Ranging from $6 for a large cinderella pumpkin to $3 turban, I filled my cart and headed back to Brooklyn to roast, can and preserve these beauties. I would say this is worth the country drive!

It is not an all inclusive ticket. But the worst thing (and the main reason for the two star rating) is that the jumbo pumpkin patch was absolutely INFESTED with Jimsonweed, a toxic and very spiky plant! It is not somewhere to take kids, especially toddlers, because they could easily grab the spiked pods and injure themselves. We will not be coming back here and do not recommend this spot at all, especially if you have small children. Hopefully, for their sake, they are able to get rid of the weeds next year.

It is very similar to Cherry Crest with a lot of the exact same activities, but the overall place is smaller and every thing is closer together.

So entering the park was a breeze. Porta Potties were also freshly washed down and clean at this time. Since we came when the park opened I did everything that may have a long line later in the day. Most of the activities offered don't require lines, the kids can pretty much go up and play on them (i.e. The playgrounds, hay stacks, sandboxes, corn boxes, etc.) When we left my son STILL wasn't ready to go and probably could've played for hours more. Nothing here was haunted or scary at all. Very age appropriate and friendly atmosphere. My son loved it so much he wanted to go back the next day!

This place was quite large. There's a dedicated parking area on rocks. There's a porta potty at the parking area. You follow the signs to the office or gift shop and you state your name that registered online and you get a container of food and you can roam the cages. Each caged area is for specific sets of alpacas and you can get to the outside through each gated area. The alpacas are friendly - some a super needy - and some just want to rest. It really depends on the time frame for each one. You can touch and feed. Some really get in your face. I was trying to kneel down to take photos and the alpacas start walking towards me.

You can see a horse outside too and a Shepard dog as well.
