Tickets are $7/adult which pays for the first lb, and after that it's only $2/lb for organic apples!! The GPS takes you to 1875 Hames Rd which is their house, so keep driving down Hames, you'll pass some horses on the right, and then you'll see the entrance to the apple orchard. Drive through the path to reach the parking lot. You check in at the barn. There are porty potties with hand-washing. It is 17 acres of apple orchards to explore! We came pretty late in the season, but there were still plenty of beautiful, crisp, juicy, perfectly sweet apples (we picked 11 lbs!!) In September they had Gala apples, and in October thy had Fuji apples this year. I had gone berry picking with my kids in the past and wasn't sure if they'd be able to reach apples, but actually all the trees are super short, the apples grow so low to the ground my 2 and 4 year olds had no problems picking all the apples they wanted! The only thing was that the weeds grow pretty high in the aisles, which makes it a little bit of an adventure to trek through- I would recommend long pants. Karell the owner is super friendly, talked to us about the farmland and apples, and was very kind to our kiddos. You can also walk over to their stables to see their horses and feed them apples. Sign up NOW if you want to make the last pickings of 2021! Otherwise we'll see you there in 2022 for sure!

Jennifer will help guide you and educate you on the descriptions of the items and how they are made.

The Great Pumpkin Patch is a cute local patch in Soquel with lots of activities. It looks like it…read morehas more things for little kids, like preschooler age (ie, cow train), but then there are activities like the pumpkin slingshot and some BB gun thing! The only downside, and I think it's a big one, is the cost. Right when you walk in, they hand you a waiver form to sign, then it's a $4 entrance fee. THEN it costs money for any of the activities! If you are bringing your kids, you'd want to probably do a couple activities and buy a couple pumpkins. You can easily spend $100 here. That seems ridiculous to me, especially when there are so many other patches here and many don't ask for that much money. I'm all for small businesses making a profit, but it has to make sense because we are families trying to make a living too. The petting zoo was what my child and I were there for, and I felt that was poorly managed unfortunately. There were wonderful animals in there (little bunnies, little pigs, ducks, goats), but there was no time limit and the staffer didn't watch the people when they were with the animals. The 2 families who went before us were in the petting zoo for extended amounts of time (one was inside for 30 MINUTES!) and the youngest child was very rough with the small animals as well as chasing them. They refused to leave, even though they saw we had been waiting for so long and the staffer said nothing. The family left only when the small animals hid from them (ie, went inside the little house, hid under the table, hid behind the staffer). By the time we went in the petting zoo, the animals were "done". They had just been roughly handled and chased, so now they were hiding. We just paid $12 to pet goats and sheep. I would like to see The Great Pumpkin Patch succeed. I hope they'll be around for a long time. I just think the business model needs to be fine tuned a little, and the staff needs to be trained a little (like teach the ones who work the petting zoo to tell people to be gentle with the animals, or to have a 15 min time limit when there are others waiting).
