I thought it would be a fun, local activity and I could not have been more pleasantly surprised. Jesse is an absolute amazing, fun and thoughtful host/owner.

When you see how the animals interact with Jesse, you know without a doubt these animals are loved and cared for like family. We will certainly be visiting again.

We had two seniors (my parents), and three adults. It's $11.57 for adults, $8.41 for seniors, and $5.73 for children under 15. The Queen Creek Botanical Garden is a fully functional, edible landscape, a sacred garden, and an event venue. Guests can explore the hidden alcoves, English Gardens, grassy meadows, Japanese terraced gardens, legend falls, a turn-of-the-century water wheel, hillside gardens, scavenger hunt for kids, and so much more. However, the garden is very small. We were probably there for 30-45 minutes, but we played the lawn games, sat down, and took lots of photos. You can easily explore the whole garden in 15 minutes or less. Guests can rent a canoe for an additional charge but I believe you can fish for no additional charge. The garden is beautiful, serene, and well maintained. It's worth visiting at least once.

The lights, music, activities, vendors were all good in general which is why I'm giving 3 stars. Except for the items that follow, this would be a very wonderful experience. The part that decreased the rating is the Christian nationalism. Nothing says "birth of our Savior, peace on Earth, good will to mankind" like the juxtaposition of the manger scene across from the American war and killing machine, complete with tanks and paratroopers and the police. And of the 10 songs they kept on loop, 2 were nationalist songs. One of the songs was literally the military recruiting jingles from the 1980s recruitment commercials. The second song was the Toby Keith Trump campaign song "Proud to be an American" . What does that have to do with Jesus, Mary and Joseph? The 10 songs looped every 30 minutes. That means every child there heard those two songs about 4 times in 2 hours. Christofascist propaganda at its worst directed toward children. The USA is the largest human rights violator on the planet, the literal antithesis of Christ and his message of peace and love. The last thing there were small animals without warm accommodations. They should put down some clean straw maybe more enclosure for the babies, or put them up at sunset. The Bible also states that we are to be good stewards to the animals on this planet. https://lightsatthefarm.com/

He's friendly, hilarious, and knows more about bees than Google. Ask him anything--just be ready to laugh and learn. The stand is outdoors with plenty of fresh air and ample parking--so you can roll up stress-free and leave with a trunk full of sweet goodness. The rustic, open-air vibe just adds to the magic. The ambiance? It's part of the charm and makes the whole experience feel like a sweet little escape from the city buzz. They've got flavors like Wildflower, Orange, Cactus, Mesquite, Cat's Claw, Clover... and then there's Suicide Honey--my absolute fave. Bold name, bolder flavor. It's golden, smooth, and wildly delicious. The only honey I eat or recommend. Yes, it's pricier than the grocery store squeeze bottle--but it's worth every penny. You're getting handcrafted, local, liquid gold. They also sell pollen, queen bees (yep, royalty), and offer beekeeping classes if you're ready to join the hive. Bottom line? This place is the bee's knees. Buzz over and treat yourself.

I would have always, and, unquestionably given Bambox Produce 5 stars…read more The product, microgreens, and the faculties are excellent. We started with Bambox when they were based in Old Town Scottsdale. Bambox has the best selections of microgreens salads. They are fresh and very tasty. Lately the customer service is nonexistent. The phone line is now out of service. No one is staffing the front desk anymore so I'm unable to stop and pick up my salads. I have a paid subscription, so funds are being taken from my account and I'm receiving..... nothing. The Contact person, Nathan, has not bothered to return any text messages lately. Bambox started out very strong and reliably consistent. I've wasted, time, Gas, and patience lately. Bambox charges for a Service it no longer provides to me. The "interns" work for free and I think that's the main issue. Bambox should actually Pay the workers so that there is some incentive to be responsible to provide its products to its PAYING CONSUMERS. I would hope that the management of BAMBOX reads this review and decide to rectify this problem. Marianne and I have been buying salads from BAMBOX for over a year, almost two. Marianne had Cancer and wanted the purest of foods. We found that with BAMBOX. Marianne died from her Cancers on June 2,2019. I've maintained the subscription because I've enjoyed the product. It's too bad that BAMBOX no longer wants to have any accountability for providing Customers, especially longterm Customers, with the product. Nathan has my contact info. - Tony Winters

2/28/26: it was disappointing eating lunch at The Farm. Years ago we had eaten at Quiessence and…read morehad a lovely time. Wanting to try another of their restaurants before the ungodly heat arrived, we decided to stop in for lunch. Parking: can be a bit nerve wracking, especially parking in the dirt lots east of the place. You have to walk across 32nd St & if you know Phoenix drivers, this can be dangerous. There is a pedestrian light now, though, so that helps -- but oddly enough, there's no "walk" signage. It's merely a blinking yellow light for north- sound-bound traffic so you have to pray to the universe drivers are paying attention & actually stop for you. Ordering: a bit odd. The main door we went in was more the middle door that didn't really take you to the beginning. There's a drink station then the food station. We skedaddled to the right of the main doors for the drink order, only to discover there's another door that people walk through to place orders. So we joggled w/ another customer trying to figure out who was there first. It honestly felt like a school cafeteria, a bit chaotic, as well as cramped. The patio was pretty large & well shaded, but it was also full -- and this particular day also the ONLY SHADE. We were left to sit at one of their many tables on the grounds with no shade. Food: not worth the $77 we paid. I get it's a working farm, & though we try to support local as much as possible, the food we ordered was not good enough that we will stop by again. The strawberry fields salad was a typical salad, no wow factor there. The Italian sammy was dry. There was a minuscule amount of some kind of dressing on it, but def not enough. Dessert: red velvet whoopie pie was so overpriced it's not funny. If it tasted great, I wouldn't complain...it did not taste great. The pecan pie was abysmal; not enough filling and very bland. Two "specialty" drinks, a salad, a sandwich, & two small desserts, for $77? No, sorry, not again.
