I've been coming to Charlie Brown Farms since I was a kid, and it's honestly nice to see that it…read morehas stuck around for so long. I really like that the store has such a wide variety of merchandise, treats, and food. They carry everything from local honey and candy to turkey burgers and more unusual meats like alligator, venison, elk, and frog legs if you're brave enough to try them. They also have a lot of nostalgic items that you may recognize from childhood, which makes it a bittersweet but fun place to walk through. It's definitely a great spot if you want to take a little trip down memory lane. I usually like to stop by to buy candy or order some garlic fries. There's so much to look at that you could easily spend over an hour browsing while waiting for your food. Charlie Brown Farms remains one of those unique places that is part store, part restaurant, and part roadside attraction. It's quirky, nostalgic, and fun to visit.

Our absolute favorite stop on road trips along Pearblossom Highway -- Charlie Brown Farms is one of…read morethose places you don't expect and end up loving every single time. First of all... it's truly in the middle of nowhere, which somehow makes it even better. You pull up not knowing what to expect, and then suddenly it's everything. They have all the road trip essentials and then some -- homemade fudge, jams, salsa, fresh honey, and an impressive selection of jerky (alligator, elk, ostrich... you name it). There's also endless candy, nostalgic sodas, funnel cake, and Dole soft serve in just about every flavor you could want. But what really stands out is the selection of nostalgic toys, collector's items, and rare finds -- it's honestly mind-blowing. You can spend a lot of time just browsing and still not see everything. I always leave with more than I planned (in the best way), and it's become a must-stop every time we're passing through. And the date shake? Easily one of the best I've ever had. Inside, there's a café if you're in the mood for BBQ, plus a whole section of vintage toys and random collector finds that you didn't know you needed until you see them. It's the kind of place where you always leave with more than you planned -- in the best way. The staff is consistently friendly and helpful, which just adds to the charm. This place never disappoints -- it's become a must-stop every time we're passing through.

But the burrito was great, I could only take a couple bites and it's definitely not something I could eat in the car, but I'm so glad I stopped in. The service was fine.

So on Sunday morning at 6:10 am we left our house and got there at 7 am to pick some peaches. The sun had just risen and the orchard looked heavenly thru the peach trees. My husband and I picked a lot of peaches and some plums. I'll be making plum jam this week. But the peaches we enjoy eating as a snack, I also baked a peach galette. So delicious. The peaches are juicy and sweet. It was worth our time and money. We picked over 60 pounds. I have some to family and friends and the rest we are enjoying it daily. I even made a whipped ricotta and peach toast. Delicious. I'm hoping I will have time to go back again one more time this season. Customer service was great, a very nice and friendly family orchard .... Go support them if you are nearby. And you will love the peaches.

We decided to come and check it out on Memorial Day. (Yes they were open according to their website). We were thinking it would be in a secluded area but it was right off the main road. Definitely a great experience. My little guy had a blast picking the cherries off the floor and enjoying the great weather. It was a fun experience and I will definitely be coming back again. Pro's: very friendly staff that directed you to the best area to currently pick from. This weekend they had both renier cherries and apricots ready for picking. Not too crowded eventhough we got there around noon on a holiday. Plenty of ripe trees to choose from. Great weather. The cherries were a good size. Price is very reasonable. Porta potty on site if needed. Con's: no parking lot. Street parking only. If it gets busy you'd have to park and walk into the farm. Cash only. Due to Covid precautions they do not have a washing station for you to wash and try out the fruit or even wash your hands from picking the fruit.

An easy 1-hour jaunt from Los Angeles, jlfarms' spacious cherry orchard features 50% Rainier cherry trees (yay!) as well as Lapin, Bing, and Brooks varieties. Cherry picking season at the farm opened on June 3 this year and typically runs several weeks. Cherries are $6/pound. It being our first time cherry picking, we weren't sure what to expect when we arrived late morning on the first weekend. What we discovered: cherry picking is EASY AND FUN FOR ALL! True to the farm's website, the trees are trimmed 7 to 9 feet, with fruit-laden branches within immediate reach for adults and kids alike. In fact, cherry picking is way easier than strawberry or apple picking! A friend's pint-sized little ones had a blast picking cherries, and the number and spacing of the trees made it easy to socially distance from other groups. Within an hour or two, we picked a whopping 20 pounds of cherries! In addition to feasting on sweet fresh cherries, we also made cherry pie and turnovers and froze some cherries for later use. IMPORTANT: BRING CASH. The farm is CASH ONLY, which is not listed on the website. Sunscreen is also good, as the area can get hot, windy, and dusty (although the trees provide a nice windbreak). PRO TIP: while all the trees had lots of cherries, heading to the rows on the side of the property can be especially fruitful (pun fully intended). The cherries were so thickly clustered that you can pick them by the handful! Other notes: check the farm's website https://cherriesupick.com and call 661-944-9903 for updates on u-pick dates and hours. Apricots were also ripe when we visited, and we were allowed to pick some.

Overall: 5 Stars, cherry picking was incredibly fun and the business was so kind and welcoming in…read more I would definitely come here again! Activity: They offered cherry picking and apricot picking for one price. It was $12 entry fee and then a price for how much cherries or apricots you picked. The cherries were end of season so there wasn't a plethora, but there was enough to bring home a few pounds! You just had to look closely for them. You can taste the cherries as well while you pick! We originally came for cherry picking, but ended up loving the apricot/plum hybrids that they grew. It was so incredibly sweet and I loved that they let us try it as we picked. We ended up taking home a lot of cherries and plumcots! They are all very delicious. After we finished picking the fruit, they weighed everything out for us and packaged it in some bags. It was nice because they took apple pay/credit card so I didn't have to worry about carrying cash. Parking: There is parking on the side of the road and we didn't have an issue finding it. It wasn't very crowded on the day we went.

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!
