Over the years, we've done apple, strawberry, and blueberry picking here, but the fall pumpkin festival is the best. There are tons of activities for the little ones - hayrides, a corn maze, farm animals, and more. Tubby's BBQ is on-site if you need lunch. The line can be long, but it moves quickly. It is on the pricier side, but well worth it. The farm is beautiful, the experience is fun, and it's a wonderful way to get the kids outdoors.

My friends and I had a beautiful triple date during their fair. This place is great for dates,…read morefamilies, friends, and has lots of fun activities for kids. Although the Apple selections were few, we did gather some pink lady apples, which were a huge hit! Sadly, the Gala apples were not doing well this season so we didn't get to pick any of those. They have a great place to order some fresh cider and yummy apple cider donuts. Food is also sold there and I heard that it's delicious. Note that the entry fee does not cover your cost to pick apples so prepare to spend around $60 total. Overall, this place was great and I cannot wait to return!

I've taken several of the 2-hour cooking classes at Chocolate and Tomatoes Farm, and I've loved…read moreevery one! The classes are fun, educational, and well organized. Mark creates a friendly, welcoming atmosphere and the small class size allows you to succeed in your creation. I usually go solo, and meet such nice people, some of whom attend with a friend, or spouse, and others who are solo like me. I love the wide variety of classes: I've learned pickling, pasta making from scratch, how to make creams and curds, and about different mushrooms and ways to prepare them. You also get plenty of delicious goodies to take home, which is a great bonus. Definitely money well spent--I can't wait to sign up for another class!

We had time to prep the vegetables and fruits we were taking home after class. The variety in ingredients and base flavors were really good and fresh as they grow most of the fruit and vegetables onsite. There's plenty of parking and bring some money in case you'll like to buy chocolates at the end of the class.

One of my favorite markets. I've always loved the Loudoun Station area -- its wide, spacious, and…read morehas modern dining options. I've been here to this market once on opening day, when it was packed, and two or three times since then. I came here on Mothers Day this year, and bought some tea for my mom, who loved it. That said, I will not be coming here again. Or rather, I will be barred from coming anywhere near here, on threat of arrest. Completely random and bizarre. Comstock (who owns or oversees this farmers market?) is the worst company ever. They are bullies and served me with a trespassing notice for absolutely no reason. I am apparently now banned from all shops and venues at Loudoun Station in Ashburn. It's been months since I've last stepped foot there, and I treat everyone I meet with kindness and respect. I have reviewed Famous Toastery, Burger 21, and AMC all as 5-stars before -- check my review history. Now I am not allowed to step foot on these premises, for absolutely no reason at all (see attached image). Let others be warned. I have firsthand experience with Comstock, and can truthfully say they are a dishonest, fraudulent company that hands out trespass notices to complete strangers who are actually paying good money to the businesses they own. Well, I'll certainly be taking my money (and business) elsewhere. Stay far away!
