I went to a friend's weekend in Weston and was told I had to have a "drinking hat." So, off to The…read moreCeltic Ranch I went--and I found the perfect one! This little shop is adorable, with so much to see. The staff were super helpful, letting me try on a bunch of hats until I found the one that was just right. I ended up with a handmade hat from Ireland, and it was so comfy, I wore it the whole weekend--whether I was drinking or not! At $75 for that kind of craftsmanship, it was a total steal! I'll definitely be back next year for another one. If you're ever in Weston, make sure to check it out!

Short story: Wife and I saw The Banshees of Inisherin and fell in love with the clothing style. I'm…read moreIrish and my wife thought it would look good on me. So we looked online for some items. Amazon.com had a huge bunch of cheap Indonesian knock-offs for sale and they all looked low quality. Eventually, we perfected our search and up popped Celtic Ranch. Ordering the correct size is difficult, and the cheap apparel from southeast Asia, is made for people who are quite a bit smaller height-wise. So I ordered some items and quickly determined what size worked for me, so I sent some items back for the correct size. One item I ordered off Amazon and it was a bit convoluted to do a return, but dealing directly with Celtic Ranch was a dream. I was able to get an RMA and within days the correct sizes were shipped! All of the items, from the vests to the scarf, to the hat and grandfather shirts are high quality and are durable. Not only do I want to order more items for me and my lass, but if we're ever in the neighborhood we want to pop in to the store and say hello! Great job, Celtic Ranch. You do the Irish proud!

We had been going to another nearby orchard for apple picking, but the shine wore off that and Weston Red Barn Farm is our new pick. It's a great little escape from Kansas City that's under an hour drive from downtown itself. They have: -Tons of pumpkins -A maze -Goats, chickens, horses, pigs, and other animals -Cider slushies, candies, and fall goodies While we most recently visited on a Monday (kids were off school), the weekends are where it's at here. They have more food options, pony rides, and other fun stuff for the kids. It's understandably quieter during the week. Oh and let's not forget the overall setting: bucolic, relaxing, and pretty beautiful for Missouri countryside is I may say so myself. I totally see why people get married here.

I have to give a lower rating this year because they don't have much on their website as far as Covid guidelines. I reached out to see if they'd allow visitors to walk to the pumpkin patch to avoid the crowded wagon and they said no. I also asked if the wagons would have distance between seats and they said no. I realize outside is a little safer but I don't want to be forced onto a wagon with strangers who may not be wearing masks. This review is more for people who are wondering about their guidelines and if it's safe. They do usually have pre-picked pumpkins for sale that you don't have to ride a wagon to get to which is nice but I think I'll have to find a pumpkin patch that has some actual guidelines for Covid this year.

I would love to buy online and ship now that I'm out of town.

Throw in some cool home accents (I was so close to nabbing the martini olive throw rug) and some other kitschy gems and you have a great spot. Parking is west side street stuff, so you're on your own. The staff is super friendly and always making suggestions, and their playlists are phenomenal.
