Parking was fine right by the trees so the walk was not far. You can pay by cash, check, or Venmo. They did weigh the blueberries with the bucket and then dumped it in a bag, but otherwise it was a nice activity. We would definitely return at some point.

They also were given free bread to go feed the farm animals- some friendly goats and cows. We packed a lunch for the girls and ate at a picnic table on the property. Good prices for blueberries by the pound and friendly people. We will definitely be back next summer! FYI- You have to check Facebook to find out when and if they're open in the summer for picking. When the bushes get too picked over they will close until they are ready again!

The 60 min session consist of beginner poses so its family friendly. After the yoga session, the farm owners' daughter enlightened us on the history of the farm and how they came about raising alpacas. While there, we were able to interact, take pictures and feed the alpacas. The drive from Atlanta is about 60 mins. If you put on your favorite podcast or playlist while making the drive, you'll be there in no time. It's also a cool drive if you wanna clear your head.

I love just about any event held at Lawrenceville Lawn, and this one was no exception. I've…read moreattended a few events here over the years, and I absolutely loved the Atlanta Christkindl Market. The festive atmosphere, variety of vendors, and overall energy really made it feel like a true holiday experience. That said, this event has clearly outgrown the venue. There were a lot of people--so many that at times it was hard to move comfortably, and even hard to breathe in certain areas. While most vendors were very friendly, I did have one minor hiccup where an order placed after mine was served first. I'll omit the business name out of respect, but it did stand out. On the positive side, the hot mulled wine was excellent. I did find it a little amusing that you have to purchase the signature cup in order to get it, but in the end, I walked away with a nice keepsake, so no real complaints there. Overall, this was a fun and memorable event. Plenty of free parking in the surrounding area, great vibes, and a solid reason to come back--ideally at a larger venue next time.

It was so nice to see people of all different ages and cultures there enjoying the market. The booths were well organized, and the employees we encountered were all very friendly. So many different great offerings of food and gifts and fun. We are thrilled that they moved it out here to lawrenceville. We parked at the justice center and took the very short walk through the well lit and decorated for Christmas path that went from the parking lot to the main street not far from the entrance to the market. Don't waste your time on taking the shuttle. The walk is super easy. We will look forward to coming back again next year.

Went to Turn-About Ranch for a birthday party for myself, wife and son recently. The ranch is on a…read moresprawling multi-acre estate. When arriving, we were welcomed warmly by the owners of the property. You can see right away that this is going to be a great time. There was a large outdoor movie screen and while there were some technical difficulties getting the screen set up, we were completely happy with every effort made and ultimately the movies were playing. The interior of the main building is a beautiful country/farm chic and is very well appointed. The young woman running the kitchen laid out an enormous spread that seemed never ending and included delicious subs, home made pasta salads, pizza and much more. Cold drinks were plentiful for lounging on the rocking chars at the front porch. The bar contains top shelf alcohol to rival any large liquor store. Side by sides and four wheeled vehicles were there for people to rove about the property and if you're lucky you might get a run at the bulldozer. While we didn't go to the shooting range on this occasion, we will be sure to go back and give it a go. At the end of the night one of our hosts put on a fireworks display that made us feel like we were at Epcot on a Saturday night and the crowd chanted our hosts name in wonder at each colorful display. Overall this was an amazing experience. Will definitely go again and can't wait to go back!

It's a small-ish festival, but I feel like it won't be small for long. The food here was fantastic…read more And people were friendly. The Polish Pierogi Festival is the annual fundraiser for the Saint John Paul II Polish Apostolate. There you'll find Folk Dancers, Pierogi, Gotabki (stuffed cabbage--delicious), Grilled Kietbasa, Polish Beers, and Polish merchandise. Food items are sold by ticket. (But everything else is free: free admission, free parking, free entertainment...) Definitely buy your food tickets in advance (pick them up at Will Call) and get there early. The food is good, and people are realizing this, so the line for tickets can get long, and they may run out of food if you show up late. Food tickets are $1 each. Savory dishes range from 3 to 8 tickets each. My favorite items were the Gotabki, and the Potato and Cheese Pierogi. (The Mushroom and Sauerkraut Pierogi were a close second.) The Grilled Kielbasa and Bigos is noteworthy. Bigos is NOT sauerkraut. It's something of a "stew" made with cabbage, pork, and tomatoes. Delicious. I do wish the festival were later in the year. Late August is brutally hot to be eating food at a sunny table. The food itself is sold inside Parish Hall. The line moves swiftly, but it does get crowded. And that room needs better air conditioning to handle those crowds. On the other side of Parish Hall you'll find a wide variety of baked Polish goods from Grand Bakery & Café. This line does not move as fast, and they take cash for their goods. But the baked goods are really good. We sampled a variety of sweet rolls, donuts, and turnovers. They also sell whole loaves of bread and boxed cakes. I took home a whole poppy seed roll. It is very dense. I can't wait to cut into it later on. So keep this Festival on your radar for next year. I'll be there. Holler if you're coming with.

Everyone under the age of three is free, adult have to pay to get in. Price varies, depending on what day of the week it is. You can go to their website and see the pricing. They open in the late afternoon around 5 PM. They close around 9:30 to 10 PM depending on the day. It's not shaded so be warned. it's a great place to bring young kids and even slightly older children. They have a small playground, a small area that's covered to eat. A food truck with funnel cakes and Oreos and corn dogs, but you can bring your own food and drinks. There's tons of cool, animated dinosaurs. When it starts getting dark, they light up, which is really nice but the catches in the summer the sunsets later so you gotta keep your kids up a little late. They have a little dance area. They have a train, a little go kart type thing and a bounce house. The extra stuff like the go kart and the train cost extra starting at five dollars a person so the price can add up. I ended up paying around $94 for three adult tickets and three train rides for adults on a Wednesday. The dinosaurs are animated or lit up. It's not huge and so it's a nice place to bring the kids because it's not overwhelming. It's in the parking lot at the mall of Georgia near the Belks. There is plenty of parking when we went, but it was a Wednesday, but I'm sure it gets busy on the weekends. I do think it's a touch price for what they offer but I think it's a fun event for young kids, especially. Everyone there is very nice. I'm not sure how clean the bounce houses that we did not go inside. The go-kart cart type dinosaurs were very fun to ride, but aren't the cleanest, but what is with little kids? Overall, my daughter had an amazing time and so for that, I would give it five stars. It's also really pretty at night when it lights up. I think it's an interesting experience that I would do again.

Overall the experience was so nice , I would have never thought it took so much to make anything glass lol gives me much appreciation for the work they do . The studio is nice, the instructor was informative and made sure we stayed safe and understood the process . The prices were well worth it as well for the final product and experience .
