    I took my kids and visiting family here on a Thursday when the kids had no school. I hear it can…read moreget crowded on the weekends, but on Thursday when we arrived a little before noon, it wasn't bad. They had a steady stream of newcomers but not too crowded. It was fairly easy to find though going there, my map told me to go down a treacherous gravel road which I wasn't terribly fond of. They have a moderately sized parking lot and you'll see this large, red barn. That's where you get your goodies (there's often a line) and where their store is. We stopped by for a treat first. They sell ice cream, cider floats, and what is a "TikTok famous" coffee float with donut. We got: Cider ($4) - I didn't actually drink this. I got it for my kid with food allergies. He wanted ice cream but they do not know if the ice cream they use contains eggs or not so we played it safe. My kid thought it was okay but finally finished it later. He typically prefers regular apple juice. Cider float with donut - you have a choice of no donut for $2 less. It's like a root beer float but with cider instead of root beer, black and orange sprinkles around the time of the cup, whipped cream, and a powdered cider donut over it all. I shared this with my daughter. That donut was delicious! Warm, tender, and crisp on the outside. The drink was great! I do wish it came with a spoon because it got difficult finishing the last of it. Warning: if you have one of these, the bees are coming for you. They use some sort of caramel-like sauce to get the sprinkles to stick. Overall, quite good. Maple cider donut ($3): my sister got this and she said it was amazing, but she said she thought $3 was a bit much (the unglazed donuts are $1.25 each). She's vegan, so didn't partake in the float, but she also wasn't going to ask if there's milk in the donut. If you're getting only donuts, they are purchased in the store. They have tables and chairs nearby for you to picnic and enjoy your treats. Going through the gates, there was a table but they were busy with other people so we walked right in. There is no entrance fee, which was nice. You go through the apple orchard first. It seems like most of the apples have been picked through, though there are a lot of developing apples. Some of the nicer ones were way too tall for us; they don't provide ladders. We only managed to find one that looked nice. At the end, there used to be a sunflower field and the corn maze. It's epic but you don't know how formidable until you're past the point of return and realize it's not a kids maze. We were in there for a while! Even met other kids that thought they'd be lost forever. The corn stalks are taller than a human and they're pretty dense so you can't look over or through them. It's a true maze and I was impressed. I wish they would provide a paper maze puzzle of the corn maze because I'm so curious how it is from above. Lots of dead ends. What I can say is don't lose hope. You'll get there! (When we finally found the exit, it was almost like a dream because we had been staring at corn for so long.) In hindsight, it was good we ate something first. Once done, we explored the sunflowers and saw the pumpkin patch. As we headed out, we went to pay for our lone apple and we discovered THE CORN MAZE IS NOT FREE. It's $10 per adult and $5 per kid. They charged us $1 for the single apple. I guess they work on the honor system? I didn't mind much because that maze clearly took planning. Before we left, we visited the store full of baked goodies. I got a few cider donuts, a dumpling, and a piece of crumb cake because they just brought out a fresh tray. Plus a lattice harvest pie. The pies with crumble aren't vegan, but the lattice pies are made of vegetable shortening. Restrooms! They have a row of port-a-potties by the parking lot. They're actually the cleanest ones I've been to before. No sinks but they do have a dispenser of antibacterial hand gel. The openings are a bit large so if your kid needs to use the toilets, hold onto them. Overall, it was quite enjoyable and I definitely think everyone should go through a corn maze of this caliber at least once in their life. The apple pickings were sparse but at least you get delicious floats and donuts! Note: they have gluten free goodies in the store but they are nut based (almond flour). They also had one gluten free-vegan item.

    My family and I made a trip to come here. It was a bit far of a drive about 2 hours but we wanted…read moreto check it out. There wasnt any pumpkin left in the field to pick and the apples were not event there on the trees. I would definitely have to say hand down to the cute little store - there was a bakery side and oh my gosh the donuts , the cookies and the Tik Tok famous drink was out of this world. So the 2 hour trip was definitely worth the drive. The service was okay the individuals behind the counter to order the Tik Tok drink had a bit of a attitude when I was asking about questions. Just stay patient. Other then that I would highly recommend coming here and trying a piece of all of there different donuts and cookies are soo soo good. They even had a pumpkin cider donut which I never had before. Don't forget to stop by and check them out.

    Love the ambience outdoors and the flavored ciders!…read more Flights are a super reasonable price. Some hits for me were the jersey peach, blood orange mimosa, mango berry, pear, and I forget what else. I love that they rotate flavors around! It gets pretty crowded on weekends so to snatch a table you have to go near opening or bring your own chairs or mat to sit on the lawn. It's also kid friendly. There is cornhole and a connect 4. Wish there were just a few more things for the little ones to stay occupied! Lastly, there's one food truck there each day that rotates. Lines can be long, I feel like you should recruit TWO food trucks for weekends!

    Are we joking?! New obsession unlocked…read more I've never been a huge cider fan, but I always noticed this place was packed, so I finally decided to give it a try, and I'm so glad I did! I ordered a flight with the Blackberry Currant, Lavender, Blueberry, and Cherry ciders, and wow... every single one was incredible. They were flavorful, refreshing, and completely changed my opinion on cider. The atmosphere is awesome, too. They have indoor seating, plus a huge outdoor space where you can bring your own chairs or blankets. There are lawn games, and they host rotating food pop-ups. When we visited, it was a pizza vendor. The only downside was that our pizza was cold. It was still delicious, so it didn't take away from the overall experience. We even grabbed some cider to go so we could enjoy it at home. I already can't wait to come back, try the rest of the flavors, and see what other food trucks pop up next!

    What isn't here? This farm has something for everyone!…read more We visited for a friend's kid's birthday party, but we've also been here before for strawberry picking. On a nice summer day, it's a great place to spend a few hours with family. If you have kids, they'll absolutely love it. There are pony rides, horse rides, wagon rides, bounce houses, and lots of farm animals like chickens, roosters, sheep, cows, horses, alpacas, and more. You'll also find tractors, haystacks, and all the little farm-themed things that make the place fun. Just remember--it's a farm, not a theme park! Depending on the season, you can pick strawberries, apples, berries, and other fresh produce. There's also live music, and the food options are surprisingly good. One thing I noticed was that they host a lot of private events. During our visit, I saw several birthday parties, a baby shower, and other family gatherings. They have spaces that you can rent for different occasions. Parking: Plenty of parking is available. It's not paved, but there's lots of space on grass and gravel, and we had no trouble finding a spot. Overall, this is a wonderful family-friendly farm with plenty to do. Whether you're visiting for fruit picking, a special event, or just a fun day outdoors, it's definitely worth a visit.

    We had a nice time at this farm today. It was our little one's first time apple and pumpkin…read morepicking. We made sure we bought our admission tickets online because we would got $4 discount that way (as mentioned on their website). It was $19.50 at the farm. The admission ticket included: - free parking - One small pumpkin (we got ours) - use of red wagons and scissors - lawn games and corn hole - photo ops - wagon ride We also brought our own reusable bag for apple picking. We enjoyed the wagon ride to the pumpkin patch and back to the apple orchard. We got to pick some apples, enjoyed the live music and shopped at farmstand. I bought a dahlia flower bouquet for $30 and beehive honey butter scented candle for $17.50. We also bought some food at the farm but it was a bit pricey. The chicken burger ($10) was good but I didn't like that was a little charred and it was small. My husband liked the bratwurst and apple cider sauerkraut ($10.50) but he also thought the bratwurst was small. I think they should let people know that you can pick the zinnias flowers ($1 per stem) as well. I didn't know that until we were leaving so I rushed back and picked some. Overall, we had fun.

    Great place to bring the kids in the fall for apple picking, pumpkin picking, etc. All that fall…read morejazz. You can spend a lot of time here. Some places are a one trick pony. Lots of activities for the kids. We will be back next year.
