I was craving some fall vibe outside of the city. We stopped by this farm while looking for some…read morecozy fall vibes on Long Island, and it definitely had that seasonal charm. Food & Drinks: 4/5 I was mostly here for the food, so I went straight for the apple cider and donuts. The cider (12oz) was around $1.50 and tasted classic--not too sweet and warm--but the donut situation was a little disappointing. It was dry and not warm at all. They had pre-packaged ones with extra sugar on top, and I personally just wanted a simple, fresh one. We also grabbed a pumpkin loaf, and in total spent $18 for a pumpkin loaf, three donuts, and two ciders, which isn't terrible. Ambiance: 5/5 It's clearly a spot for gardeners and families--lots of pumpkins, plants, and kids running around. If you're not here to garden or bring kids, you might run out of things to do pretty quickly. Still, the setting is lovely for a short stop, especially if you're already in the area. Service: 3/5 Lines for drinks were a bit long, and the setup felt slightly unorganized, but the staff was polite and trying their best with the crowd. In all in all, a nice little fall stop if you're nearby or just want a quick cider-and-donut moment, but not a place I'd go far out of the way for--unless you're gardening or pumpkin-picking with family.

The new owners have kept up the same high-level of quality, huge selection, upscale vibe, gift shops, indoor plants, outdoor plants, friendly, helpful, employees, and beautiful, peaceful atmosphere. They're no more expensive, than any other plant nursery unless you're comparing them to Home Depot and Lowe's and there's really no comparison. I found the employees to be very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. There is a huge selection of garden plants, pots, statuary etc. Multiple gift shops inside. They have a rewards program so I would sign up for it if you shop there. There are chickens, roosters, and I think it was baby goats, so there's fun things for the kids to do too. It's extremely clean and very well organized. The plants look really healthy. I was very impressed.

There was everything you could imagine. From flowers and plants, to trees and vegetable plants. There was also a selection of sculpture, lawn items and even works of art. Where could I being. It was all here. And it was worth the time I took to walk around and see what I needed today, and what I need to come back for to have in my home. I walked around and saw more than I expected. The best was that when I first walked in one of the Garden Experts walked over and asked me what I might be looking for. He made recommendations and said he was always available if I had a question. As for the prices of the items, some were expensive, but most were the right price for what you were selecting. It was ideal. I even saw a sculpture I had never seen before. I like it and will consider it for a following day. It was a good idea to have when I decide where to place it. The Garden Center is a good place to visit to see, learn, consider and make a decision for now and for anytime you need to think about something new. Enjoy....
