They provide you with clippers and a bucket and you create your florals. $15 for a half bucket and $30 for full. The farm does seasonal events as well so be sure to check them out on social media! Their collection of CBD and hemp products is impressive (see photos for a small example). You won't regret checking out this local farm in any season. Thanks, Blackberry Ridge, for a fun Friday! We'll be back for sure!

I was invited to Blackberry Ridge Farm for a luncheon and a wreath making event. The farm is really…read morehard to see from the road but after driving down a quiet path I noticed all the possibilities Blue Ridge farm had. There's lots of land, two protected flower tends and a beautiful room inside, which can host a small intimate but beautiful event. The inside space is clean and well-maintained and even the bathrooms are comfy and cozy. One of the owners Julia accompanied by her assistant Kendell showed me around and told me all about blackberry Ridge Farm. Blackberry Ridge Farm is a CBD and hemp farm where they harvest these herbs to make natural products as well as a cut flower farm. Speaking of cut flowers, while I was there, I saw customers picking up the most beautiful cut flower arrangements. They also have a large selection of dried flowers which we intern used to create beautiful, decorative heart-shaped wreaths. If you are looking for a small, intimate place to host a gathering or a place to do a hands-on, creative event with your friends, family or coworkers give blackberry Ridge Farms a call they've got you covered.

Yes! 5 stars over and over! Such a great family friendly place! Sweetwater has a variety of animals…read moresuch as horses, chickens, and pigs. The animals are healthy and happy. There are piles of hay left out for kids to feed the horses and also a hand washing station near the barn. There are tons of toys peppered throughout. The toy lawnmowers were a big hit with my group. There are many wagons available for anyone to use. Many picnic tables make sitting down for lunch easy. There is a shaded sandpit with rocking chairs around it for the adults to relax. There is a little stream of water for kids to play in as well. Plenty of parking and lovely staff. It was $7/adult and kids under 2 are free.

Lots of parking, no lines for food, and plenty of room to roam in the pumpkin patch. We grabbed a wagon and some clippers and found a pumpkin to cut off the vine. There are plenty of pre-cut pumpkins too if you'd rather just pick one that way (and take some cute pics). The wood-fired pizza was SO good and fairly priced. We really enjoyed the salsiccia pie, but all of them sounded delicious. And had to get a half dozen cider donuts for the road, obviously. I'm looking forward to returning when our kids are a bit older to try more of the family-friendly activities!

I absolutely love this set up even more than the last location! There is so much for kids to do here and lots for adults too. We picked our pumpkins for the season and considering the amount of people here, there were still many great looking pumpkins. The lines were too long for the donuts/food so I didn't get to try any but I am hoping to eventually try the cider donut in the future! Definitely bring your friends and family here to check out the Hall Family Farm. Side note- I know the Halls from many years ago and they are a wonderful family! If you see them around be sure to meet them!!!

Super fun experience at the pumpkin patch!!! We visited on the Saturday morning before Halloween…read moreand it wasn't too packed at all!! We had fun. There is a big parking lot- but be careful, the driveway to get in is really narrow and only one car fits through at a time. There is no admission fee and it is free to walk around. You also don't need reservations. There is cornhole, picnic tables to sit at, a gift shop with local good slike honey and apples, a coffee truck, a lemonade truck and popcorn for sale. There are pumpkins everywhere of different shapes and sizes available for purchase in addition to gourds and mums. We bought a mum and it was $15. There are plenty of photo opportunities and a garden to walk around in. There is also a lot of space for kids to run around in. For an additional fee, there is a wagon ride you can take that will take you to see farm animals but we didn't do this. All in all, not as many activities in my opinion as some of the other pumpkin patches around town, but I did like how close it is to town compared to some of the other pumpkin patch options and it was super cute! The staff was all really nice too!

I love that it is family owned and they always make it seem like you're family too while visiting. This year, my family went to pick strawberries a few months ago and it was a blast.

It is a little confusing when you get there because the first tent is to sign a waiver, and then you go to another place to pay for the attractions. The farm is free to enter and has a few free activities like photo ops and play items for the kids like slides and a sandbox. We got the tick for all three paid activities. The corn maze was great. It was challenging but not too hard. My son loved the apple cannon. The wagon ride is fun but be prepared to wait since it is a small wagon and very popular. They have food trucks if you want to stay and eat lunch. Pumpkin prices were reasonable and you could even pick one from the field.

Surprised there weren't more Yelp reviews for this place!…read more Originally came for the Corn Maze, stayed for literally everything else! What a family-friendly farm to spend some time enjoying the Fall weather. Everywhere we looked, there was something for the kids to play with.

The best part was fitting in our yearly pumpkin patch tradition here, all made easy with provided wagons and apple pay! Did I mention that admission is free? Great way to pass the time with kiddos!

Shame on you Lazy 5....you break the law every time you turn someone with a service animal away. A…read morecomplaint will be filed with the ADA on behalf of my daughter and her Autism service dog. I even offered to sit in the car the entire time (with the dog) so my 2 daughters could go on the ride through experience. Just so you are aware, here is what the law says... A zoo cannot deny you entry just because you have a service dog. Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), zoos are public accommodations and must allow service dogs anywhere the general public is allowed -- with only a few narrow exceptions. --- What the ADA actually says * Zoos must admit service dogs in all public areas. US Service A... * They may only restrict a service dog from specific zones where the dog's presence would disturb or endanger the animals, such as:* Petting zoos * Walk‑through exhibits * Predator/prey enclosures * Back‑of‑house areas These restrictions must be based on real safety concerns, not fear or assumptions. The Seeing Eye * Even when an area is restricted, the zoo must provide an alternate route so you can still enjoy the exhibit. US Service A... * A zoo cannot ban service dogs from the entire facility. US Service A... --- When a zoo can deny access Only two situations allow a zoo to exclude a service dog from a specific area: * The dog is out of control (e.g., barking, lunging, not under handler control). * The dog is not housebroken. These are the only ADA‑approved reasons for exclusion from public areas. tukilost.com --- What staff are allowed to ask Legally, zoo employees may ask only: 1. "Is the dog a service animal required because of a disability?" 2. "What work or task has the dog been trained to perform?" They cannot ask for paperwork, certification, or proof. Lazy 5 Ranch is not exempt from ADA service‑animal laws -- but they are allowed to restrict service dogs from certain areas because of the unique nature of their facility. Here's the full breakdown, grounded in ADA rules and how they apply to walk‑through or drive‑through animal parks. --- ADA rules for places like Lazy 5 Ranch Under the ADA, all public accommodations must allow service dogs. Zoos, aquariums, and wildlife parks fall under this category.
