Messer Cattle Company…read more My family has ordered Messer meat several times, and we continue to be pleasantly surprised each time. We've had a lot of meat from many different suppliers (from conventional to organic), and we can honestly say that Messer meat is THE best. The quality is outstanding, and it comes through in everything from taste to texture to cook time. So thrilled to be able to purchase such high quality meat.

Thanks to your littering, you'll never have my business.

When we went, he was very accommodating and took us in all the pens to see the pigs. He was very patient and explained all about the pigs to my daughter and she loved it. It's a small family farm. Thanks for helping me make my daughter's birthday a great one. Highly recommend.

Fall Mountain Farm is the perfect autumn activity spot for the whole family…read more I went with my wife and my family, and everyone had a blast. The farm is beautiful, and magically decorated. The staff was wonderful and kind. And there were many attractions to enjoy. My wife especially liked the 'Bunny Bungalow' building in the animal village :) My favorite parts were the hay maze and the pumpkins, which they grow themselves in patches you can see on the hay ride. I recommend going earlier in the morning to avoid long lines and to get your choice of pumpkins; the best ones are gone by the end of the day, although they're all impressive. Overall, I would absolutely recommend going. Take your spouse, take your family, go with friends. There's stuff to enjoy for everyone.

What a great arts festival for a small town like Castle Rock! The event is attended by artists…read morefrom allover the country. Some of the sculpture, paintings, textiles and photographs will really amaze you. I love exploring the individual artists tents/ booths which showcase everything from modern art to folk art and hand knit hats. I bought some great jewelry pieces. It is wonderful to have that one of a kind piece handmade by artisans. I also purchased some gorgeous hand blown glass pieces at an excellent value. This year I spent a good deal of time just wandering around enjoying the live music, the birds of prey exhibit, the delicious food and snow cones! Wine & beer were also available for those who wanted to enjoy them. I try to go every year as it now signals me that summer is coming to an end and the leaves are turning beneath the Rock. Just go and enjoy a perfect end-of-summer event in Castle Rock.
