The farmers are really nice people, very easygoing and friendly, so I feel comfortable having my curious kids there. There are some pumpkins still growing in a pumpkin patch and there are also some pumpkins in the patch that have already been cut from the vine. My kids love to wander through a real pumpkin patch to search for the perfect pumpkin. But there are also lots of pumpkins on tables from which to choose, medium to large. They also have the tiny white pumpkins and large white pumpkins. I was really impressed by the squashes and gourds. There were kabocha, turban, hubbard and butternut squashes for sale. And there were really nice gourds fresh from the field- they were washing them as we were browsing. We like that there are a few restored, antique tractors for the kids to climb on - these make for good photo opportunities! We also feel like the prices here are very fair - and for really high quality, fresh pumpkins. I highly recommend this pumpkin farm. It's great for families. We will definitely be back again next year.

We discovered it on Yelp and knew we had to make it a stop during our road trip.

I went to try and drop off pumpkins. My web search had told me it was okay. The woman working at…read morethe barn told me that it was okay. And then another woman came roaring down the driveway yelling at me about pumpkins. She said I should have called. I said no problem I'll take the pumpkin back. She continued to argue with me about the fact that I should have called when I was very calm telling her I'll take the pumpkin it doesn't matter. I was just telling her why i thought Pumpkins were wanted. ​ she ranted at me that I should have called first even though I had already told her multiple times I would take the pumpkin back and I wasn't trying to argue. Finally she yelled at me "get off my property!" Totally bizarre. Anyways don't try and give them pumpkins.

There are more than 300,000 Sunflowers to pick from and the it is three dollars per person for entry to the cutting field and three dollars per flower. My mother and I had a wonderful time at Buttonwood Farm. There were plenty of Sunflowers to choose from and it's definitely for a good cause. I would suggest wearing a hat because it can become very hot and there's not necessarily paths to get to the Sunflowers. You would have to through the Sunflowers to get to some the Sunflowers. It was definitely fun and we will definitely be back.

It is exactly as advertised- a sunflower field where you can cut your own sunflowers. There is…read moreparking along the fields. It's a $2 suggested donation to enter the field and $2 for each flower on your way out. As much as its a suggested donation, you must pay as you enter and they arm you with a plastic bag to help with your flowers. They also have a set of sheers there for you to borrow on your visit. Now- there aren't clear walking paths. It's just you fighting your way through the sunflowers and some will be taller than you! It's beautiful but hot in that field! I can share my 10 year old's allergies started bothering her out there and my Mom said it was too hot. We clipped our flowers, took a few photos and headed out. Upon exiting we simply paid (cash) for out cut flowers. They had a nice classic truck parked out front-awesome for photos. we did not cross the street but they said they had sunflowers that came in different colors but were probably picked over at that point. It was a nice family activity but be careful- easy to lose children in these tall flowers!

We each had an alpaca (two llamas) and hiked to to the top of a beautiful mountain with a great view! She led us down and we were completed in 2 hours. She is a kind soul who led the children around the farm and allowed them to hold chickens, pet goats, and observe a 40 pound turkey. She answered every question they had and it was overall, a great experience! She takes a donation for her time and it is well worth it. We plan to come back again in the spring when it is warmer and the view changes with the season.

Cons: muddy area where ride on toys are, not cleaned off after rain, big sign saying kids shouldn't run or yell??

I'm sure in spring through fall it's better but December you need to bundle up! Wear boots or old shoes for mud. We will try maybe again in spring and hopefully the smoky smell issue will be resolved because that is inappropriate for the public and a turn off.
