    This pumpkin patch is one of my favorite ones because of the activities, ample parking, and free admission, but I was disappointed that the sunflowers were not ready to be picked this past October. Nonetheless, it's a very family friendly place for pumpkin picking, hay ride, petting zoo and photo opportunities.

    We come here every year- it's just minutes away from our home in Rancho Bernardo but it feels like we have been transported to a farm out in the countryside. The kids really enjoyed the speediest and most adventurous hayride I've ever been on. It was busy but the lines moved quickly and the service was excellent. Memories have been made and the pumpkins are reasonably-priced.

    A pumpkin patch good for families if you don't wanna drive too far into the boonies! We came here last year and this year as well. Getting here early is key, like other pumpkin patches, otherwise you would be waiting in line. They had train ride, hayride, petting zoo with hay as feed if you wanna pay extra, sunflower fields etc. at this pumpkin patch. The prices were reasonable. The people were friendly. The patch wasn't too massive so it's manageable if you want a quick stop for photos since admission and parking was free. We had a great time here with another family. The two kiddos were chasing each other around in the sunflower fields! But if you are willing to drive farther out, the one in Valley Center is still my favorite.

    We have consistently come here the past few years as it is one of the better pumpkin patches and we have always enjoyed the amount of activities that they have! We have picked sunflowers in the past and always buy pumpkins here, which are fairly priced. They have a variety of pumpkins and gourds that you can choose from! The workers here have always been friendly and parking is ample. However, we were just here yesterday and I am taking off one star since none of the sunflowers are ready to be picked yet! They had a few rows of huge (I mean HUGE, like the size of my head) sunflowers that were past their prime and many other rows of sunflowers that have not yet budded. I believe they may be ready soon though! A very family friendly and pet friendly place to visit if you are looking for some fall festivities in San Diego, but maybe wait a bit if you wish to pick the sunflowers in addition to buying pumpkins.

    Had the greatest time! Everything was well organized, the workers were friendly and there were lots to do! The grandkids were happy and knocked out on the way home! We took lots of great pics and made lots of wonderful memories!

    Been to two pumpkin patches this year and this one has better photo ops!! They also have a sunflower field you can pick flowers from. You can purchase tickets for activities such as the petting zoo, corn maze, hay ride, etc.

    Beautiful sunflowers

    Super cute place for photo ops and pumpkin picking! My son loved the train and the hay ride. I didn't get a chance to pick any sunflowers cause my son was too occupied with running around. Definitely need to come back!

    Overall a simple but fun experience. The experience of being out in the open (vs. a converted corner of an urban parking lot) made the drive from LA worth it to go check out. Pros: 1. I liked the sunflower field. It was fun to pick our own stems ($2/each). I liked that if a stem had multiple flowers on it, it still counted as one stem. 2. I liked the corn maze. It's pretty small but was better on the inside than what I first thought walking up to it. It's not really that much of a maze, but since I've been trapped at home all year due to the pandemic, this was relatively really fun to me lol (if you are with people you like). 3. There are a few haystacks with giant pumpkins where you can take pictures to your heart's content. 4. Cute farm animals to watch, esp. the goats (but we couldn't enter the enclosure). 5. They have all kinds of pumpkin sizes. If you want a freakishly big one, they have those too. Cons: 1. It's a dirt field (and parking lot) so expect to get very dusty. 2. I was hoping to see pumpkins in the patch, but there were just a few already picked and lined up. (In fairness, I went on Halloween day, so it makes sense that everything was already harvested and sold by now).

    t was so much fun visiting the sunflower farm at Pumpkin Station in Rancho Bernardo. I highly recommend it if you're in the area or headed down to San Diego. I have never seen anything like it before and all the different colored sunflowers they had. Only $2 per sunflower and you get to cut them right off the stalk.

    Bait and switch coupon
    Jane K.

    We've been coming here for years due to not wanting to make the trek to Bates Nut Farm deep in Escondido. The sunflowers are a great photo op, and the kids have a great time picking out their pumpkins. Why the 2 stars? We have fond memories of this place but now ruined since we were treated like crap this year with whoever was running the train and his counterpart. They have a bait and switch thing going on for their mini train they have on site. The coupon on their site says one free ride per customer and the guy insisted it was per family. We were still willing to pay for the other ticket since we have two kids so we walked back to the front to buy the ticket. We showed the front desk the coupon and they agreed it is per customer. When we went back to the train the guy insisted again one customer means family. Technically we came as 4 separate families so I really didn't get what the issue was and we all purchased pumpkins. I explained even the front desk person told us to just show our coupons to the train ticket person again. He then turned away and started talking crap to the other staff member in front of other customers. A lady kindly offered to have her daughters take my younger son by himself after seeing the staff treat us like this but I was fuming by this point and had to walk away before I made a scene. Fix your coupon if you don't want this to be an issue. Don't treat your customers like crap due to not making your own fine print clear. We'll be making our trips back to Bates next year. It is far but at least we won't be dealing with staff that thinks it's okay to talk crap about their customers in front of their face after their own mishap.

    By far the best pumpkin station as it's actually attached to a small farm. We went last year and this year and decided to go earlier in the month. The U-pick sunflower fields were gorgeous and full, pumpkins were still on the vine and we had a blast with the hay ride, train and petting zoo. Absolutely worth your time. $4/tickets for the rides/petting zoo (1 adult free with each kid) and sunflowers are $2/stem

    Upick sunflowers for $1 each
    Nirvie S.

    I Love this place, I found them on a Yelp post and decided to visit. My only mistake was visiting at around 1PM so it was hot. Enjoyed doing the corn maze, did the UPick of sunflowers which I will bring back to my office. Nice place to visit with family and friends and is only a short drive from San Diego. Sunflowers Upick is 1$ per flower which I think is a great deal. Love the pumpkin ad gourd patches. Very picturesque if you want a cute photo for the family that goes great in a frame or album.

    $1 per person. It's worth a buck.

    I can't name enough good things about Be Wise Ranch. We have been using them for almost 15 years…read moreand I can't thank them enough for helping keep us eating healthy food. The deliveries are always on time, wonderful selection of fruits and veggies and handled with care. Thank you Sandra, Nery and all your workers!

    Be Wise Ranch is by far the best experience I've had with Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)…read more Years ago we were Suzie's Farm CSA devotees until they closed, and then we tried Farm Fresh to You (definitely NOT fresh!) and were a bit burned out on it. But, based on the great reviews here, in April I decided to give Be Wise a try for CSA. Initially, it took about a month to get my application processed, but after that, everything has been smooth sailing! We have an every-other-week subscription and I am always so impressed with the freshness and quality of the produce. CLEAN and CRISP spring mix, ripe peaches, the tastiest strawberries that you've ever eaten! And potatoes to die for! Yes, even something as simple as the humble potato can be a thing of glory when it is FRESH and roasted with tasty butter and herbs! Out of this world taste! I love that we can support a LOCAL family run-business, enjoy vitamin-packed ORGANIC produce and have a smaller ecological footprint than using the plastic-wrapped dead produce at the grocery store. Thanks Be Wise!

    Customer Service & U-Haul Rental Warning! I've been a long…read moretime Home Depot shopper as much as the next guy but I have to bring awareness to anyone who might be considering renting a U-Haul. Advertised on the truck says $29.99 as everyone knows. What some people might not know is that it is that price is actually only for the first 75 minutes? Afterwards it's actually $149.99 That is a fair & fine price I would be willing to pay as well but I was not made aware and was expected to read the fine print of the contract. Totally my mistake on that end but it would be nice if the customer service workers would mention it when renting these out. Unfortunately, we did not read the contract, like so many people don't when they are busy trying to move and so this is everyone's heads up to "read the fine print" and know the contract like the employees do, because they won't share it at the busy customer service line. I called and spoke with "Nicole" the rude customer service "lead" and in my kind communication I was met with a rude teenager girl attitude, not professionalism. I let her know I would be bringing awareness to the general public with this situation and she really went in saying that I was "threatening" and "exposing". I remained calm and tried to level with her as a human being, saying that she probably wouldn't like being charge $450 dollars for something she didn't use or didn't read the fine print for a place she did not work for but she did not empathize, just hung up shortly after getting angry. This is a caution to all that 29.99 is only for the first 75 minutes or something and to read the fine print. When you're moving and have Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and your Grandma's 91st Birthday all in the same week, it would be nice to be verbally communicated of the actual cost. Yes, this is on me still but Home Depot Customer Service needs to have better training or some people might take this as False Advertising or something shady. I definitely won't be coming back due to this experience. None contract/instruction reading people beware! LOL

    DON'T COUNT ON RECEIVING YOUR SPECIAL ORDER!…read more I am very upset. Home Depot Carmel mountain received a damaged blind that was special ordered. I requested that they reorder the product. The manager tried to convince me to accept the damaged product. He had extremely poor customer service. I have been waiting more than a week for a solution/replacement, but I just saw they cancelled the order instead. This is unacceptable and shows great incompetence!
