When we arrived, on June 17, 2026, prime season for strawberries and snap peas, we were greated by a friendly young woman named Erin, who operated the admission booth. She provided us with two small containers for the snap peas and two larger for the strawberries and explained that we can pick whatever we want, and only pay for what we harvest. We acquired some beautifully fresh snap peas and freshly sweet strawberries. We visited the store, which offered typical farm store goods. There was nothing overly impressive about the store, but it is worth a look. We loved this place and even though it is more than an hour away, this will be our go to place to pick your own fruits and vegetables. We are looking forward to bluberries season in early July!

Huge place and great to bring the kids…read more We went for strawberry picking for Father's Day. I like that you only pay for what you pick. No entrance fee per person and no parking fee (Unlike many other farms). The downside was that there were not many strawberries. The ones we did pick were already wilting within 24hours. I think we caught the end of picking season. The farm is about 1/4 mile down from the market /cafe/brewery. The market is cute and has a lot of pantry items as well as fresh produce. They also serve lunch (chicken sandwich, etc). I was surprised at how expensive everything was. It was $18 for the chicken sandwich. It was well fried and came with a good portion of salad. However, the chicken itself was very small. It also took 20 min to be served. Another option is the airstream in the back. They were selling hot dogs. They had some local dogs that were pretty tasty. The brewery on premise was great. They had a play area to keep the kids occupied, tables/chairs and the World Cup was on. Can't really get better than that. There is also a goat pen in the back of the market. You can pay for some food and the kids can feed the goats. A lot of places charge you just to see the goats. This place doesn't haggle you like that. Great place. I wish they were closer to the city!

Specifically, I want to shout out our wine guide who took us through several of their wines. She made our experience there memorable with her amazing personality, charm, and humor. The space is small but offers a variety of options to hang out and enjoy their wines and ciders - inside by the fireplace, outside on the screen porch, or outdoors on the patio. We loved our time at Hilltop and hope to return.

They do sell apples (and much more) in the store. I tried the Margherita pizza, 3 mushroom white, and sausage special (housemade bratwurst). Pizzas were excellent. Brat was tasty but pretty small portion for the price (one link cut in half and some cornbread). Also got some of the cider doughnuts, which were good, but wish they were hot. You can get hot ones a few miles away at Jenkins-Lucien. Fresh cider was amazing!

The fields are in the sun, so make sure you bring a bottle of water to drink if it's a hot day. If you bring the bucket back on your next visit, it will only cost $15! Can't wait to return!

I was amazed that one person can handle almost 5 acres of land in sometimes harsh weather conditions and consistently produce great varieties of different fruits, vegetables and even unique decorative flowers, that you won't be able to see in citi's flowers shops. Another positive aspect is that Chris does NOT grow any GMO crops, which is a rarity now. Almost 98% of corn in USA is genetically modified and full of pesticides and Monsanto Round-up herbicides, and it's becoming increasingly hard to find good Organic Farmers who think about the environment and people that consume their produce, and Chris is definitely one of them. Overall I would highly suggest to come and visit this Beautiful Farm, bring your kids to see how fruits and veggies are grown, and buy some fresh produce right from the field.

After reviewing the details more carefully, I found the overall value to be extremely disappointing. The total cost for a half beef share comes out to well over $15 per pound for bulk meat once everything is added up. That pricing includes a large amount of ground beef, roasts, and lower-value cuts, yet it is priced closer to boutique steakhouse rates than a traditional farm share. Even accounting for grass-fed practices, this is significantly higher than comparable farms offering transparent pricing and clear cut breakdowns. The "free freezer" is effectively built into the price, which feels misleading rather than a genuine bonus. A standard chest freezer costs a few hundred dollars retail, yet the per-pound meat cost remains far above market averages even after accounting for that. What concerns me most is the lack of clarity around true take-home weight, cut breakdowns, and how pricing compares to regional norms. Bulk buying is usually meant to offer better value and transparency. That is not the case here. I would strongly recommend that potential customers do the math carefully, compare with other local farms, and ask detailed questions before committing a large deposit. The marketing is polished, but the value simply does not match the price being charged.
