I haven't tasted it myself yet, but on a whim I sprinkled a little on one of my cat's favorite toys. He went nuts!! In the past, he has showed mild interest in catnip, so to see him flipping that toy up in the air and chasing it was awesome!! Who knows how old the stuff you buy in the store is. I can only say that that your cat is in for a treat with their fresh, amazing Catnip Tea!!

You won't be able to walk away without a wisp of ambience in their service. Fresh summer squash, green beans, eggplants (absolutely the perfect size), green onions, zucchini (yes, perfect size) and fresh herbs were on my last pickup. I'm looking forward to their "secret" winter squash that was a hit with family, friends and me when I roasted them then made the best soup ever. Next on my wishlist are items from the beyond the cellar door: cherry jam, applesauce and medium salsa. If you time it just right you will arrive when something good is cooking in the kitchen. Taking your order home means you soon will be honored with the "love" of gardening. Enjoy!

Went to Freemont Provisions and had high hopes of some amazing food, but it fell short of anything…read morebut great...it was okay. I ended up getting a spicy chicken sandwich with fries which was marked as a favorite on their menu. The chicken on the sandwich was dry and lacked flavor in my opinion. The fries were not good at all. The atmosphere and location however is great. The restaurant itself is really nice and clean and would be a chill spot for drinks and hanging with friends. They have a pool table, darts, and other games to play which was cool. The service was great and had no issues with the service. If you're a foodie, this probably isn't the spot to go to, but if you're looking for drinks and a good spot, this place is for you.

It was a nice night, so we opted to sit outside. Our server was great, came out with menus, and waters, then took our drink, and food order. I went with the Ahi Tuna taco - which was very generously portioned, full of tuna, avocado, pineapple, and a wasabi mayo. The taco shell was made from a puffed rice - I did not pick this up and eat it like a taco, but instead elected to eat it with a fork. Quite delicious. My husband had the salmon bowl, which came with rice, avocado, and asparagus, which he said was really good. We will absolutely be back when in the area again!

After a quick stop at the farm stand to check in and get our bags weighed, we went down to the stop sign and started picking. Tips for the best strawberries and yes they taste as good as they smell. 1 bring several small bags - the strawberries are so ripe they will squish in big bags 2 wear a hat - you are out in the sun 3 start at the end away from the cars - that area is less picked over. 4 have fun - that is part of the process.

Friends of ours who live Colorado told us this is where their mom gets her chilis. She is an…read moreexcellent cook so I knew this was a no brainer coming for fresh roasted green chili. There is some debate on of Pueblo or Hatch chilis are the best. They specifically mentioned getting the dynamite because it is more spicy or the hottest green chili. I had to try it out. I bought a bushel of the dynamite and had them roast garlic in with it. I made some green pozole and it was very good. If you are passing through or even if it is a little out of the way it is well worth stopping. So there is more work involved, you need to de seed and a little prep to store these but in my opinion it is well worth it. Stop by and check them out.

I've been going to this farm for the last 15 years for my chili. For the past few years I've had…read morenothing but trouble when I try to order eight or more bushels. Today I decided to call before I went so I wouldn't have any trouble & talked to a lady named Terry. I asked her if it was OK for me to go by & pay for the 8 bushels & pick them up later on during that day, she said it would be fine. When I got there an older lady was so upset because I wanted to do this. This isn't the first time that I was treated like I was a huge bother. Last year they did the same thing to me and I just chalked it up to the lady having a bad day, but I will NEVER go there again. Neither will my family. I will never recommend this place to anybody in Denver like I have in the past. We ended up going to a different farm & treated awesome by 2 very kind ladies & even got a discount for buying more than 5 bushels. Dana and Nikki at DiTomaso farm were amazing!!! They will get my friends and family future business from now on. GOOD RIDDANCE disanti farms

We did visit in early fall, so the pickings might be better now. I would love to see some goats roaming around, eating the grass, munching on fallen apples and pears. Will definitely be returning before end of season.

Cute low key apple orchard and pumpkin patch. Very small compared to some fancier pumpkin patches…read morethat I've been too. I saw big boxes full of pumpkins so I think they're bought and put out on the lawn vs being grown on the premise. Also kinda expensive! My pumpkin was big and beautiful but ended up being $12. That being said, admission is free so it's not too bad. There are cute photo opportunities throughout the pumpkin patch area and it's pet friendly so I took some cute pictures of my kitten. The hay ride is fun and takes you to the gift shop which has lots of jams, syrups and a cafe. Sadly they were out of apple cider donuts and didn't have as much pumpkin treats as I would have wanted. Also there is no corn maze :( Overall, it's a fun little orchard and pumpkin patch that's near Colorado Springs. Id recommend going early if you want to try to catch the apple cider donuts!

While some of the items were lacking flavor and seasoning, there are still some delicious items…read morethat would have me come back. I got 4 tacos, an adobada, al pastor, carnitas, and a quesabirria. The Al pastor and carnitas were not super flavorful and fell flat. The carnitas were also very wet. Luckily there is a good salsa bar they have here and improves the tacos a lot. The adobada was the most flavorful of the regular street tacos and would order again. The highlight was definitely the quesabirria taco. There was so much cheese on there it really makes it juicy and salty. Not the best tacos I've had in town but not a totally disappointment.

That said, I didn't think they were worth 16 bucks apiece. Also, why was I charged 16 bucks apiece when the board said they were something like $13.55? For that price I expect chips and salsa with my meal! Maybe a beverage included. It wasn't bad, but I likely won't be back for the price.

I get to go here after I eat an Owl Burger on every trip. My sweet tooth is happily satisfied right after my carnivorous cravings are slayed. It's along the same price point as most candy shops which is to say more expensive than regular candy bars in a gas station, but I willingly pay for it so I can experience the nostalgia and the selection.
