It is a small farm stand with a small amount of produce, but legit everything they had was good produce and about $2-$3 less than Stop and Shop and $1 less than Market Basket. The best find: Boars Head Meats! Normally I head to Stop and Shop but their prices have been insane. Farmer Browns was LEGIT $5 less per lb!!!! than at my Stop and Shop. Do yourself a favor and save some money and support a local business at the same time! Another great thing...lots of soups! They had about 10 soups and all looked delicious! My next dinner plan!

I got clean eatz for most meals for a 6-week period when cooking wasn't an option, and it was super helpful. Meals are yummy and if you pay attention to how you reheat (put things like chicken nuggets in air fryer, not microwave) and what you freeze (don't freeze meals that include items that don't freeze well (duh!)), you'll be very happy! I will continue to get clean eatz for easy lunches and a few dinners per week since I cook but I don't loooove to cook. The owner of the Danvers location is an amazing and friendly local, so you can feel good about supporting the business while you eat right!

Connors Farm: Not Your Average Fall Farm Experience!…read more While visiting my sister in Boston, I got to tag along for her family's annual trip to Connors Farm! My sister, brother-in-law, and their friends visit every year thanks to one of their friends who hosts a Family Day through her company and invites practically everyone she knows. Since I was in town, I got to join in on the fun! Now, they kept telling me how AMAZING this place was, but I wasn't entirely convinced. I've been to plenty of fall farm festivals, and they're usually some variation of apple picking, cider donuts, hayrides, and corn mazes. Cute, but nothing I hadn't seen before. Well, let me tell you...I was WRONG! Connors Farm is less of a traditional fall farm and more of a full-blown FALL CARNIVAL! Let's start with the FOOD because they did not come to play! There were SO many options! Chicken tenders, fries, pizza, pulled pork and chicken sandwiches, brisket, mac and cheese, fried chicken -- you name it! And the desserts?! Funnel cakes, fried Oreos, apple cider donuts, apple crisp with ice cream, and plenty of other sweet treats. Basically, if you're trying to make healthy decisions, this might not be the place for you. For drinks, they had plenty of Pepsi products, hot and cold apple cider, hot chocolate, and even slushie sodas. One thing worth mentioning: NO alcohol! They do offer nonalcoholic beers, though, and you definitely want to read those labels carefully because some look just like the real thing. Now, the ACTIVITIES?! This is where Connors Farm really shines! There is SO much to do, especially if you're bringing kids! Corn mazes and apple picking The Putnamville Railroad train ride and hayrides Giant jumping pillows and an in-ground moonbounce HUGE colorful slides that you ride down on sacks An apple-shooting game where you launch apples at targets in the woods Carnival-style games, including basketball and skee-ball ‍ Ropes courses, pedal carts, Fort Connors, and multiple playgrounds And that's not even everything! There's genuinely enough to keep families entertained for HOURS. I completely understand why my sister and her friends make this an annual tradition. A few things to know before you go! Weekday admission is listed at $15.99 online or $20.99 at the gate, and children ages one and under get in free with a paying adult. Parking is also FREE! Admission includes plenty of activities, including the train ride, corn maze, hayrides, ropes course, jumping pillows, pedal carts, Fort Connors, and play areas. Some specialty activities may cost extra, so keep that in mind. And pay attention to the rules because they're pretty strict: No backpacks No smoking No outside food or beverages Plan accordingly, especially if you're bringing little ones! Overall, Connors Farm completely exceeded my expectations! I went in thinking this would be another cute little fall outing and quickly realized why everyone was hyping it up. There's an incredible variety of food, activities for all ages, and enough entertainment to make an entire day of it. Whether you're going with kids, friends, or just want to embrace all things fall, Connors Farm is absolutely worth visiting! Would I go back? ABSOLUTELY! And next time my sister tells me something is worth the hype, maybe I'll just believe her the first time.

Paid $80 for four tickets for my family -- two adults and our two young children. We were there for…read moreapproximately TEN MINUTES. My two-year-old's wristband fell off somewhere inside. When we went to the front desk, I showed them the $80 transaction proving I had just paid for four admissions. But here's the part that is genuinely unbelievable: the front desk employee said, verbatim, "Yes, I remember you got four tickets, and I watched you put it on him." So there was literally no dispute. Their own employee confirmed that I paid for my son's admission AND that she personally watched me put his wristband on him. A man was then called over and, despite hearing this, repeatedly told me that because my two-year-old no longer had his wristband, I hadn't purchased his admission. I kept explaining that I had. I showed him the payment. His own employee told him I had. He kicked my entire family out anyway. They told me they processed a full refund, which I will update this review to confirm once it appears on my card. I can understand having a wristband policy. I cannot understand accusing a customer of not paying when you have both proof of payment AND an employee standing there confirming she personally watched the wristband go onto the child's wrist. Absolutely appalling way to treat a family over a two-year-old losing a wristband. We will never return. This is the guy who clearly has an ax to grind with a two year old. I'd be careful with this place- clearly a scam.

It is located on a cool road. Before you reach the farm, you come across historical landmarks. The farm is a good place for little ones. It has a petting and feeding area. A nice playground and a you pick area. It also had an area with flowers. Inside the store is found vegetables and fruits, both fresh and preserved. It had some other items like seasonings, candles, candy, and baked goods, I got something sweet called stop the .... I don't remember the third word, but it got my attention. It tasted like a well-made apple butter. I liked it. The cinnamon bread was a little on the dry side. I can see why it would be good for French Toast. I found the service nice. The young ladies working the counter were helpful. Cool farm to visit.
