Back to Underwood Family Farms again for Strawberry picking! I do not know what it is, but these…read morestrawberries are some of the best I've had. Do they taste better because I picked them myself? I don't know! Yes? Regardless, they are delicious. The staff here is always so friendly and they are so welcoming to large groups. This is a great place to run the kids around and there are plenty of activities you can do for free or a small cost, like animal feeding, rides etc. My son loves all the playgrounds! Definitely recommend Underwood if you are looking for a party venue! The kids love it and it's a beautiful space!

I stop at their cute farm store to pick up fresh produce and see what goodies they offer. Everything looks so fresh and displayed very cute. I enjoy seeing what they offer seasonally and making new recipes at home from the seasonal produce i purchased. Sometimes it's a little pricey. That's the only downfall to me. I would buy more of its wasn't as expensive. But they do offer a punch card for frequent shoppers. I always make sure to use my punch card. I also enjoy walking to the side of the game stand and visiting the cute animals. It's a small little quick trip compared to the main farm but I always enjoy it.

Conejo Family Farm's Pumpkin Patch is the perfect spot to soak up all the fall vibes!…read more If you're looking for a relaxed, low-key day, weekdays are the way to go. But if you're in the mood for a lively atmosphere, weekends are buzzing with pop-up coffee stands, local beer stalls, and tons of happy families. I even heard they had over 5,000 guests in a single day last weekend -- such an incredible turnout for this Camarillo patch! Entry is $10 a person unless you're under the age of 5, then it's free. Once you step inside the grounds, the fun doesn't stop. From picking pumpkins (I snagged the cutest little white ones) to exploring the tall corn maze and strolling through the sunflower fields, there's something for everyone. At just $1 a stem, you can build your own sunflower bouquet, which makes this experience extra special. The kids will love the mini maze and bouncy houses, while adults can enjoy the festive energy and beer. Honestly, I had the best time and totally recommend adding it to your fall bucket list. Make sure to keep an eye on their Instagram or website as that's where you can find updating postings of specialized events and pop up. Reminder: the weekends are when they have the animal petting zoo, coffee stalls and beer garden. The weekdays appear to be more lowkey and don't have all of these options - but if you watch their website, they do have mid week events like yoga in the pumpkin patch etc.

My family and I drove out to see this place last weekend because we love animals and had heard…read moreabout it for years. We arrived to find parking along a busy highway (?!?), with golf carts shuttling visitors to and from the entrance, just a few feet away from cars whizzing past. That was weird. Then we got to the sort of holding area where they keep guests until their reservation time. Before we went in, the owner came out to greet us...sort of. She gave us a basic history of the place, but before she did, she wished us "happy pride" and told us all about how virtuous she was, as if everyone should be celebrating? Weird and inappropriate to say the least. The last thing she did before allowing us the entrance we'd paid handsomely for, was to lecture us about becoming vegans. Which is one of my biggest pet peeves about vegans to begin with. Then she stood at the entrance and offered everyone literature on veganism as we walked past. I declined. Wholly inappropriate, offensive and off putting. I didn't pay to be lectured about something I disagree with. It was nice to (finally) see and interact with the animals, but some of the volunteers were too much. I understand they're used to dealing with idiots every weekend, but some of the instructions they were giving were flat out dangerous, like having babies (maybe 18 months old) feed carrots to grabby, nippy horses. Bad idea when little hands aren't any bigger than the carrots. Most (not all) volunteers were just a bit too power trippy and under-educated for my taste. I will say the facilities were pretty clean and appeared well kept, but the horses and donkeys were filthy and in dire need of grooming. Give your visitors brushes and curry combs and show them how to brush the animals. Win-win for everyone. It was nice to hang out with the animals, but most of the people I could do without. Probably won't be back again.

The place is not huge but there are a TON of ostriches and emus to feed and look at as well some bunnies. My kids loved feeding the animals and like I said there is no shortage of them to feed (especially in the AM for breakfast) I do regret not going an ostrich egg to try bc we were staying in the area and we had a kitchen to cook it in. We spend a couple hours there bc our kids took a lot of time feeding and we took a break for lunch. They have a few picnic tables available. We brought our own lunch (they don't serve food) Then gave a small gift shop and some photo ops spread around the farm. Super fun morning activity to get everyone excited.

The Big Red Barn has a lot of fresh fruit, baked goods, and other treats to choose from. The real fun is when you pick the fruit yourself though. We got ourselves some sweet blackberries to take home. Out on the farm, we had the best tractor ride and learned some fun facts about fruits, as well as slid on the huge slide and played some outdoor games. While we were here, we ate some oakie pies. My favorite is thanksgiving dinner. It tastes just like November-- Turkey, stuffing, potatoes, and gravy. They have other tasty savory pies like the chicken pot pie, blueberry pulled pork, and the breakfast pie. Of course, you could get some sweet ones too! The service is very friendly and the farm truly has fun for everyone! I can't wait to come back for stone fruit season.

We arrived on a Saturday afternoon. The olive oil tasting farm is located in a nice neighborhood area in downtown Los Olivos. There is parking accessible in the back parking lot and limited parking next to the olive oil tasting area and boutique shop. As soon as we parked and headed to the olive oil tasting area, we were greeted by a very friendly and hospitable staff member. I appreciated all the information she told us about the property and instructions about the olive oil tasting experience. Their complimentary olive oil tasting was unique and unlike any other olive oil tasting I had ever done before. There were 10 different olive oils to taste from. You are given a freshly made sourdough bread slice to go along with a tray with a menu sheet of all the olive oils. Some of the olive oils that stood out to me were the white truffle, garlic, and Italian honey. We were then encouraged to explore the rest of the property where there was a charcuterie cart, pottery vendor, and complimentary wine tasting on the other side of the premises. This enhanced our olive oil tasting experience even more. The rest of the property was beautiful as there were a lot of tables and chairs for guests to enjoy. Overall we enjoyed our experience at Olive + Lavender Farms. The staff were nice and accommodating. The vibe was relaxing and inviting. The boutique shop were selling a lot of wonderful and distinctive local products in the area. The olive oils price point are in the higher end. Next time we are in the area we would love to come back.

Choosing Vega Vineyard & Farm for our October 2025 wedding was one of the best decisions we made…read more The venue is absolutely gorgeous, but it was the people who made us fall in love with it. From day one, Jimmy and Jessi made us feel welcomed, cared for, and supported, and that feeling never changed. Every corner of the property felt like something out of a dream. From exchanging vows surrounded by stunning scenery to celebrating under the stars in the courtyard, each moment was more beautiful than we imagined. What makes Vega so special is that it feels like more than just a venue. It's a place we'll continue to visit for years to come, celebrating anniversaries and future milestones. The food was incredible. Our guests are still talking about the salmon, roasted lamb, fresh salads, and amazing orzo. Every dish was beautifully prepared, and the family-style meal created such a warm and connected atmosphere. We truly wouldn't change a single thing. Our wedding day was perfect, and we will forever be grateful to Jimmy, Jessi, and the entire Vega team for making it such an unforgettable experience.

Jessi coordinated with us for the months leading up to the event, and her planning and communication were fantastic every step of the way. On the day of the event, Kelly handled coordination and the bar, which made it easy for us to sit back and relax. Beyond the great service, the day itself was a blast. Our employees had an amazing time! Riding the tractor was a hit, visiting with the Scottish Highland Mini Bull was so much fun, and our animal encounter with the goat was a favorite too. The lunch was great -- the sandwiches were served on homemade bread that was really tasty. The setting was perfect, with ample shade, a nice breeze, and comfortable temperatures. If you're looking for a venue for a company party or special event, I can't recommend Vega Vineyard & Farm highly enough. Huge thanks to Jessi, Kelly, and the whole team for making our celebration so memorable!
