Now it's a tie between the Peach Cream and Raspberry Cream pies. (The peach is only available in the summer, so don't miss it.) The apple cider is still the best.

This place changed my life. Came here in the Fall for pumpkin picking (off the vine, as is the…read moreproper way according to my friend) and had the best time. It was a perfect day, lots of pumpkins left despite being a few weeks out from Halloween. The store had lots of homemade goods, including this pear-flavored candle that was absolutely delicious and not too strong. They had lots of little pumpkins for decorations that were a good price. They sold baked potatoes with horseradish and corn on the cob that were SOOOO fresh and tasty. The baked potato just melted in your mouth and it warmed my soul. Very cute place, lots of picnic tables, a big truck of pumpkins to take pictures with... This place helped make autumn solidify as my favorite season. It's not too crowded and maybe not the best for kids though.

They speak of small esoteric farming, canning, baking and shelving for the passers by, for the community that have come here. Well, I'm not only a bit put off by that assumption that I hold dear and entered Schmitts with, but I've lost my grip and spilled my tea. As to not point the dirty end of the tomatoe stake at this one establishment, I'll open with a broad brush stroke to encapsulate east end Long Island road side merchants. "Y'all are a royal rip". Where in the world are you getting pricing from? A loaf of focchia and some cookies was $34.00 and the good girlfriend just glanced towards me as if to say "please don't say anything ". The first potential comment would have been to smile, perhaps an eye roll and follow with a "thank you but no thank you" Second potential comment which almost landed was "crooks, bag my sh*t, I'm never coming back again". Which is exactly what I've decided to do, but I knew it was coming in the periphery. Poorly tagged items, seeking the Local catch work too hard inside and out just in perfect time for seasonal shoppers to hear the spiders lullaby. I'm sure Schmitt could give a rats batookas of my opinions here, they're shoveling money out the back door and into their extra homes and boats and all the big boys toys. It's a memory that is not easy to digest, as the inside customer service was MTA-esq as it relates to sincerity.

This is the farm that used to do the "all you can carry" but things have obviously changed in 2020 and dogs are also no longer allowed. Now that we're all upset; we know why it's a 3 star review. The plot is huge and goes on forever. Even through covid; family's flocked to the farm to pick up their pumpkins & hay stacks. We walked through with masks even outside and at a 6ft distance. The disappointment this year was the crop. It took forever (even though we hit the farm first week of October) to find a pumpkin that wasn't already rotting. Something is either in the water; like they drowned or animals ate them or too much hand sanitizer! I have no idea but as we turned them over they had holes & dings, cuts and sad spots all over. We accumulated a bunch of pumpkins all different colors which was nice that they have an assortment of gourds and textures. Damaged or not we picked what we could. Some rotted within a week from too much damage but the pics were fun to take and my mom actually enjoyed trying to find one that wasn't gashed. Lol. The little things in life actually just made me feed back that 4th star.

Located in a beautiful barn is their wonderful winery where they offer wine tastings with plenty of seating for large parties. They also have cider, which was quite tasty. We had a large group and this was the perfect spot to host us all so we could sit together and relax. This would be a spectacular venue for an event... specifically a wedding. We would highly recommend stopping in here if you are in the area. There's also a cool farm with animals for the littles, or any animal lovers, and a farm stand with fresh local fruits, veggies and cider donuts (during the fall). Lentz_explore

Yes they have 2 Highland Cows. The baby goats were our favorite! Then MJ got lost in the Hedge Maze lol, see video below. We enjoyed roasted corn on the cob and some fresh lemonade.

Have been back a few times since. Once pulled in off the road... its such a lovely country farm with a big enclosed farm stand. Outside find lots of cheerful displays of seasonal farm items. Hay, tractors, pumpkins when in season, flowers and more. They have a nice selection of their own grown fruit and vegetables and carry other local farms produce as well. They have small signs clearly stating local, or "our own" which are always a treat to have direct from the farm. Helen's makes pies too. It's also nearby Brierrmere's down the block. The night before Thanksgiving, Helen's offered an alternative option to the long lines for pies. In summer I once tried a mixed berry pie. This time tried an apple and pumpkin. This was the year for less baking and smaller lines... this made it easy. Much appreciated. Pies seemed not too homemade. Crisp sliced apple with the same gel like cinnamon on most of the apple pies out here. Not too homemade tasting. Seemed more commercial frozen and bake. So for true homemade pies, try nearby Junda's or Briermere. For an ok assortment of grab and go pie, this worked. The lady's are sort of pleasant but leaning more toward efficient and courteous. Not the warmest vibe here on different visits. No one seems genuinely friendly like you might want at a small town shop. Once asked about a pie, and one woman sort of mocked my question joking "its a fruit pie" slightly sarcastic. The cashier on a another visit wouldn't show a pie, by opening a box citing the owners rules. So took my chances. Lol. That shouldn't deter you, its clean, fresh and pretty to look at. A nice stop off when touring at the beginning of the North Fork.

I sampled some of the available apples and they were not that sweet but I had already paid for the box ($67 for one peck) so I just picked the ones that were ok. I also picked lots of string beans, so it wasn't a complete waste. I was told it was a rip off but I enjoyed the experience. Fast forward a few days and now the apples are very sweet and crisp! Better than what you get at the supermarket for sure. The green beans are also fresh and not like the mushy bags you get at Trader Joe's. There's nothing like farm to table. They also have a nice bakery with excellent cheese bread and pies. Very fresh and warm when we bought them. The location is closer to Nassau and Manhattan than other farms on Long Island. We wanted to go to Milk Pail but it was a longer drive.

The store is not well-lit though it's a barn so take it with a grain of salt. They have some unique items if you take a look. Came here last year during the pandemic after Mother's Day weekend, there were plenty of plants and vegetable plants to choose from. Guess not a lot of people came to buy plants last year so we got a unique items last year including black cherry tomatoes, yellow watermelon, various types of lavenders, and bunch of other plants. We took a chance on a dried up banana tree that was for $10 and gave it as a gift as well as the other items we brought ($4 each, I believe). The tree survived. It's currently thriving and we are waiting for the tree to produce bananas. Last year and this year they also had baby chicks in the greenhouse. It's makes my day to see the chicks and you know it's Springtime. We went again this year after Mother's Day weekend and there were a few places and vegetables available. I picked up lavender grotto ($5), citronella ($5), and some succulents ($10). No dying or last leg plants this year. The choices were more limited since folks came out to buy the fruits and vegetables early this year now that places are opening up again. Guess we need to go early.

I appreciate their loyalty system, where you earn 1 point per $1 spent.
