Around 3:30 we visited some of the stands that were ready and bought some fruits. Overall we had a lovely time walking around. The heat and wind can be hit or miss but it's manageable since the vendors all put up their pop up shades! We love supporting local farmers. Hope more people visit soon.

I give Farmer's Mart a "3" not because it's fancy or large and well stocked like a Walmart (it's…read moreactually small), but because it's close to the little town of Littlerock and the easiness it offers. When you have to run out and pick up something quickly then Farmer's Mart will save you from making a big trip. They also have a pretty good butcher shop if you're a meat eater, and you can get your beers and some alcohol choices there, too. Stay local and give Farmer's a shot!

You can depend on great freshly baked breads, hummus, lots of veggies (vendors like Holland Ranch are especially awesome), and more! Sometimes there's a lady who fire roasts hatch chilies right there while you cruise the rest of the market. If you find yourself getting parched, wander into the winery and treat yourself to a wine tasting flight. Parking can be a little testy, but have some patience and you'll be just fine. The 2014 market season opens on May 3rd, and you bet your butt I'll be there!

Wonderful Community Farmers Market with Fresh, Local Quality…read moreThe Old Town Newhall Farmers Market is a fantastic weekly destination for fresh, locally sourced products and a welcoming community atmosphere. This certified farmers market brings together local farms and food artisans, offering seasonal fruits and vegetables, artisan breads, dairy products, honey, meats, seafood, and a variety of ready-to-eat foods. Held year-round on Saturday mornings at the Old Town Newhall Library, the market provides access to produce that is often harvested just 12-48 hours before being sold, which truly shows in the quality and freshness. Visitors consistently praise the friendly vendors, fresh food options, and variety of small businesses to support. Many reviews highlight the excellent breakfast and prepared food options -- from pastries and tacos to fresh juices -- along with quality produce and specialty items. While it's a smaller market compared to some larger regional markets, that actually adds to its charm. It's easy to explore, offers thoughtfully curated vendors, and creates a relaxed, community-focused shopping experience that keeps people coming back week after week. If you're looking for a friendly local market with high-quality products, great food, and a strong sense of community, the Old Town Newhall Farmers Market is absolutely worth visiting. The level of service provided by each farmer and vendor is exceptional and consistently professional.

Being new to the area, I've been visiting different farmers markets around Santa Clarita, and I was…read morereally excited when I found the Old Town Newhall Farmers Market. Out of the ones I've tried so far, this one had more of the variety I was personally looking for, and I enjoyed the overall atmosphere the first few times I went. But the main reason I initially felt comfortable there was because during my first visit, I came with my service dog and the employee at the entrance properly asked the ADA-approved questions. She asked if my dog was a service dog and then asked what task she performs. I genuinely appreciated that so much, because most of the time people immediately say "we don't allow dogs" without asking, which can feel dismissive when you rely on a service animal. That first experience made me feel safe and respected, and it made me want to keep coming back. Unfortunately, my most recent visit was very different. When I arrived, an employee immediately told me that dogs were not allowed, without first asking if my dog was a service animal. I politely asked if she could ask the two ADA questions, and the interaction became uncomfortable. She responded, "I did, I asked you what the task for your service dog was." I told her, "You didn't ask me if she was a service dog, you just told me dogs aren't allowed." I then explained my dog's task and said, "If you don't mind, please review the ADA procedure for the two questions." She replied, "Oh my friend, we do follow ADA regulations." I told her, "No, you didn't. You assumed my dog was a pet and didn't ask if she was a service dog first." She said, "Most people are happy when we ask those questions," and I responded, "Yes, we are happy when you actually ask them." I do believe she thought she had asked correctly, but she didn't, and the conversation kept going back and forth in front of other people, including a vendor nearby who was giving samples. I ended up getting emotional and crying, which was embarrassing, and I felt bad that the vendor had to witness the situation because he was just standing there doing his job. I can see how this may seem like a small thing to some people, but for those of us who rely on real service dogs, these interactions matter a lot. We constantly feel like we have to justify our legitimacy, and it gets exhausting. I understand that staff have to deal with people bringing pets that are not service animals, and I respect that, but that's exactly why the correct ADA questions should always be asked before making assumptions. And there are ways that you can tell when a service dog is not a real service dog, which is information I would gladly give as I used to help train service animals. Because of that experience, I left feeling really disappointed. It's unfortunate, because I truly liked this farmers market and the variety it offers, but after that interaction I don't feel comfortable going back. I do hope staff continue to review ADA guidelines so situations like this can be handled more professionally in the future.

Overall: Great spot for some sweet fruit. Peaches were small but very sweet. It was a bit pricey,…read morebut I think it was worth coming here for it! Service was very no frills - it is a small stand on the side of the road (almost missed it when driving here). I think because we went during the beginning of the peach season, there were only peaches and apricots for sale. I believe that they take cash only so keep that in mind when you come here! There is plenty of parking on the side of the road.

Love their fruit! Always look forward to it in the summer. Especially their peaches!!read more

Wow. It had been a…read morecouple of years since I first became aware of Bloom Ranch. I'm not originally from California, but in the spaces I've moved through, I've always done my best to support Black-owned businesses whenever possible. Unbeknownst to me, I had no idea Bloom Ranch hosted a jazz brunch experience on the property. I was reminded about Bloom Ranch by someone whose opinion I trust deeply. She had traveled all the way from San Diego for the experience and left without words. She couldn't quite explain the levity, the love, the light, or what she had felt there. That was all I needed to know. I immediately booked a Sunday brunch and came with my partner and another couple. The experience begins long before you arrive. Driving from Pasadena into Acton, the landscape slowly transforms. The city gives way to rocky hills, rugged peaks, and wide-open skies. Then suddenly, you turn into Bloom Ranch and find yourself transported. Lush gardens, lavender, herbs, fruit trees, and rows of vibrant greenery welcome you onto the property. It feels as though you've stepped into another world entirely. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed not only by the Bloom Ranch staff, the people who steward and cultivate the land, but by what genuinely felt like family. From start to finish, we were cared for, supported, and guided through an experience that felt intentional in every way. The soulful jazz music would periodically pull you out of conversation because it was simply too beautiful not to fully absorb. The food was prepared in-house, sourced from the land, and served by people whose care and intention could be felt in every detail. What surprised me most was how spiritual the experience felt. There is something profoundly grounding about being surrounded by people who genuinely love the land, nurture it, and share its abundance with others. In a world that often feels rushed and disconnected, Bloom Ranch offers something increasingly rare, presence. It invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and remember your connection to nature, community, and yourself. I am filled with immense gratitude for having experienced something so special, created by people who look like me, people who feel like me, people who are intentionally cultivating peace, connection, stewardship of the land, and community. I was also filled with an incredible sense of pride. Bloom Ranch is the largest Black-owned ranch in Los Angeles County, and its existence feels both meaningful and necessary. Dr. Bill Releford is a beacon, a pillar of optimism, wisdom, and possibility. To witness someone carry the values and lessons of his upbringing through a successful medical career and into the creation and stewardship of Bloom Ranch is truly inspiring. And then there is Debra Releford, the Matriarch, whose warmth and presence seem to illuminate the heart and soul of the ranch itself. To say that I will return almost feels inadequate. It makes it sound like Bloom Ranch is simply a venue where one has an experience and then goes home. That is not what this felt like. What it felt like was being welcomed into a family. Into a community. Into a frequency of love, joy, nourishment, and belonging that has been needed for a very long time. Thank you, thank you, thank you to Dr. Bill Releford, Debra, and the entire team who made this experience possible. What you have created is deeply meaningful. Forever grateful.

I haven't been back here since COVID occurred, but I'm so happy to have come back here to…read moreexperience cherry picking again! I came here with family on a weekend, and due to the large crop bloom, there was a BOGO deal going on this year where if you buy 1 bucket, you get another bucket free! It 's always extremely hot whenever we come here as it would be usually in the summer months. I suggest being prepared because you walk up a small incline in between rows of cherry trees, so being hydrated is necessary. Parking and entrance is free, instructions are given by staff and they lead you to where to go to begin picking. General rules include no eating the cherries inside, no yanking cherries off of branches (leaving stems behind help them grow again), and for the BOGO deal, you must fill up an entire bucket. Now, it can be pricey because it's currently at $6.50 a lb (.50 cents increase compared to pre-covid) and I think a bucket can contain at LEAST 10-12 lbs. So you need to shell out at least $65 in order to do the BOGO deal for example. A staff actually said that a bucket might cost about $85 each when I asked. We didn't do the deal because that would be too much for our small family, so I think this is optimal for large groups! We ended up paying $48 for our bucket and we went our ways. Good for a quick hour. Too long and you may overheat from the heat! - bring own water, bottles sold onsite are $2 each - local honey is also sold - 2 lbs minimum for adult to purchase - overall fun and unique experience! - always double check dates and times, sometimes they close at 1/2pm!

Villa del Sol is a family-owned cherry farm and the largest one in the area. Came here with my…read moreboyfriend on a Friday morning to pick cherries and it wasn't too crowded. It's best to go on a weekday or around open on the weekend (7:00am) to avoid crowds. It gets hot during the day, so going early also helps to avoid the heat. The cherry trees do provide some shade though. Parking is free and easy to find. There is no entrance fee, but there is a $10 minimum per person. Cherries are priced at $6.50 per pound. You pay for the cherries at the end after you're done picking. The farm also sells honey that can be purchased when you pay for the cherries. The staff are kind and helpful. Upon arrival, we were given buckets for picking the cherries and given an explanation on where to go and what cherries are currently ripe for picking. Most of the cherries ready to pick at the time were Brooks and Rainiers. There were a few Bing cherry trees to pick from as well. The crop this year is top tier in quantity and quality due to the good weather. While we were picking cherries, there are staff members who walk around with hooks to help people access cherries that are out of reach. Shoutout to Ramon who helped us reach the ripest cherries on many Brooks and Rainier trees! We chatted with him about all things cherry and he told us about wrinkled cherries. These cherries are some of the sweetest ones due to the sun exposure and partial dehydration which result in a more concentrated flavor. We appreciate his insights and enjoyed his company while cherry picking. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience at Villa del Sol and give it 5/5 across all categories. Highly recommend to anyone who has not visited a cherry farm, picked cherries, or looking for a fun date idea. The cherries are so sweet and much better than the store-bought ones. We will definitely be back!
