Farming is brutally hard work -- and unless you love your work -- the results will underwhelm…read more Here at Anvil Farms, the farmer and his wife are the real deal - love what they do -- devoting 100% of their energies to growing some beautiful flowers and flavorful veggies for the past 30+ years. The manicured grounds are off the beaten path -- down the road from Bamber Lake. You almost have to know they are tucked away off the main road to find them. I visited while on a bike ride in the area -- going slow enough I guess to spot the modest signage on the highway. At 50mph I would have missed it. In about a month the first greens of the season (escarole and romaine) will be on sale -- followed by all the usual south Jersey suspects -- like garlic and tomatoes and eggplant and potatoes. The farm also carries local apples and other fruit in season -- grown elsewhere. Don't miss this real deal. The farmer will show you around and happily explain how he runs his operation -- from fertilizer -- to seed -- to harvest. I cannot get enough of real Americana. Nice to accidentally find examples of the micro industry that first built this country -- like Anvil Farms -- and admire tradition. Makes my day.

Tip: Buy your entry tickets online -- it's cheaper than getting them at the gate! This place runs on a "park-and-pick" setup, meaning you'll drive to different spots around the farm for each activity. Apple picking is by bag size, not by the pound -- the smallest bag was $7.50 and fit about 10-12 apples. It was hot the day we went, so we stuck to apple picking and cooled off at the marketplace afterward (skipped the maze and sunflowers). The cider and donuts were just okay compared to other farms I've been to, but the apple cider slush? Totally addictive (even if it's $9 -- ouch). Once the sun eased up later in the afternoon, we stopped by to see the goats and chickens and hopped on the hay ride -- the perfect cozy ending to the day.

Came for Chol Moed trip and my older boys were extremely bored. If you are coming to pick pumpkins or to stroll around the farm, it is very clean and a nice environment, but if you are coming to entertain kids over the age of seven, it may prove to be difficult. I would wish if they would offer horse rides or a more interactive petting zoo . Again, no complaints about the staff or facilities just a slightly boring experience for our family .

It's a smaller farm than nearby Johnson's Corner farm, and they don't grow any food to my knowledge, so it's much less crowded and chaotic, plus cheaper. You can't pick your own berries or apples or anything, but the hayride out to the "pumpkin patch" is fun to do in the fall, and there is enough to do besides pumpkin picking to stretch it into a full afternoon of inexpensive family friendly fun. They have a playground, goats and alpacas, a small maze, plus plenty of food and live music on the weekends. My girlfriend, 11-year-old son and I recently tried their winter wonderland illuminated walking trail which they just started up in 2022. For the three of us, after taxes and fees, it was $57.90. It was a very pleasant night strolling the 1/4 mile trail filled with lights and christmas music, plus the several campfires set up at the end of the trail.
