Although the farm is small and has its charm, our experience at a recent birthday party was…read moreunfortunately overshadowed by the behavior of a staff member who claimed to be the owner. She was rude to several guests, which created an uncomfortable atmosphere. Most of our party parked in the overflow parking lot, which is clearly marked with multiple signs. However, during the event, the employee walked over and padlocked both gates, preventing anyone from accessing their vehicles. We were told to reach out when we were ready to leave so she could unlock the gates. When the party ended, I texted her as instructed, but she refused to open the gates. She claimed no such arrangement had been made and told us we would have to walk all the way to the front entrance and then back to our vehicles, instead of simply unlocking the gates. This situation was frustrating and unnecessary, especially after being given different instructions earlier. While the location itself is nice, the lack of professionalism and poor communication significantly impacted our overall experience.

I've been to several pumpkin patch experiences in the area now, and I'm convinced this one is the…read morebest value for your money. Highlights include: feeding the rescue animals, getting a pumpkin to take home included in admission, and browsing the unique gift shop. I also liked that we didn't have to buy tickets in advance, even on a weekend, and there's more shade when it's still toasty in October. The only thing they're missing is a corn maze. I highly recommend checking this place out, whether you have little ones or you're just looking for an autumnal date or photo op. Wear comfy shoes and budget yourself about 2 hours for this experience.

I've lived in Tempe for so long and had no idea this was here! I saw there were beautiful grounds…read moreyou can walk around so decided to check it out this morning while the weather is still so nice. Gotta get that outside time in! The farm was easy to find and had clear signage to follow for parking. I walked around the grounds a bit and enjoyed the flowers. The salvia especially stood out as looking so healthy! And of course, the lavender - a plant I always struggle with! I stopped in the shop and picked up some lavender goodies including a blueberry lavender drink and a lavender sugar cookie. The drink is light and subtle. I appreciated that it wasn't overly sweet. Its also not carbonated. They had other flavors as well. The cookie is SO GOOD. Next time I'm getting 2! The shop is cute and has a lot to look at, and the woman working was friendly and helpful. There are water features and lots of seating areas around. I took my drink and cookie to a seating area and just enjoyed the scenery. I asked one of the staff members -- all really friendly and welcoming! - and yes you could bring a sandwich and enjoy it here. Make a whole meal and get a cookie! They do tours of the mansion, which looks quite impressive and I look forward to learning about its history. There are also soap and candle classes and various seasonal events. I'll definitely keep a watch on the calendar!

Even though the outside area wasn't large, we spent an hour here taking the time to just enjoy the bridges, plants, water and of course, lavender. You must go to the gift shop and SMELL EVERYTHING! Even though they're a little pricey, the items there are so unique, and you get a cute little gift bag with it. The bathroom is in the gift shop if you need it. They have a variety of paid events too like making soap, tours, and tea parties if you wanted to do more than just walk around. As far as I can tell, they change it up frequently too so you'll never get bored!

We've ordered hay from Shrader over the last couple years, and they've been GREAT to work with!…read more Response is prompt & professional, and hay quality is good with zero weeds and well-packed flakes, which you don't always get with bermuda. We have kind of a tight fit to get the squeeze under our hay shelter, and Billy is an EXPERT at making all the right tiny adjustments to get the load of hay in with no risk to the structure. (If you are considering building a hay shelter, there are many considerations. Don't find out the squeeze truck won't fit when your first hay delivery arrives!) ;-)

I bought one of their organic candles just to add a little extra to my room before my boyfriend…read morecame over for the first time and I was really surprised. I honestly didn't expect anything from this company as I haven't heard about them before but this candle smelled sooo good. I got the "A lil suga on top" candle before I lit the candle it smelled good but after I lit it the smell filled the room. And the jar it came in was super cute. Next one i'm going to get is the "Going on a vaca" candle.

Gilbert used to be my favorite but it's become too trendy/crowded. I went at the start (9am) and…read morealready it was full of people with strollers & dogs. It's such a tight area that it doesn't lend itself to a nice leisurely stroll from booth to booth. It's a shame because it used to make for a nice Saturday morning activity to bring out of town guests to. One of my favorite vendors was asked not to bring jewelry as there were so many other vendors selling jewelry. Hers is NOTHING like the others so it's ridiculous that they even told her that. Oh well, like everything else that gets too big, I'll just take my shopping elsewhere.

I was going to wait for my photos back from my wedding to write this review, but I can't take it…read moreanymore! I got married at Modern Farm in March, and it was an incredible experience. If you're considering getting married here, do it! You will not regret it. First, the venue is just beautiful. There's a big white barn with concrete floors (and air conditioning!), which is where we had our ceremony. Plenty of bathrooms, gorgeous bride and grooms quarters. The lawn is huge and green and lovely, and lined with mature trees. It was 90 degrees on my wedding day but it was perfectly comfortable on the property thanks to all the shade from the trees. Parking is limited on site, but there are side streets to park down. The DoubleTree nearby provides a free shuttle. We had 100 or so guests and didn't have any problems. We encouraged carpooling, provided parking maps with Sean's help, and told guests not to block driveways or park too close to stop signs. It's in a residential area, so be mindful of the neighbors. Ok, second, Sean was an incredible host. Having our wedding there felt like having it at a friend's house. Sean was so easy-going and opened the property to us so many times to let us scheme and meet with vendors (many of whom were recommendations from Sean and were outstanding!) On the morning of our wedding, we had a couple acrylic signs that we had made that weren't working with the easels that we brought. Sean said no problem, grabbed some wood, cut it, routed out the middle, and MADE US STANDS for the signs that were absolutely perfect. Can you believe? He's such a good guy, and it's things like that that really make you feel like you're in the right place. Thanks again, Sean and family!

So let me start out by saying it is a very nice space. But there was a HUGE lack of…read moreprofessionalism. We decided against using this venue even though it would of been nice for our wedding. So I emailed them from the "contact us" section on their website asking to view the property then received a response the next day and after a few emails back and forth we scheduled an appointment even though brief. I was told to text them a reminder. So after texting them a reminder on the day of, no response, then later I sent another text while on the way. They called me and told me they have no memory of scheduling my appointment but that they were up the street and would come meet me there. Then told me to just look around myself and call if I have questions. So my fiancé and I were just walking around the venue alone not knowing what's what. We felt like our wedding or business wasn't even important. We get they're probably busy and deal with a ton of people but just a big lack of respect. A wedding is a special time to a couple they want to feel like it's special and not a burden.
