We absolutely LOVE Stepping Stone! It is our family's favorite place to go…read more We get a season pass every year so the kids can play through the summer and fall (and as a bonus, it includes admission to special events and festivals). The playground is a huge hit--there's a large slide structure, jumping pillows, and plenty of smaller play options for toddlers. My favorite newer addition has been the fall corn maze--such a fun experience! After playing, the kids love grabbing a treat or ice cream in the market. In the market, I usually stock up on cider, preserves, and fresh fruit--and I always grab a bottle of Wise Bird Cider (so good). They also offer baking mixes, vegetables, meats, and more. You'll find seasonal favorites like strawberries, apples, and pumpkins throughout the year, and everything is consistently fresh and delicious. We make it a tradition to buy strawberries in May, grab peaches during the summer, and pick apples in early fall. Stepping Stone also serves as a wedding and private events venue, and I often see school field trips there as well. The owners and staff are absolute sweethearts, and it's clear they genuinely care about what they do. They're wonderful community partners, and it really shows.

I of course went to pick some strawberries and there was a great selection as they had just opened for the season. They also had plenty of berries in their store you could just walk in and buy some along with some vegetables, fresh baked goods, jams and pickles, frozen meats and local dairy products. It was a nice way little afternoon trip.

We went on a scenic drive and delightfully by accident found Reed Valley Orchard! The orchard was…read morebeautiful and the shop was small but nice. We purchased peaches, pears, and delicious apples. The prices were reasonable in my opinion. The apples and pears were in a small bag with a handle priced at $7 per bag. There were probably 18 to 25 items per bag. I do not remember the price of the peaches but they were reasonable. The orchard was just past Centerville Kentucky. You crossed a small bridge over a creek to go to the orchard. They had a cider operation that was not in operation yet. This was a great day driving in the country with a beautiful butterfly field orchard as a welcome surprise!

They had things ready for all ages. It was nice that they had a separate area for egg hunting and they requested that the children take up to 12 eggs each. They also had a face painting station, an area to feed animals, craft site, and more. My little one also loved the wagon ride! The large wagon took people on a tour of the farm. I had no idea how big it was and how many things they produced. We definitely intend to return in order to pick strawberries and apples. It was great, inexpensive fun for us and I can see this being a family tradition.

We recently visited Bi Water Farm & Greenhouse (in October) to pick up some pumpkins. It's a really…read morecute farm! Imagine your typical pumpkin patch experience, so it's not really original, but it's really fun if you enjoy these season spots! The gift shop was clean and well stocked, and they offer pick-your-own pumpkins from the patch, or plenty of pre-picked options for you to grab and go. And they're really reasonably priced! If you're in the Georgetown area and looking for a fun fall activity, I definitely recommend Bi Water Farm & Greenhouse!

We enjoyed a hayride, took pics in the pumpkin patch and walked through the maze. There's a little bit of everything for everyone for the price. The bunnies and Billy goats were so cute they have a few farm animals to see and feed. They also have a small market inside where you can purchase some cider or produce to take home. I had a blast, took me back to when we would go on field trips.

Located at 1447 Woodlawn Rd in Shelbyville Kentucky is Blues End Farm. This is a family owned…read morefarm that specializes in U-pick blueberries, maple syrup and pasteurized eggs. I will start with the location, i'm from eastern Kentucky so going out in the country on a small narrow road is nothing for me. For some it might be like am I going into BFE? Don't be scared with the narrow road it's in excellent shape...just take your time. The location is beautiful. Once you pull up to the farm, you will see a sign that says pick to the right and you can park in the pasture right before you get to the blueberry bushes that are knitted off. There was four different types of blueberries when I visited. The girl was very nice showing me where to go to pick. I was looking for blueberries that would make a good jam and also ones that I could freeze for blueberry lemon scones. I did appreciate that they only sell so many tickets per day so you can really take your time and enjoy the blueberry picking. This is the first time that I have been blueberry picking, and it's definitely more delicate than a strawberry or blackberry. it was the perfect day to be one with nature, picking such a delicate, beautiful fruit. They do have buckets to pick blueberries if you don't have one of your own. After you pick your blueberries, you can drive down to the main house where they will weigh your berries you can pay with cash, Venmo, or Apple Pay. Blues End Farm also had different varieties of maple syrup and jelly that day. I'm so fortunate to have this gem close to home. You can go online and purchase your pick tickets. Please give them a visit and support your local farmer. Overall it was a Berry Good Time!!!!

We hadn't planned to go, but we saw it while driving by and randomly decided to stop, and I'm so glad we did! The market was small during our visit (compared to the Louisville markets I'm used to), but the booths that were set up could cover all of your Saturday morning farmer's market needs. There were flowers, fruits, vegetables, breads, jams, herbs & spices, and more. Plus, my sister-in-law said she's visited before, and it's usually larger, so I'm sure during the summer months you could visit this market and pick up anything you may need. And all of the vendors were extremely friendly! If you're in the Georgetown area and have a chance to stop at this market I definitely recommend it!
