    Our family of 4 had a good time here. Buckets for picking provided and plastic bags also provided to carry your produce home once finished. Endless blueberries and blackberries to be picked. Gorgeous wildflowers available for U cut. This place is so picturesque that I saw multiple people painting the landscapes there. Friendly staff. Easy parking. They take credit card. It was a wonderful morning!

    Been going here for years as a fun activity with my kids as well as with friends. It's a beautiful berry farm. If you pick berries and take home their buckets, make sure to bring them back next time - you get a small cash credit for returning them. Call the phone number on their website for daily berry farm news in which a recording tells you what they have available for picking or if the field is closed due to weather conditions. Today I picked blackberries, blueberries, and strawberries. They also had cut-your-own-flowers available. In the past I have also picked cucumbers and I have enjoyed doing the dig-your-own-potatoes! There's a big shaded tree with chairs underneath if you wanted to bring a lunch and relax. They have a "Paws On Parade" dog here that is super cute (an art initiative in which individual local artists decorated dogs). You may or may not see the beekeeper in action harvesting honey! They also have a stand selling honey, some Americana art, pre-picked fruits and veggies as well as other small goods ...but, the main thing to do here is to go picking so just grab everyone a bucket from the stand and hit the field! It's a really nice activity! I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because their berries are expensive...

    Strawberry picking was Amazing! Lots of fresh veggies and fruit. Blackberries and blueberries are ready too. The strawberries are sweet and delicious.

    I think I'm in love with the farm. 25 minutes from the Ballantyne area. The staff was so friendly and helpful. They pointed out the best fields to pick from. They also have blueberries, blackberries, local honey and you can pick your own flowers to create a bouquet. I'll definitely be back later in the season to pick other ripe fruits.

    Great place to go if you want to pick your own fruits and vegetables! They provide the basket for you and it's weighed by the pound. The place itself is a fairly big field so you can stay far apart from others. We made a reservation and picked strawberries this time and there were a lot of the sweet red ones when we went... you have to go into the leaves to find them, but they're there! We brought them home and tried them and they were delicious; they didn't need any extra sugar because they were already naturally sweet! I'd love to come back and try shoveling for potatoes, but sadly they had already ran out this season due to popularity. Follow their instagram for updates on which fruits and vegetables are available for picking! Highly recommend this place for the experience!

    What a great farm to go to to pick your own produce and fruit without pesticides. My mom and I go weekly for tomatoes (my favorite is San marzano for making homemade tomato sauce), zucchini, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and much more. We also purchased their honey from the bees on the farm and a t-shirt. If you have kids or just like getting fresh vegetables I would recommend checking this place out. It is a true gem!!!!!

    Hello! I had a quick question; do you guys allow people to pick their own berries?

    Yes, they do. Check their social media. They update it if the pick your time is not quite ready. I have picked strawberries there.

    We came to the pumpkin patch! They have a large parking lot and it was easy to find…read more It's a $3 fee for everyone above 2 years old and you need a reservation. Although, it was easy to make a reservation and there were a lot of time slots to choose from. This included seeing the animals (goats, pigs and bunnies), walking in the flower fields (a sunflower field and colorful flowers), the playground and taking photos. The playground really was not much and I think older kids would've gotten bored easily. For an extra fee, there is a corn pit to play in, a wagon ride and a train ride for kids. We did not do these. There wasn't a ton of places for photo ops, but there were some. They have a shop with goods for sale as well as some snacks and drinks like apple cider, slushies, apple cider donuts, alcohol, etc. We went the weekend after Halloween, so there weren't many pumpkins to see/choose from, but if we went earlier in the season I'm guessing there would have been. On the opposite side of the property, there was a Thai restaurant and a shop that served ice cream and alcohol. There were plenty of picnic tables and even a couple TV's showing football. This was a bit of a walk to get to, though. They also have pizza which you have to order ahead of time with your reservation if interested, but I've heard great things about the pizza. Keep in mind it is only porta johns, like many pumpkin patches. All in all, not my favorite pumpkin patch in the area, I questioned why we needed a reservation and to pay, it really didn't include much, but I'm wondering if we would've had a different experience if we went earlier in the season.

    Very nice experience! I chaperoned a field trip for my daughter and the kids had a ball. There were…read moreso many different things to do from kiddie zip lines to feeding goats. The strawberries were so sweet and well taken care of. Such a beautiful farm & can't wait to go back.

    Super fun experience at the pumpkin patch!!! We visited on the Saturday morning before Halloween…read moreand it wasn't too packed at all!! We had fun. There is a big parking lot- but be careful, the driveway to get in is really narrow and only one car fits through at a time. There is no admission fee and it is free to walk around. You also don't need reservations. There is cornhole, picnic tables to sit at, a gift shop with local good slike honey and apples, a coffee truck, a lemonade truck and popcorn for sale. There are pumpkins everywhere of different shapes and sizes available for purchase in addition to gourds and mums. We bought a mum and it was $15. There are plenty of photo opportunities and a garden to walk around in. There is also a lot of space for kids to run around in. For an additional fee, there is a wagon ride you can take that will take you to see farm animals but we didn't do this. All in all, not as many activities in my opinion as some of the other pumpkin patches around town, but I did like how close it is to town compared to some of the other pumpkin patch options and it was super cute! The staff was all really nice too!

I love that it is family owned and they always make it seem like you're family too while visiting. This year, my family went to pick strawberries a few months ago and it was a blast. We were shown where to pick them and to leave a flag of where we left off. The experience was so much fun and I would totally go back next season. The strawberries are delicious and I look forward to visiting during the fall for the pumpkin picking. They always make it such an enjoyable experience for both older and younger families.

The guys, Larry and Jason, love sharing their story. Their enthusiasm and excitement are infectious and their passion shows up in the carefully designed and tended farm. There are lots of blueberry bushes and different varieties of flowers that are available for picking. I didn't know there were so many varieties of blueberries, so I learned something. Each variety and where the bush is located can be a variable in the taste. They also have a big chicken coop with some very happy hens and a few very happy roosters. Great time for young and old. I wish I could be here for fig season (August and September), but that isn't going to happen for me. If you're in this area, though, you might want to make a trip here. Prices are a bit high, but when you think about what it takes for them as far as upkeep and maintenance, it's worth it. Everything is organic, sustainable , and environmentally friendly.

And I bought my own jar! I don't feel the price matches the activity. But that's me. Why, my flowers started dying immediately. I followed the instructions and changed the water daily. A lot of ppl were here. And it can be a fun experience. But I'm not sure if I would return.

    I've been looking for a great Strawberry Farm on my side of Charlotte since I moved here about two…read moreyears ago. Now that I'm about to leave, I finally found one. I have purchased strawberries from the Harrisburg stand but I had never been to the actual farm until today. I've been missing the Harrisburg stand all season long. But as I was on my way back from Raleigh today on 49, as if by magic, I saw the Cody Strawberry Farm sign. I was so excited and I immediately turned and went to the farm. I got about halfway down the road I thought to myself, "They probably don't take cards." And I quickly dismissed the thought and said "Everybody takes plastic now." Sure enough, when I got to the stand and ordered my berries and slushy, I pulled out my plastic only to be told that they only take cash or checks. Determined to get my goodies, I decided to head to the nearest ATM back in Richfield. The nice lady at the stand let me take the slushy anyway. I assured her I would be back to pay for it all. After about 10 minutes, I returned for my berries. She was kind enough to still comp the slushy since I went out of my way to go get the cash. That's great customer service! The slushy was absolutely delicious and the berries are too. So glad I finally caught them. Can't wait to come back! This is a great field trip for the kids. Just be sure to bring cash.

There's lots of land, two protected flower tends and a beautiful room inside, which can host a small intimate but beautiful event. The inside space is clean and well-maintained and even the bathrooms are comfy and cozy. One of the owners Julia accompanied by her assistant Kendell showed me around and told me all about blackberry Ridge Farm. Blackberry Ridge Farm is a CBD and hemp farm where they harvest these herbs to make natural products as well as a cut flower farm. Speaking of cut flowers, while I was there, I saw customers picking up the most beautiful cut flower arrangements. They also have a large selection of dried flowers which we intern used to create beautiful, decorative heart-shaped wreaths. If you are looking for a small, intimate place to host a gathering or a place to do a hands-on, creative event with your friends, family or coworkers give blackberry Ridge Farms a call they've got you covered.

Their collection of CBD and hemp products is impressive (see photos for a small example). You won't regret checking out this local farm in any season. Thanks, Blackberry Ridge, for a fun Friday!
