For the past three years, we've purchased fresh turkeys from Whitaker Farms. For the past three years, we have not been disappointed.

They also have other meats and meat products. Even delicious jerkys!! They are truly a Mom and Pop type establishment, but are very committed to quality. I highly recommend to visit their online shop and to pre-order your next Thanksgiving turkey. I assure you, you will not enjoy a better turkey.

You pull up and there is ample parking right outside the farm. We were greeted by one of the Wilson's children (added that nice family feel) where we purchased admission. $10- they take cash, card and Venmo. From there you have fresh kettle corn being cooked and bagged, and a nice size area to purchase pumpkins and other goodies. You can hop on the tractor and take a ride around some of the property or they also had a little 'train' for the kids - super cute. The corn maze is straight back from the entrance - it's huge and you can get lost - take note of the aerial photo at the entrance . When you come out, if you start to head back where you came, you'll see a wildflower path up ahead, was a nice stroll up through there, and wraps you back around to another pumpkin patch. That's where the 'action' takes place... cannon and slingshot action! Here you can pay for a slingshot or cannon experience; we did both. Slingshot was fun, mini pumpkins - $1 for 2 shots and you totally get that 'pull back far far far sitting on the ground experience' - loved it! The cannon - well- I loved the power in between my hands!! That sucker shot a NICE distance. This was $2/shot or $5 for 3. Well worth it!!! We didn't carry cash on us, so after grabbing a wagon/cart up front (there a few to use - or bring your own!) we grabbed a variety of pumpkins in the field - ghost, green, orange, etc... then we ended up paying for the cannon experience when we purchased the pumpkins. Things to note: Bathrooms on site, cards accepted, pumpkin patch, kettle corn, tractor rides, cannon and slingshot, corn maze, 'train' for the kids. I spotted some fire pits, might be able to use those as well, just ask! We spoke with Lynn (Mrs. Wilson) and learned all about the farm. She and her family really put their heart into this and you can tell. This farm has been in Mr. Wilson's family since the 1800s!!

So, a couple of late springs ago, I was eager to get out of the house. I thought that I knew what…read morestir crazy was (ha). The answer was soon (and so so much later) to come. When walking around the block was no longer sufficient to satisfy my 'getting out' needs, I... went online and bought my strawberries remotely. Fruit picking from April to October has always been something I've enjoyed about the area and knowing that that pastime was going to stay in the past, I pivoted -- as did the folks at Batey Farms. I've been north, south, west, and east in my search for fresh produce outside of Nashville. Surprising to me, I had yet to go to Batey Farms. I think I'd planned on going with a friend who lived in the area but we put it off thinking we had plenty of time to do it later. Oh, box of plagues and troubles that was opened lo so many years ago (at this point)... you never fail to disappoint and stress. So, I wanted strawberries. I wanted fresh strawberries. I didn't want to buy overpriced strawberries from the supermarket that were coated in pesticides. I didn't have a lot of choices. Many u-pick farms were shut down and discombobulated. Thankful that someone in the Batey family is a crafty zoomer (millennials are old/40s now; youth is new), they had a system in play. Go online. Pick the amount of berries you want. Pay. Arrange a pick-up time. Drive to the farm. Sit in queue. Verify your order with a number. Pop the trunk. Deliver berries. Leave. Granted, a lot of the fun of local produce is spending time outside and picking the best berries but some things can't be helped. I was just grateful that someone thought up a workable system. One caveat, though: the ordering system was/is a bit Mad Maxish. Berries sold out. Fast. Think of it as a berry version of trying to snag seats at the Bluebird. Don't wait until the last minute or think the first time out will satisfy your itch. Patience is definitely a virtue.; that and expert internet-fu. I ordered. I hit the road on a Sunday afternoon. I enjoyed a leisurely drive. I drove through a neighborhood. I arrived to orderly chaos. I gave my number. I popped the trunk. I got my berries. I left. Super efficient process. No (reasonable) complaints. I drove home and studied my berries. I had a fair amount of 'I would have picked these' berries so no (fair) complaints. There's nothing like the real thing but as we've learned -- and, are still learning -- to get through life one must pivot. Strawberries makes doing so all the sweeter. And, to be all the way truthful, if I could remotely pick my berries I think I might prefer this system. This year, we'll see if I can resume the hunt. If not, at least I know how to scratch my itch. Locally.

Another updated review:…read more Before moving to Tennessee from San Diego, I've honestly never thought about being able to purchase meats directly from a farm. It's amazing: freshness, quality, and taste. We generally do about 2-3 big orders a month. Here's a general list: GRASS-FED BEEFS: -filet mignon -ribeye -sirloin -New York strip -tri-tip -beef rib slabs -ground beef All great!! Usually do about 4-6 of each, every time we order. GRAIN FED: -wagyu short ribs -wagyu tri tip Both very tasty! PORK: -3/4" pork chops in packs of two (we eat these once a week, so good!!) -2" pork chops on our hungrier days are great -spare ribs -baby back ribs We love and enjoy all their ribs. Seafood: -salmon (I wish they were a bit larger but it was good) -gulf shrimps (my fav from here, they're big and we usually grab about 3-4 bags each purchase) Last time we came the owner wasn't there but I believe his daughter and her bf were. I'm not sure if there's a difference but each filets I added on were different price and they charged me $17-$20 each one. I don't remember paying that much for them before but maybe it's something new. Besides that customer service is always great. The bbq seasonings, steak seasonings, and their bbq sauce are pretty delicious as well.

We came one weekend with the intention of doing the corn maze and I was blown away by the design that they created! The aerial view shows that the maze is a school bus, a house, a cow and a pig. There are four different ways you can start the maze on the 10 acres. The maze is open Friday evenings, all day Saturday and closed Sundays. It is $12 for adults and children ages 5-12 are $10. Any children 4 years and under are free. If you come at night to do the corn maze bring flash lights and/or head lights, and wear shoes you don't care about getting a bit muddy. We also encountered a few spider webs so be careful trekking through certain areas. We had fun here and stayed about an hour. If you are looking for a fun maze this is a good one!

Located in a beautiful valley between Wartrace and the Beech Grove exit on I-24, it's great for a day trip or even a half-day trip if time is limited. We visited during blueberry season.

Then it's off to the 20+ rows of blueberry bushes to pick, eat, pick, and eat some more until you are full and ready to leave! You pay by the pound for what you have in your basket. Mrs. Potts was nice and easy to talk with. Oh, they have some homemade fruit and honey popsicles that are perfect for a summer day!

4.5 So, before…read morecoming to Valley Home Farm, I always thought early summer was peak strawberry season. Perhaps in other places it is. In Tennessee, if you want strawberries, you'd better come with your mom because those suckers are ready to be picked around early to mid-May. This is just one of the things I learned during my time at Valley Home Farm. Despite getting to the Farm about a week too late for strawberries, I was just in time for blackberries and blueberries. AND if I wanted strawberries that had been turned into such wonderful things as pies, cakes and jams, I was in luck as well. Let me back up. Wartrace is a not close to Nashville. You have to come here with intention. I'd been plotting to check out the farm as soon as I heard it was a berry-tropolis. So, one Sunday late morning, I finally got my act together, headed east on 24 and made my way into the country. I pulled up to a big white house, a country store and fields of berries so ripe/fresh, it was all I could smell once I exited the car. Yes. I was at the right place. I walked inside and proudly bellowed my plan to eat all the strawberries. I quickly exposed myself as a know-nothing city slicker. The owners politely disabused me of my notion and let me know what I was going to do: I was going to take some baskets, I was going to look for black and/or blueberries, I was to know which ones to pick by the following elements, and I would like it. If I had to have strawberries, i could plan better for next year or buy a cake. It all sounded reasonable. I headed out to the fields and ran into some other pickers. They gave me some great tips about where to go for the best berries and I set on my way. I hadn't been berry picking since I was a kid. My memories of doing so were of my parents picking berries and me sitting on the grass eating as many as I could stuff in my mouth. These were good memories and, now, being in the 'parent' role, it made me think about having kids of my own to watch gorge themselves on berries as I did the picking. One day. But, back to the business at hand: berry picking. Not only is it fun, it's mildly therapeutic. AND it's incredibly cheap. Two baskets of fresh-picked berries (of both kinds) amounted to an extremely fair price. I had the added satisfaction of knowing that I picked them and they were all berries I found attractive enough to want to put in my belly. To the surprise of everyone (including me), I passed on buying any strawberry ice cream, pies, cakes, or popsicles. I know! A.) I didn't think the frozen items would make it back to Nashville in one piece and B.) I was satisfied getting the healthy, fresh stuff. I didn't want to compromise my clean living that quickly. Being able to 'farm' like this is one of the reasons you live here. You should probably do it more often. I know I plan on doing so. P.S. Wild (fresh) blackberries are really bitter. Like, just thinking about them makes my mouth pucker. Who was the evil genius who made them part of the delicious berry pantheon of straw, blue and rasp? If you pick buckets of the things, have some recipes in mind to polish them off. Or, gift them to some know-nothing city slickers.

They have been doing renovations which included sprayed white insulation on every interior wall and the ceiling of the barn. 2 weeks prior my daughter-in-law did a walk-through of the barn and the owner assured her that all of the walls and ceilings would be finished and that the venue would look beautiful. My poor daughter-in-law was i absolute tears when she walked in for the rehearsal the night before and noticed that the entire facility was still completely undone. The interior still had over sprayed chunky insulation on the interior. Nothing had been touched or been finished like she was promised. It looked absolutely terrible. She asked the owner if it would be finished that evening and the owner dismissed her by only replying NO and then rushed out without any other discussion. Her bridesmaids had to rush out to Michaels to find some fabric and bunting to cover an entire corner of the room because it was so unsightly. Also, the bridal suite was filthy dirty including a disgustingly dirty toilet. The room that had all of the decor and chairs and things were covered in an inch of dust and the chairs that we needed to use for the bride and grooms table were covered in black mold. The air conditioning was also not working due to the renovations. I would NEVER recommend this venue to anyone. They should be ashamed for tarnishing what should have been the happiest day of their lives. This was honestly a case of fraud. The venue that they saw in the day they contracted with them was NOT the venue that they had on the day of the wedding
