The event included food trucks and a variety of vendors. My friend and I grabbed some BBQ from S&J Catering and it was delicious. We also grabbed donuts from Klassic Donuts and Glazed & Infuzed as well, which were very tasty. As we walked through the different shops, I absolutely loved all the fresh local, produce that was available. One of the shops offered a variety of jarred items and sauces so I purchased Crab Salsa and Spicy Pickled Okra. Both were very good and I definitely need to go back and get more! I absolute love supporting local businesses and I will definitely be returning very soon! Everyone was very nice and I highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

There's a seafood market, a butcher shop, a dessert shop, ice cream shop, and a restaurant. The prices are pretty reasonable and the people who work there are pretty friendly. There's plenty of parking. They have carnivals, food trucks, and different events. Check their FB page or website for dates of special events. It's a fun place to go and kill time when you just need something to do. I enjoyed my visit!! Check them out!!

To Whom It May Concern,…read more I am writing to formally bring to your attention an incident that occurred during my visit to your market on June 28, 2026. My husband and I enjoy supporting small, local markets and farms; especially those that remind us of home and our military roots, so it is extremely disappointing to share that our experience today left us feeling unwelcome and disrespected. While selecting ears of corn, I picked up several that were already opened and set aside. I examined them only to understand why they had been separated. From across the aisle, an employee called out, "Ma'am, you can't open our corn here." I responded politely that I understood. She then approached me and asked, "Did you open all of these?" Her tone was accusatory, and the question itself was inappropriate. I clarified that the ears were already open when I picked them up. Instead of accepting my explanation, she continued lecturing me--repeating the same point multiple times despite my acknowledgment. She also stated that your corn is "fresh, just picked," which was factually incorrect given that the ears I was holding were ice cold. "Fresh, just picked" corn would be warm to the touch, as though it went directly from farm to stand. I mentioned that the opened ears had earworm. She replied that "there is nothing wrong with corn that has a worm; you just cut it off," and continued repeating the same reprimand I had already acknowledged multiple times. Despite my calm responses, the employee continued pressing the issue to the point that my husband stepped in, saying, "Okay, that is enough." The employee then told us, "Maybe you should go to Walmart to buy your corn." This comment was inappropriate, unprofessional, and entirely unnecessary. At that point, we decided to purchase the four ears already in our bag, inform the cashier of our experience, and leave; spending only $5.00 versus our normal $60-$80 we spend each time we visit. Unfortunately, this interaction has led us to decide not to return to your market, which is genuinely disappointing. We value local businesses and the sense of community they provide, but the treatment we received did not reflect the welcoming environment we expected--or the positive experiences we have had over the past six years as regular customers. We drive from Yorktown specifically to buy your fruits and vegetables, but we will not drive to Sandbridge to be chastised and publicly ridiculed for something I did not do, and even if I had, I acknowledged your policy immediately upon being told. I am sharing this feedback in hopes that it will be used constructively. Customer service matters, and interactions like this can significantly impact how patrons perceive and support a business. I trust you will address this issue to ensure future customers are treated with respect and professionalism.

Offerings include art, produce, seafood, locally made food and packaged items (jam, popcorn, cheese), bread/pastries, food trucks, etc. Many of the vendors are also staples at other VA Beach farmers markets. -- TLC & Amenities -- The church graciously offers its parking lot as space for parking and the market, volunteers to direct traffic and help with setup/cleanup, its picnic table filled pavilion for KGFM guests to eat at, the restroom in its fellowship hall, and the playground out back of the church. All of these small courtesies add up to a wonderful family-friendly environment and event. -- Hours -- KGFM runs on the 1st & 3rd Thursday of each month from May through September from 4-7pm. -- Takeaways -- Local produce, local artists, great prices on seafood, and more offered in a well-spaced outdoor market allows for social distancing. With the inclusion of food trucks you can make a family dinner out of your shopping trip. Food truck prices are on par with others, which doesn't make for the most affordable dinner, but the offerings are excellent. KGFM is great option for families who want to frequently support local vendors!

Spending over $50 for a bag of apples and a bucket of grapes is so steep. I understand that it is expensive to have farms like this but if you want people to pay those prices I would definitely consider updating your location. Add actual bathrooms, more things for kids to do and some more animals for a small petting zoo. It was also not very clear on where to go to start picking apples/grapes. Wish they had it more clearly labeled.

I visited Cullipher Farm on a Saturday morning for their popular pumpkin and sunflower picking, and…read moreit absolutely exceeded our expectations! This place truly has it all when it comes to fall family fun. First off, the Pick-Your-Own experience was fantastic. We loved roaming through the lush pumpkin patch to find the perfect pumpkins and had a great time picking vibrant sunflowers right from the field (they even provide shears so you can cut your own). The apple orchard also looked tempting! There was a constant flow of families filling their bags with fresh apples. The farm activities offer something for everyone. We explored the corn maze, which was both challenging and fun. The sunflower fields were in full bloom and made for wonderful photo ops. The wagon rides added a classic, charming touch to the whole experience and are a big hit with kids. The amenities and extras are a huge plus. The on-site market is filled with fresh, local fruits, vegetables, meats, and breads. We treated ourselves to apple cider donuts (which I highly recommend. soft, warm, and perfectly spiced!) and grabbed coffee from the food truck to fuel our morning. There was also an ice cream stand and an impressive playground that kept the kids entertained while we relaxed for a bit. Cullipher Farm nails the fall farm experience. Whether you're there for pumpkin picking, sunflower fields, or just some good old-fashioned family fun, there's something for everyone. The staff was friendly, everything was well-organized, and despite the weekend crowds, the atmosphere was lively but not overwhelming. We left with pumpkins, fresh-cut sunflowers, and big smiles all around.

What I am most keen on are the fresh eggs. Comparing these eggs to factory farm eggs that have probably been sitting in a warehouse for six months is like comparing a Ferrari to a Ford Pinto. There simply is no comparison. They will cost you a bit more than what you pay at Food Lion but they are worth every penny. You can even pet the chickens who likely laid your eggs just that morning. During the summer months, the Farm also has a dinner program where they invite in local chefs (such as Rodney from Terrapin or Ross from Hashi) to not only teach a group of ten or so guests how to cook certain items but to also cook and enjoy a communal meal. My wife and I attended a couple of them last year and they were the most memorable dining experiences of the year. This little farm is a real gem.
