Was able to leisurely wander the garden and cut the flowers that I wanted and made a bouquet. When I went inside the flower barn they helped arrange my bouquet and added some touches to it and made it beautiful. After my friend and I did the bouquets we decided to get something to eat at the outside Cafe. Our server was very friendly and explained about their farm-to-table approach. I had the Capay Cuban sandwich which was delicious. They had homemade dill pickles on it. I had their hand cut French fries that had miso aioli and jalapeño ranch that had just a little kick. They didn't have a large selection to choose from but everything looked yummy. There is a bar there and had specialty drinks available. They have a little marketplace where they sell dried flower arrangements as well as gift sets of their vinegar, oils,soaps, jams, nuts and honey. They also sell mugs and clothing with their name on it.

It was quite hot, but the restaurant had ample shading and misters. Food and drinks were typical for a weekend brunch. The flower farm was a real standout! The staff gave us a quick but comprehensive tour and provided metal flower vases, clippers, and parasols for the heat. I loved the variety of flowers! Definitely recommend this experience to others looking for a unique afternoon activity. But would recommend bringing a hat if going in the spring and summer for the heat.

Absolutely heartbreaking. I have never seen animals treated so poorly. The ducks had no water and…read morewere so desperate that they immediately started gulping it down when they finally had access to some. When we asked an employee to refill their water, he refused. The rabbits had no water at all. I also saw newborn goats crammed into a small cat crate, crying continuously. During the winter, there were cats that were so cold they could barely move, and nothing was done to help them. No animal deserves to live like this. The lack of basic care and compassion is unacceptable. Based on what I personally witnessed, these animals deserve far better than what they're receiving here.

Walt from Walt's Adventures adventuring at the Menagerie Hill Ranch in Vacaville, California…read more Life can be interpreted as more fulfilling when filled with adventures. It is wise to step outside your environment and, in the case of this current venture, go visit an Alpaca farm. The Menagerie Hill ranch has beautiful animals. The host was awesome and knowledgeable. We increased our knowledge of the animals and of the farm but also got to feed them. We also had the opportunities to get close and personal with them for pictures. They were all friendly and fluffy. I recommend this unique experience for all because if you do not just break your usual pattern to stop and smell the roses or to pet and feed an Alpaca, life will pass by before you know it. Put your life on pause just for a few hours and go see the Alpacas. They would like to share peace with you. You can find them at the Menagerie Hill Ranch

This was a memorable trip. We were originally slated to visit in late June before my birthday but…read moreboth Deb and Kirk were recovering from surgery. We stayed in touch over the next several weeks before settling on an August date. We braved the high temps and winding roads to arrive at the ranch. It's a beautiful space on a hillside and you can see the herd and their guardian llama as you pull into the parking lot. We learned a lot about the alpaca life cycle, fed the boys, and my daughter got to hold and carry a cria. We bought two cute alpaca shaped soaps. I didn't experience any of the negativity others have complained about. It is a working ranch so it's not a petting zoo or a tourist attraction. Go with the flow and you'll have a great experience.

If the owners do not want folks renting their place or want to watch renters/guests every move, then why are you renting it out??? The owner even came inside the reception hall two minutes before the "end time" and was yelling "wrap up, wrap up" in a rude horrific tone. I've been to a lot of venues and there is just a way to handle things nicely and professionally (it was a small party too). Don't you want future business? Crazy

The BerryFest Strawberry Festival exceeded my expectations. I've been to Yolo Fairgrounds before…read morefor the Honey festival and others and wasn't too inpressed, but I didn't expect Berryfest to be so large and enjoyable! Parking is plentiful at $10 or you can park outside and walk in. There were SO many vendors selling all kinds of knick knacks, drinks, desserts, snacks, and strawberry themed stuff, and I was able to get craft unsweetened ice tea instead of sugary drinks. The vendors were outside and in two separate indoor warehouse areas. The best part was the Amazing Animal World showcasing their reptiles inside, for free!! We stood in line, which wrapped around their tables and we were able to hold slinks, snakes, scorpion, and bearded dragons. So cool! Thw toycar racing was also free inside and lots of tastings like the honey stalls. There was also an animal petting area and horserides for a cost, but I don't support those because those poor animals are so overstimulated. Although, the baby llamas were really cute. There were a good variety of food trucks and tents. On the lawn was a huge car show. Then there's the nook that takes you down various California farm's fruitstands, some from Santa Cruz. They had the sweetest strawberries and blackberries I've ever had, so of course we brought some baskets home. I wish there was more entertainment and more strawberry-infused unique foods. I was expecting strawberry ice cream at the least but didn't find any. Overall, the festival had something for everyone and it was great that they had the indoor areas to escape the heat. Great variety of food and fun.

What a fun time we had today. We weren't familiar with the festival till this year when my…read morehusband's barber gave home 2 tickets to the festival. We're always up to trying new things and free had our attention. With a predetermined temperature of 92 today we had to strategize. We couldn't arrive when it opened as we had a church BBQ to go to. We ended up arriving at 2pm, the peak of the day. We didn't realize the festivities wrapped up at 4pm. We parked our car in the JC Penny's parking g lot across from the entrance. So convenient. It was $10 cash. I'm glad I went to the website for the festival and knew to bring cash. The fair was a quick walk from our car. The entrance is on the street corner opposite the entrance to the parking lot. Soon as we arrived we ventured to the bathrooms. There wasn't a line and they were well kept and supplied and smelled fresh. Next we checked out the huge car show. So many beautiful cars from different eras. As we were passing the food venders I spotted a shaved ice stand with a line in front, but the line was in the shade do we hopped in line. It was a quick line and the lovely gal offered us a mini donut after I exclaimed that was our next stop. The donut was still hot, covered with cinnamon sugar and just melted in our mouths. As good as I remembered them. Back to the shaved ice. it was $10 plus tax. It was your typical fair shaved ice with many floors to choose from. It wasn't my first pick of a cold treat, but it worked. I was more in the mood for a fresh strawberry or berry smoothy, but we never did find that so I'm glad we grabbed the first cold treat that we saw. It was really refreshing and a fun sweet treat. We sat under the trees on a bench we shared with a gentleman who was also eating a snow cone. I wish it was the Japanese kind with the snow. If you haven't had it before you've got to try it. It's so finely shaved that it's literally like snow falling from the sky. It was warm out but not hot enough to melt our snow cone and make a sticky mess. Next we went to the indoor stage and watched a roping demo. That was a fun sight to see. After that we went on the hunt for the farmers market section. We found it all the way in the back, past all the craft and other vendors. All the vendors had samples and buy, were those strawberries sweet. Nothing like the ones at the store. There were so many to choose from. I don't know how people decide. We choose to buy them from the last vendor. It was $21 for 3 baskets or 6 baskets for $40. We chose the 6 baskets to share between 3 households. I think we ate a basket while resting in the shade before we made our trek back to our car. Overall it was a good experience. You can't blame them for the heat. You can thank them for all the shade trees and benches. Inside activities and stages. I highly recommend this festival.

I told him what I was going to buy and he directed me over to the store side. I waited in line for 5-10 minutes as two ladies at the counter were helping a customer with their purchases. When the customers left so did the ladies who were working the counter. They both looked at me and didn't ask if I needed help or assistance. They just left without a word. I thought that was rude as hell. I only hope their wine that I purchased won't be as bad as the lack of customer service I didn't receive from either of those ladies. The man that greeted me had to come over from the restaurant side to help me as he worn himself how they ladies just left me so rudely. J told him that I knew nothing about wine and I needed advice on what to choose so I asked him what were the best options and he chose for me and I went with those choices. The inside was cute and chill with soft music playing. But thank God I don't ever want to come back here again not even to purchase a thing from this establishment. I give them 0 stars but unfortunately there has to be 1 star. I give if to the gentleman who ended up helping me. Shame on you ladies for your rudeness and lack of customer service.
