The place is super cute and the people are nice. Only down side is there is no where to sit. So if you are waiting for a hay ride and you sit on hay they will get on to you (because it could collapse). Only way to sit is in your car or on the hay ride which is $6. The apple cider is $3 for a small cup of it. It is good but not worth the price per ounce. I got pumpkin butter for $10 and I am excited to try it.

It's a family run, low key, beautiful farm with picnic tables with toys set up for littles to play with, there's a beautiful farmhouse store with local products and they have their own fresh farm grown produce and treats for sale too. The pumpkins are not overly expensive and I consider hem to reasonably priced AND you're shopping local! I wish I had gotten the sweet man who drives the tractors name because he was my favorite part. A little hayride around their beautiful land with some life lessons thrown in for everyone to appreciate. And for all of us basic girls there are PLENTY of beautiful photo ops! Oh and 2 words Muscadine Slushies!

We had a blast with our neighbors on Sunday (even in the afternoon heat). My toddler had so much fun picking her own apples and riding the tractor and little cow train. This orchard is huge and the store was filled with all sorts of jams, jellies, salsas, apples, pastries and the line to the cafe was almost out the door (for the fried pies, I presume). I did get some salsa and came home with more than a dozen fresh picked apples of a few different varieties. You are able to snap a picture of the map upon getting your tickets so you can decide which apple varieties you want to pick. Absolutely stunning views from the orchard fields and will definitely come back again next year!

We know these places make most of their money off concessions so we brought a big group and did pretzels (somehow soggy on bottom and rock hard on top) with cheese, 2 funnel cakes (actually good), 2 hot dogs, and tried to order a baked potato (they didn't have despite being on menu) and corn (didn't have but on menu and in a corn maze...my brain broke on that one). Then we got sweet tea which wasn't sweet and got very little ice on a hot day. We also got popsicles, boiled peanuts (amazing!!!), ice cream and lemonade and waters. Grounds were perfect, maze was a blast and the rodeo was adorable. Just wish the concessions could be tightened up a bit. Staff was fantastic though. We will come back every year.

First of the season offered some of my favorites, September Wonder and Crispins. It was close to closing time, so no fresh baked goods remaining. However, cider donuts were in the fridge, looking like they were made at a local bakery. $9 for a dozen which is less expensive than most places. Very friendly and clean place.

The strawberries are very juicy and ripe! You MUST go when it opens! We got there at 10am when it opens and there was already a line forming so it is even safe to say come earlier and stand in line. Once the ripe ones are picked, they close. Definitely call ahead or follow them on social media for updates on that! They do not let you eat strawberries on the farm...not sure why it's a COVID/CDC thing so that is tough with a 1 year old who is obsessed with strawberries. I've heard other farms allow people to eat as they pick so I'm not sure what that's about.

And they deserve no less than 5 stars for the experience, from my first correspondence with Holly to arrange the tour, to arriving. The directions and the signage were momentarily confusing, but the site indicates to drive towards the right behind the barn on the gravel road. Pulling in you can't help but "awww" over the chickens, ducks, dogs and alpacas dotting the property. Once all of the other guests had arrived, the tour began and it was both fun and informational, about the farm, alpacas, and the artwork made from their fibers. Even my little one was less than her squirmy fidgety self and listened. Feeding the alpacas was really the most fun part as we were told that they don't particularly like being petted on their heads (only a minor bummer as we'd gleefully hoped that we'd get a few gentle pats in.) The tour finished up in the upstairs art studio where hand-made gifts were available, or where one could make a donation, as the tour is free. For how much fun it was, I wouldn't have hesitated to have been required to pay for it anyways. It was a very fun and memorable morning meeting some gentle and fluffy alpacas up close, and I would strongly suggest that anybody making a weekend trip to this area to plan ahead to also visit Lasso the Moon.

Not only did they have a variety of sizes but the largest variety of pumpkin types I think I've ever seen in one location! White, green, bumpy, yellow all beautiful, all pumpkin. In addition to all of the festive pumpkins they also had gourds, Indian corn, mum's, and all kinds of Halloween/ fall decorations. The staff were friendly and helpful and the prices were GREAT! I can't believe how low priced the pumpkins were especially compared to what we paid in Florida! We took home 4 beautiful pumpkins and a decorative gourd all for $14!! I highly recommend Weaver's and I can't wait to see what they do for Christmas! This will now be a go to place for us!
