PROS: this place was amazing! Fresh food that's locally grown/made, petting zoo, staff is friendly, loads of parking, good prices, great hours CONS: on a Friday afternoon the petting zoo was closed despite all the animals out and no snow on the ground OVERALL: I will absolutely come back here with friends! As long as my friends and I aren't looking to play with the animals read more

A little bit of everything at this fun location. You're either coming here for the petting zoo and finding out there is also a farmer's market, or you're here for a farmer's market and finding out there is also a petting zoo. Either way, everyone's a winner. The petting zoo is much larger than others in the area, giving the pets and the customers a lot of space to roam around. You can buy your tickets online, or with the QR code on site, or with cash at the booth located at the zoo entrance at the top of the hill past the upper parking lot. The farmers market provides amazingly fresh produce, fruits, veggies, baked goods, and a pre-made food selection. You can order a fresh sandwich, sides and soup. A delicious bonus. Somethings look out for include sparce parking at the top of the hill where the farmers market is, but plenty further down and towards the greenhouse. Also seating to eat is located in the back past checkout in the playground area that is also lacking a number of tables, but make meeting new people an experience when sharing seating. A fun adventure rolled into one location. read more

Abma's Farm - Farmers Market Near Me - Wyckoff, New Jersey

Amazing family! Delicious desserts. Super friendly. Perfect place to take the family for seasonal fun activity.

The staff is always friendly and helpful, and I love supporting a 4th generation family farm so close to home.

Abma's Farm is a great family-friendly spot with lots to explore--from a $5 petting zoo to a produce and meat market, bakery, and ready-to-go meals. The lower level has a charming floral and garden center, but most of the action is up top, where there's plenty of parking. We loved visiting the animals, though some of the signs felt a bit aggressive--maybe due to past carrot incidents? Overall, a fun experience I'd come back for, but the cookies were a miss. The coconut pecan ones tasted a bit old. read more

Adorable petting zoo, our 16 month old grandson loved it, especially feeding the goats, pigs, llama and rabbits. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Their market is excellent, fresh strawberries and corn. We loved their peach and blueberry pie! Fantastic place, definitely stop by! read more

I've been coming here since my sons were little and now with my grandchildren. A great experience any time of the year but especially pumpkin picking. Do not miss the farm animals or the cider donuts! read more

Abma farms never disappoints. The adventures and theme events are always family friendly and timed perfectly. There is always a feeling of joy from the staff to be involved. We are so happy we found this, it is our go to every time with our grandson , and has quickly become a tradition. read more

It was my 1st time at the Farm. Their pick your own bouquet event was a great way to start the day. There was a beautiful, healthy, and vast selection of flowers in the field. Bring your own cutting shears, gloves & wear closed shoes as you're walking in between rows of plantings. The young lady at check-in was helpful & knowledgeable. It was a gorgeous morning. I highly recommend this activity to brighten up your day. read more

We love the sweet little petting zoo here! It's well maintained, with clean and spacious enclosures for the animals - homes that are adorably and lovingly constructed, like the "three little pigs" pens, or the "golden goat bridge" leading to a gazebo. There are goats and goat babies, alpacas, bunnies, chickies, ducks, cows, and ponies. You can buy a bucket of pellets ($8 but refillable for $3) or carrot tops to feed some of the animals. While here I like to pick up some farm fresh eggs and baked goods. The carrot cake is amazing! So moist and delicious. The market has fresh produce, groceries, cider donuts, coffee, plants and herbs, prepared foods, seasonal gifts & goods, and more. read more

I took my family here because it was a local 10 minute drive away. We were blown away with the great service. The must see is the hayride that you can go on in the fall. My kid loved the big tractor. The driver was humorous and explained safety well. The ride takes you through the farm and drops you off at a corn maze. We took the kid's version which was a straight stretch through the corn. When you exit, you are welcomed by a giant pumpkin patch. Bring cash if you want to buy one. We bought small gourds. Later, we visited the petting zoo and it was the highlight of my kid's visit, especially seeing the piglet nursery. I'm pleased to know that there is a local farm store so close to home. read more

Abma's Farm - Goats at the petting zoo. - Farmers Market Near Me - Wyckoff, New Jersey

If you're looking for a family friendly activity -- Abma's Farm has a wide range of activities to keep little humans (and adults alike) occupied and happy. Abma's Farm includes a local market, winery, greenhouse, seasonal picking options (U-pick) and mini zoo. The farm was one of the more open and quaint farms I've seen in NJ. The layout is easy to follow, with signs posted throughout directing you to where you need to go. My favorite area was the market that included fresh produce, honey, baked goodies and flowers -- my son enjoyed the zoo (the oinking pigs especially!). Sadly the alpacas were not there when we visited. Admission for under 2 year olds are free at the zoo, while adults will run you $5.50/each when booking online. It's $7/each at the door (cash only). If it's a busy day, you may be turned away, so booking in advance is recommended. The day we went wasn't crowded -- we had ample time to spend with the animals, feed them and take pictures. You can buy crackers, feed and carrot tops to give the animals at the admission window and market. Many have signs posted that certain animals bite, so beware if you have little ones. Stroller friendly and plenty of parking spread through various lots. Would love to return for a wine tasting at the winery on-site and U-pick for berries, flowers and pumpkins. A return visit is in order! P.S. Loved their prepared foods. Beef empanadas and blueberry crumb cake were delicious! Easy enough to heat at home! read more

I really don't like to give family owned businesses bad reviews but I was highly disappointed in this place. I went early on a Saturday morning just half hour after they opened to make sure I got the best picks in the market. The selection of heirloom tomatoes, my main reason for the visit, was not good. I really struggled to find any that were firm and still be really good next day, let alone 2 days. I wound up buying only a few and some other vegetables I don't normally see like Patty Pan squash. I wound up going to my local ShopRite to get the rest of my ingredients. The squash had already gone bad within two days and I had to throw it away and the only purple pepper that looked decent had no flavor. I'm hoping this was an off day for them because I always see great things. I do not believe I will be going back. read more

9/23/23: We stopped in Abma's. Abma's has a wonderful variety of plants, vegetables and baked goods. The farm has 2 Levels: - Main Level - Wonderful plants and containers. - Upper Level- Baked goods, Vegetables, Tomasello Vineyards Wine Bar and Petting Zoo. You can either walk up or drive to the upper level. We did purchase a bag of cider donuts. They were good, but a little too sweet for my taste. In addition, we did stop in Tomasello Wine bar to sample a flight. Portajohns are the only bathroom facilities. Surprisingly, they were very clean. Parking is available on the lower and upper levels at Abma's Farm. read more

What an absolutely delightful place! We've been driving 30-45 min for this type of place for years and it's so nice to finally have something local. It's so clean and fresh feeling for a farm. The animals are well kept and everything is organized and labeled well. The hours are also great. I brought my son this week on a Tuesday afternoon after school for a little mommy/son date. The animals are so animated and friendly. The concept of buying the bucket and bringing it back for refills is excellent. We loved seeing the fresh baby pigs! Also the interactive barn where you can pretend milk a cow, the sensory toys, and corn area is so thoughtful. Also so many great pic opportunities! Also grandparent day is such a gem of an idea. Just so impressed! Telling everyone! We'll be back asap. read more

Went here for my daughter's first birthday and she throughly enjoyed the entire experience! A stroller friendly farm with goats, pigs, rabbits, sheep, alpacas, pony and donkey. The staff were welcoming and the checkin was very easy (online booking only). Definitely recommend the bucket feeding if you have a baby or toddler. All animals were cute and friendly - my daughter started gossiping with the goats! Will definitely come back again. read more

I was at Abma's yesterday with 2 friends and the 3 year old daughter of one of them. We had so much fun! The animals were adorable and looked like they are being very well taken care of. Of course my friends daughter loved it but we adults really had a great time petting the cows, extremely friendly rabbits, goats and more. The staff was very nice as well. I highly recommend a trip to Abma's. read more

Both grandmas took my son on a Wednesday since grandparents are free on Wednesdays. You can buy tickets ahead of time or at the front gates They had a wonderful time. Grandmas did bring a stroller and said the hills were a little challenging, but not impossible. They loved seeing the animals and shopping for flowers afterwards. They look forward to returning and I'd love to join them next time. read more

Very cute petting zoo with a nice assortment of animals for only $5.50. my kids (4.5 and 1.5) loved it! Besides the petting zoo, they have a small play area, farmer's market (with a very wide variety of fresh and cooked food) with a wine tasting room inside, and flower greenhouses across the road. It was really nice, the petting zoo and play area is pretty self contained, so you don't have to worry too much about your kids running off. The only thing is, that it is a little smaller than I thought (but then again, it is only $5.50 a person). Also, the farmer's market is on the more expensive side. read more

Great food offerings and the petting zoo is a treat. All in Bergen County! The day I went it was busy but not packed so i really had time to spend with the animals. I ended up with home made pie as a gift read more

A one stop shop for all things fall fun! What's really nice about Abma's is there is a lot to do. You can spend a good amount of time here without getting bored, which is really great considering they charge an admission fee in the fall. The space is also huge and there is excellent crowd control! I was expecting a chaotic scene on a Saturday in October and was really relieved that this wasn't the case. The dealilo: -Admission is $18 per adult. You must purchase tickets in advance online. This gets you a hayride (select your time online, they run every 30 min), a medium sized pumpkin and admission to the petting zoo. -The hayride is quick but fun. It takes you out to a nice pumpkin patch for some cute photo opps. -Once you get back to the main area there is plenty to do. The farmers market has a ton of pumpkins and plants for purchase. There are also baked goodies galore -- donuts, cookies, cakes and everything of the sort. Plus local produce, cheeses, wines and other savory eats. Donuts are always a must in the fall, but don't sleep on the chocolate chip cookies. They are the best! -Adjacent to the market there is also a pumpkin house which made for super cute pics. -The petting zoo is actually pretty large and worthwhile! My baby girl is young for it, but I'm sure she will really enjoy the animals next year. My only gripe is the wine tasting room. You aren't able to purchase a glass of wine, and instead need to partake in an hour tasting / lesson. I'm almost sure this is because of NJ liquor laws - my guess is they probably have an educational liquor license. It would be soo nice to walk around with a hot cup of mulled wine or a spiked cider. NJ makes it tough though! -Ample parking and there is someone directing cars so you know where to park. TLDR: great for a fall fun day in Bergen County for both kiddos and adults, and worth the price for admission. All the fall photos opps you could ever want, and not a wild crowd. I have a feeling that a visit to Abmas will become an annual tradition. read more

My daughter loves this farm, they always have family friends events, small but enjoyable feeding petting zoo where the animals are clearly cared for. Their inside market has great produce spread, some cold items and chicken to purchase to cook. There's also a winery tasting room in the place and it's my fav place to just go pick up a quick tomasello wine. They also recently started carrying gluten free cookies and cider donuts. Which has been so good I buy in bulk to store at home. read more

Review is for their pies. Have had several but find them overly sweet and heavy from all the butter and oils they use. Would love to see a nutritional label so I know how much Fat, Sugar and Sodium I'm consuming. Although I'm certain they aren't a "healthy option" (not many pies are) consumers should be able to know how unhealthy the food items they purchase read more

Great little petting zoo with seasonal activities for kids. They have a few parking lots that can get crowded. For petting zoo buy tickets online, check in at the hut and buy some feed for the animals. They also have a well stocked market. Note there is a very steep incline to get up to the zoo. Ppl who use Wheelchairs will definitely need assistance. read more

Very quaint and for the price, just perfect for little ones. Pony rides addition but very affordable and our 5 year old just loved the whole day. Said it was best day ever! Really was a lovely experience. read more

We visited Abma's on a weekday to check out the petting zoo and it was not crowded at all. Our toddler absolutely loved the petting zoo- it's fairly large and we spent close to an hour walking around seeing the animals and playing in the little playhouses that are set up. The farmers market has a great selection of freshly baked goods, produce, honey, and more. We snagged a bag of chocolate chip cookies and a danish and both were delicious. Will definitely be back to visit the petting zoo again and to check out the rest of the farm! read more

I will never buy another turkey at Abmad farm. First of all, I went there at 10:30 to pick up my pre-ordered turkeys and I had to wait for 20 minutes for somebody to even acknowledge that I was online.... no one was ahead of me. There are people that came in and the back, looked me straight in eyes and kept walking. After 25 minutes they finally took my name and I waited another 10 minutes. After I complained, they said my turkey was probably in the back cooler and it's taking a long time. I would assume a 12 pound turkey is pretty standard but OK... Then when they came, they were frozen. And when I say frozen, they were as hard as a brick. I did hear another customer complaining that they were frozen. We both thought that these were fresh turkeys why are they frozen solid. They proceeded to tell me that it's because they've been in the cooler. Cooler not freezer. There's no way all these turkeys can be frozen in a cooler. They were rude, dismissive and unhelpful as if they hear 1000 times a day. They should somewhere disclose that their turkeys are frozen that it might take longer than just three days to defrost in the fridge. read more

These people are total ableist assholes who ejected my service dog and I from the petting zoo even though I was holding him in my arms and explained (which I didn't have to) that he is necessary for my wellbeing as I am someone with severe PTSD who suffers from panic attacks and he is specifically trained to help me manage them without the need for medication. My dog made little sounds twice (it's still an animal, after all, although he has received proper service animal training and has the necessary paperwork). The staff gave me issues from the moment I walked in and followed us around, waiting for an opportunity to kick us out. It was extremely rude and left me (and by extension my dog) very anxious. We were both on edge which led to the dog barking twice. Figures. I have never had a negative experience in conjunction with having a service animal. Never coming back here again. read more

Petting farm is cute but we had a horrible experience at the shop. The prices were wrong and when I saw on the receipt, I went back and asked for the difference. The cashier was so condescending and loudly said "you get 77 cents back" to tell everyone that I went back for such a petty change. It's not about the amount but about the principle. Also, at no point did I get an apology. Everyone, make sure you get a receipt and check it carefully. They trick you for more than the already super inflated prices and give you a horrible attitude when you find out. The lady after me heard the reason I went back so politely asked about her transaction, and the cashier gave her a hard time as well. I would not recommend buying anything at the store-- nothing tastes better than regular supermarket food and you pay double the price! read more

Wonderful experience for families with young children. Farm animals easily accessible and fun to feed. The farm/zoo is easy to traverse & navigate. Pet food is sold on the premises. The farm store is a nice way to leave with homemade treats. read more

Took 2 of my grands last week and even tho they are older they still enjoyed the animals...lunch was good too!

We hadn't been to Abma's farm for two summers. What an expensive petting zoo $7.00 each, senior, adult or child. Not worth it at all it's a quick walk thru and nothing exceptional. Very disappointed at the raise in price, won't be going back. Instead will go to Van Saun Park. Van Saun offers a larger zoo for less money, a wonderful train ride for a few dollars a beautiful carousel and a tremendous playground. The playground is free. Beautiful walking paths. read more

Amazing market and petting farm. So many different animals, very nicely built setup, and all of the animals and staff (including resident kiddos) were very friendly. Will definitely be coming back. read more

We have been coming to Abma Farms for 5+ years. It is so great for the little ones. The kids really enjoy being able to feed the animals and riding the pony's. You have to buy the food from them. It is $1 for 2 crackers, $8 per bucket with pebbles & the carrots tops for the bunny's are from the carrots you buy from the market! ;) The staff is always friendly. The farm market is always fresh. We always buy the carrots as well as the chicken salad. Probably the best chicken salad in the area. It's pricey but a must!! read more

Abma's is an old family farm in Wyckoff on the border of Franklin Lakes. It is a well maintained, pristine farm with an eye-popping farm store with a gourmet selection of pies, wines, breads, cheeses, quiches, fresh eggs, poultry, beef, deli salads, honey, syrups, fresh fruits and salads, etc. Practically everything you need to feed your family locally farm to table. They sell beautiful flowers, pots of herbs, wreath. If you are looking for a bargain, this is not the place for you. A farm in the heart of Wyckoff, Bergen County, New Jersey, one of the most expensive counties in the nation, is not going to be cheap. Instead you will get high quality, tasty, well merchandised product and pay a few extra bucks for everything. Abma's farm is well worth the visit. Treat yourself to something delicious and support a local farmer! This farm has a fantastic country feel with a great small zoo on the premises. They have alpacas, pigs, goats, bunnies, turkeys, horses, donkeys and so much more. Tickets are $4 each to enter the zoo and you can purchase animal feed. So much fun. The kids just LOVE it!! And, visit the zoo even if you done have kids! I was there during the week so there was plenty of parking with a big lot between the farm store and the zoo. I think the have overflow parking below the farm store as well. read more

This place was so cute and perfect for our 18 month old and her 2.5 year old friend. They walked around to get some energy out and loved looking at all of the precious animals! I loved all the quirky signs in front of the animal pens. We stopped into the market afterwards and picked up some lunch items and a pie for dessert. The Dutch apple pie was delicious FYI it's cash only to get into the petting zoo and for the animal food but you purchase tickets online it looks like! We were able to use a credit card in the market. read more

Great spot for the kids. They have groups of 7 or so different animals and you can buy food to feed them. We easily spent 30 minutes there and did the full circuit. They also sell pony rides! Make sure your kid is not afraid of the pony though :(. There is also a decent-sized general store across the parking lot featuring lots of fresh produce. Also look for pies, donuts, hot sauce, and honey. And I found a little wine shop inside! read more
