    We had a great time! I posted a picture of their prices. Great place to take a family photo, great place to roam the beautiful sunflower gardens, pick pumpkins, pet goats, get lost in a maze and for children a fun train ride or hay ride! They have large and tiny pumpkins, pick your own sunflowers for $2 each, there are a ton of bees in case you are fearful or allergic, they didn't bother us. Staff is friendly, they have hand sanitizer stations and a hand washing station near the porta potties. They had a couple of food vendors when we went as well, we loved the ice cream! We had a blast and will return again!

    I went here this month Oct. 2020 during COVID-19 time. I really wanted my son (almost 2) to experience the pumpkin patch. There was a line and they limit the number of people that can enter. Makes sense and it's safe. I was happy we only waited about 15 minutes. In some ways it seems like an eternity with a 2 year old, but it wasn't that bad. Upon entering, you go through the gift shop and then to the pumpkin patch. They had plenty of options for pumpkins in various price ranges. They had some colossal pumpkins! Made nostalgic for my childhood. They have a hayride (the line was WAY too long) so we didn't do this. Plus, we really wanted a quick safe experience and didn't want to spend too much time. We did get a pumpkin for our son and we went in the petting zoo to see the goats, sheep and a chicken. Our son loves this! The petting zoo was $9 for ten mins to feed the animals. I'd definitely go here again!

    Came here multiple times with kids and it's always so much fun! I would rather come here than driving all the way to the super crowded Bates Farm. It's right next to the freeway 15 but it's hidden enough that you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. Parking is a breeze, especially both times we came here before 10am. There's also a petting zoo, mostly goats. The goats can be a little aggressive though especially for the little ones, some big ones jumped on me and my husband when we were holding the food , so be careful. Other than that, the sunflower field is so tranquil to look at. You can get a cutter and cut your own stems. Each stem costs $2. My sunflowers are still fresh at this moment after a week. The hayride and corn maze are always fun even for the adults. Lastly, the shave ice truck parked in the front gives a final touch for this wonderful fall trip with the family.

    I would hugely recommend coming here. They offer free parking and free entrance. If you go on the website you could print out a coupon for a free train ride. The coupon it's good for an adult and a kid.! Even to just come here and take photos it's totally worth it. The ambience is amazing here specially around sunset to see the beautiful sky. The prices are fairly decent but you are buying it at a pumpkin patch to support local businesses.

    Easy access off of Interstate 15, on West Bernardo Drive, an exit before Valley Parkway. Once you make that turn on Highland Valley Road, you will be greeted with rows of sunflower fields on your right. Parking is free and in the dirt. Overflow lot is in the back. Wash your car after, not before. Also, suggest to reverse park to get out easier since the lot is not structured with lines, people will start a new row and can be tight. We came 4 days before Halloween from 4:30pm to 5:30pm. They close at 6pm on the weekends and people were still driving in at 5:30pm. I'm sure inventory was a lot beginning of October but there's still plenty of size and shapes to pick from. There was one food truck outside from MARCEL selling Belgium waffles. I suppose you can bring your own food because there's a large tent designated for snack area. Not much activities like other pumpkin patches with bouncy houses or carnival rides. What it lacks, it makes up in other areas like offering a tractor hay wagon ride around the vicinity for $2 per person and a corn maze for $2 per person. Kids free under 2 years old. I love the raw and authenticity of this patch. My favorite is seeing the pumpkins growing on the ground and still attached to the vines. The sunflowers near the patch was at the end of life. You must walk further down to get to the many rows of sunflowers that you saw while driving in. Perfect for that fall photo shoot. In the far background, you'll see Christmas trees and homes on the hills.

    Loveeee that there's no entrance fee here. I also love the sunflower picking! Super unique!

    It's Fall y'all! Took Amari here on a Monday mid Oct & it was an easy peasy in & out. Just off the freeway, the attendants were all very nice, the prices were decent, it's def very kid friendly, & there was a good variety of pumpkins to choose from.

    There's barely any sunflowers bloomed right now which was a bummer, but they have plenty of pumpkins, a corn maze and goats!

    Went here with my friends after seeing it online. Definitely a fun place to take the family or just a cool little event during October to attend. You can choose your own pumpkin , do the corn maze, pick some sunflowers, go on a little tractor ride and get up and close to some livestock.

    Beautiful place for family and individual to go for fun. They have country style setup for pumpkin station and gorgeous sunflower field. U can pick pumpkin and sunflower at the same time.

    An offshoot of pinery tree farms this pumpkin patch experience is fun and mostly free! You get a bit of everything here except bouncers and carny rides. There is a Corn Maze and a Hay Ride, each at a buck a person. The Hay Ride is the better option. Pumpkins for sale at all sizes and price points

    This farm is huge and fun place. My daughter and I loved that we got to cut the pumpkins from the vine. The people who run it are awesome. Highly recommend coming here. Also the pumpkins were good quality and lasted a long time.

    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!

    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!
