, pastries, meats, seafood and gourmet spreads. Occasionally there is a vendor with unique goods like jewelry and cutting boards. There's even a knife sharpening station! As for the prices, I feel that they are completely in line with what you would pay for locally-grown produce. You can't expect to find the same prices on tomatoes as you would at Super Stop n' Shop, simply because it takes more energy and resources to grow locally and without chemical trickery. I don't know about you, but I'd rather pay a few more cents for a homegrown, grown-in-the-sun tomato than an overgrown tomato that tastes like a water balloon. Pet owners, make sure you bring someone to watch your dog while you shop. Because this is a place that sells food, bringing your pet near the tents is not permitted. (I wish there was a doggy drop-off area to help with this!)

I've purchased hand-made jewelry and handbags as well as CD's from home-town musicians. Speaking of musicians, there's always someone playing music, which entertains everyone. There are usually toddlers dancing to the tunes. My suggestion would be to offer more ready-to-eat meals. I would like to be able to grab that day's lunch and bring it home to serve.

Went here this Saturday and I was disappointed. There wasn't much to it. Yes, I did walk away…read morewith some fantastic tomatoes and onions but I paid too much for them. I spoke to the woman at the stand for the Wayside Inn and asked if there was more coming. She said lots of farms want to come but she turned them down because she didn't want to give the two small stands that were there too much competition. WHAT? Instead, she's trying to attract different kinds of product and crafts and such... Okay, this isn't a craft fair, it's a FARMER'S MARKET. Bring in the farmers! Competition drive down prices and adds variety (even with goods that might be the same basic food, there are differences from farm to farm), which brings more people. I want choice! At least one of the two farms represented is actually down the road and has it's own shop with more variety anyway. There is no reason to bother going to this farmer's market.

I was also angry because I took cash out of an ATM and paid a fee just to try to use it here! Blah, there was nothing worth buying Also as mentioned in Dawn's review, we asked about more stands and the owner turned prospective farmers down? Seriously? From a business point thats really just dumb. She said something about giving too much competition and they already make a lot of money with the small stand they already have but they really didn't have much to get excited about! I won't drive from the city to come here, and if Dawn makes me go again, I will slap her. Smarten up and get some more farmers in! Variety is the spice of life.
