This review is mostly for people bringing young kids here for the Pumpkin Farm. There are a ton of…read morethings for you to do. From a petting zoo to hayrides. It was packed to the gills on the day we went, but lines were reasonable and there is a ton of space to spread out. The food services were typical fair stuff - nothing good or bad. The shop at the entrance has a TON of farm fresh food. From home-made jellies to fresh apple cider. this stuff is fantastic! If you are a group of adults only, stop at the store, but give a pass to the Halloween Pumpkin Farm.

I came out here to escape the heat on labor day with my son. This farm is open every day except…read moreThanksgiving and Christmas. It is about 1.5 hours north of Phoenix. When you arrive, you first pass through the farm market. They have lot of shelves filled with locally made pasta sauces, honeys, salsas, wines, and fridges/freezers with meats and pies. They have a little cafe there to order sandwiches or to grab a take away box with fruits or veggies or a pastry. There is a little table to sit down and eat. All of the staff in the store is super friendly. When you walk through to the farm, you first come to the chicken coop. There are chickens walking around outside and we even saw some eggs there! Next to the chickens is an enclosure with goats. There are food dispensers there if you want to feed them. There is a greenhouse close by as well. When you walk past the goat and chicken enclosures, you pass by some play structures for kids and then behind that there are rows of crops that you can pick from (you might want to pick up a basket from the store before heading out there if you are planning on picking a lot!) there are rows of tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, okra, and I'm sure there is more too. When we came back in from the farm, we ordered some sandwiches for lunch. They were all very good! Since I came here all the way from Phoenix, I would have liked to have seen more farm animals and I was really hoping too that the "grain train" I had seen in some of the photos would have been available to ride.

The Edge of Nowhere Farm (EON) is an inspiration to farm in the desert. This is the lifestyle I…read morealways wanted. I found out about EON farm through YouTube. I started watching and learning how to grow certain plants in the desert. What was awesome is they offered a farm tour at no cost. Additionally, you can sign-up for butchering classes. Also, they sell harvested chickens, turkeys, and pork. It has to be pre-ordered. To get more information about the farm. The website is down below. EON Farm: https://www.edgeofnowherefarm.com

My 75 year old mother loves Christmas lights. She stays with us in Phoenix during the winter so we…read morelook for activities to do as a family; me, my husband, our adult son, and my mom. The lights, music, activities, vendors were all good in general which is why I'm giving 3 stars. Except for the items that follow, this would be a very wonderful experience. The part that decreased the rating is the Christian nationalism. Nothing says "birth of our Savior, peace on Earth, good will to mankind" like the juxtaposition of the manger scene across from the American war and killing machine, complete with tanks and paratroopers and the police. And of the 10 songs they kept on loop, 2 were nationalist songs. One of the songs was literally the military recruiting jingles from the 1980s recruitment commercials. The second song was the Toby Keith Trump campaign song "Proud to be an American" . What does that have to do with Jesus, Mary and Joseph? The 10 songs looped every 30 minutes. That means every child there heard those two songs about 4 times in 2 hours. Christofascist propaganda at its worst directed toward children. The USA is the largest human rights violator on the planet, the literal antithesis of Christ and his message of peace and love. The last thing there were small animals without warm accommodations. They should put down some clean straw maybe more enclosure for the babies, or put them up at sunset. The Bible also states that we are to be good stewards to the animals on this planet. https://lightsatthefarm.com/

Want honey that slaps harder than your grandma's chancla? Head to Honey Hive Farms…read more Tim, the owner, is part beekeeper, part stand-up comic, and part honey wizard. He's friendly, hilarious, and knows more about bees than Google. Ask him anything--just be ready to laugh and learn. The stand is outdoors with plenty of fresh air and ample parking--so you can roll up stress-free and leave with a trunk full of sweet goodness. The rustic, open-air vibe just adds to the magic. The ambiance? It's part of the charm and makes the whole experience feel like a sweet little escape from the city buzz. They've got flavors like Wildflower, Orange, Cactus, Mesquite, Cat's Claw, Clover... and then there's Suicide Honey--my absolute fave. Bold name, bolder flavor. It's golden, smooth, and wildly delicious. The only honey I eat or recommend. Yes, it's pricier than the grocery store squeeze bottle--but it's worth every penny. You're getting handcrafted, local, liquid gold. They also sell pollen, queen bees (yep, royalty), and offer beekeeping classes if you're ready to join the hive. Bottom line? This place is the bee's knees. Buzz over and treat yourself.
