We love Secor Farms, it's such a fun place to visit. During the fall, they have pumpkin picking and…read morehay rides. I'm excited to bring my son here for his first pumpkin picking experience in a few months! Year round, they have the best apple cider donuts. The cinnamon sugar is our favorite but all of the flavors are fresh and delicious. It's worth the trip just to try them, trust me!

When one thinks of the words 'rural' and 'farmland,' these are not terms one hears a lot in Bergen…read moreCounty, NJ, one of the most heavily populated counties to surround New York City. Yet the county has a rich history in farming and agriculture from the late 1600s up into the 1970s. The small farms in north Jersey do more than just provide fruits and vegetables for our tables. They are open-air classrooms to our agricultural past, places to buy fresh produce and baked goods to support local family farm stores, and places for interesting special events and outings for families. Being the first Saturday after Labor Day, my partner and I got a head start on the apple cider donuts made fresh daily, just oozing with apple cidery goodness and never hot. Since 1973, located on Airmont Avenue in Mahwah, Secor Farms is a reminder of Bergen County's rural past and one of the last farms left in the area, passed down through three generations. Upon arrival in the afternoon, parking was not an issue with only a handful of vehicles. However, the farm comes alive starting Sept 15 with a corn maze, hayrides, pumpkin picking, and a petting zoo where reservations are required, with all sorts of activities. Their outside garden centers had pumpkins, gourds, fall decorations, and mums for purchase. We went inside their marketplace full of produce and managed to get a bag of mixed apple cider donuts and a quart of apple cider. These baked donuts have the sweet tartness of apple cider with a coating of cinnamon sugar or powdered sugar. They were soft, moist, tender, and tastefully delicious. The price was reasonable. The staff was friendly. We can recommend this place.

If you're looking for something to do on a Sunday, it is a pleasant walk around the tents but there are limited produce, bread and food tents (vegan, kebabs, dumplings). I only walk away usually with one or two items. When the weather gets warmer there's also live music. There's parking on the opposite side of the train tracks and someone always at the crosswalks to help people cross.

I was impressed with the Ramsey Farmers' Market. It has many vendors, encompassing everything from…read morefood, to apparel, to accessories. It is pet friendly, clean, and every vendor was friendly and accommodating. I also enjoyed, that this market is open ALL YEAR ROUND, on Sundays, from 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM. I look forward to visiting during the colder months and seeing the difference from what I experienced this day. During this visit, we purchased Chicken Dumplings ($10) and an Apple Raspberry Crumb Pie($15). Both were delicious and highly recommended. Please, take time to visit the Ramsey Farmers' Market. You'll be pleasantly surprised and will be helping local businesses continue to thrive.

There's stacks of them, either of the glazed or cinnamon sugar variety, and they are still warm from the oven usually. A fresh cider doughnut is a beautiful thing, and I personally purchase lots of them to buy the affection of my wife and children. They've also got all kinds of other confections as well, including apple fritters if you want to round out your fried apple pastry selection. I picked up one of those, but have yet to sample the pies, breads, sauces, cinnamon rolls, ice cream, cookies, honey, and more...but there's always next week. Outside, they've got all the pumpkins, gourds, flowers, and fresh produce you'd want. The owners are CLEARLY dog people, and I can get behind their plea for all of us to be the people that our dogs think we are.

But, you'll likely walk around and find specimens that wow you enough to pay a bit more for them. I bought a mandevilla, some annuals, veggies and herbs on my last visit. And, I've probably bought stuff here twice per year, every year, for the last 20 years. Sign up for their mailing list and you'll get coupons in Spring and Fall. If you want something for your yard, they likely have it. If you don't see it or aren't sure, just ask. They sell shrubs, trees, veggies, herbs, annuals, perennials, mulch, topsoil, pots and planters and they even have chicken and duck eggs in refrigerators in the main building. Parking is a little funny here. I suggest going on weekdays or off hours. Otherwise, there's some right on the main road and the overflow is off the side street. Happy gardening - it's good for you!

Fresh milk, vegetables, and eggs are also amazing. However, we LOVE their meats. You can't go wrong with any of them. The petting zoo is great for children and families. It is certainly elaborate and fun. Staff are kind and helpful, always willing to strike up conversation. Prices are reflective of the quality here. We love it. Try it out!
