Their BBQ sauces are literally like home made, including relishes, jams, chutneys, etc. Lots of activities for children, great café and croissants for the adults. Nice crowd frequenting this place.

This is a popular place, and with good reason…read more Just 15 minutes north of the city you'll find flowers, tomatoes, peppers, and, when it's the season, beautiful, fresh-picked strawberries and raspberries. Apparently in the fall they have pumpkins, too. The annuals and hanging flower baskets are blooming full of colour. We picked up two flats of sweet strawberries for jam and desserts and they were utterly delicious. The people staffing the market are friendly and helpful, and they have a debit machine. There's parking, but sometimes the drivers are a bit rude. Still, the produce at Hutchinson Farm is as fresh as it gets.

It's not only fruits and vegetables, they make amazing "vegan" meals that you can have delivered or just pick up. They also have many Cold-Pressed Juices they make themselves, all of them filled with vegetables yet taste like fruit. They also have juice "detoxes" where they make you a bunch of juice in advance so you can drink it during the week, in the convenience of your own home or at work. I must say, everything I've eaten or drank there has not only tasted great but also made me feel healthier, including knowing I'm making a choice to put my health first in a not expensive way. It's hard for a mother of 2 boys to take care of "herself" and eat properly, Farmer Jack's made it super easy. It's almost like Jenny Craig but better because they deliver! If you are looking to make healthier choices, eat more local foods, try a juice detox, or just want to eat something really yummy, I 100% recommend Farmer Jack's! Low prices, great service and a healthier "you", how can you top that? Try it! I have no doubt you'll love it.

At the Pick Your Own (PYO) check-in, you can pay $10.5 for a small basket that holds approximately 2 lbs. or $21 for a large basket that holds approximately 4 lbs. It is on a first come first serve basis and if you go early in the morning, it will be less crowded and you will have more privacy while picking the strawberries. We bought 2 large baskets and spent almost an hour exploring the farm and picking our strawberries. I tasted a few and they were very delicious and was wondering to myself why we pay so much for market strawberries that don't taste half as good. On the way out, we went inside the market and bought some of their products and also enjoyed our sundae with fresh strawberries. It is a nice experience for the families, especially if you have kids.

The place itself is cute - you can pick your own pumpkin ($12) which I find expensive (but I do…read morelike to support local farmers), and pay $5/person for a tractor ride, corn maze and to climb on some hay for the kids. Service was friendly. The reason why I'm docking all these stars is because it smelled so terribly when we were there, it was overwhelming, and it dampened all the fun. Either it is extremely strong manure, or from the compost place across the street. It was so pungent, and I would not return for this reason alone.

Not a lot of organic vendors though, if that's what you're looking for. I think Lauray Farms is the only one. If you're picky about buying local, always read the signs for the produce and/or ask the vendors if their produce is local because some just pick up their produce from the food terminal.

It's NOT the first ranch on the left on Burnhamthorpe w/ the two GSDs! One more over or till u see the green roof barns. We were greeted by two friendly dogs who led us to the back (how cute is that? seriously?). We paid the fee ($40 cash or $42+HST) & signed a waiver (naturally) and they had a demo on riding. Helmet rental was free (mandatory for children & recommended for adults). However, due to the light rain that day, a few helmets were wet...on the inside. Or is that sweat? hmm.... The trail was definitely scenic and quite spacious. It was truly beautiful! It is probably so amazing here around the fall. They also offer lessons, boarding, hay/sleigh rides. Great for groups and parties. The horses were all quite gentle. Anyhow, we were warned they are like high school kids and have their own little clique. The more dominant horses wouldn't like if others were ahead of them in the trial ride line. So we had to watch out for that. How cute! Just like my dog lol What I liked about the one hour trail ride was... we got to jog at least 3 times (aftermath: a sore bum but it was fun!). I've been to another ranch where they only let you jog once & trails were mostly in a tight forest...but not so much for this one. Lots of fields. A bit of everything... and of course lots of horse sh*t. Massive... lol We were allowed to look at the horses in the stables as well. Some flies in there but that is expected. We had a bit of rain so they went away after a while. There were prob around 20 horses there. They seemed happy & healthy. Lots of different sizes. Love them all esp my horse :D I miss my Lucy! She was prob one of the bigger horses. Not sure why I was paired w/ her as I was nearly doing the splits while climing down (thank god for yoga!). But I LOVE Lucy & happy they put me with her anyway. Can't wait to come back again!

For $80+ hst, they teach you how to steer your horse and then you have the horse hike along a path…read morethat is mostly tree covered with bushes and grass to the side. The horses essentially follow each other. You get to hold the reins and play cowboy for about 35 mins. Overall it's a ride on a horse along a path, not much else. If you are scared of horses or just want the experience i'd say try it out but tbh there is sooooo much more you can do with $80 with an hour imo.
