I stopped by Colbie's Cones at Sunnycrest Farm and ordered a kiddie Coffee Kahlúa Brownie with…read morejimmies. The flavor was delicious, and the staff was very friendly and welcoming. However, I was honestly surprised by how small the serving was. The kiddie size was essentially one unpacked scoop and cost $6.40, which felt expensive for the portion. If you're looking for better value, I'd recommend driving a few miles to Lix Ice Cream in Litchfield. Their kiddie size is closer to what many places would call a small, and the portions are much more generous for the price. Sunnycrest has a beautiful farm setting and great flavors, so it's still a nice place to visit, but I think the portion sizes could be a bit more generous for what you're paying.

Despite having been back in the granite state for over 3 years now, I hadn't exactly gotten around…read moreto visiting an actual "farm-to-fork" local grocery store until now. Primarily due to the fact that I normally pick up fresh eggs from my bestie in Derry, I ended up searching for a contingency plan in the event she was already sold out on her end. Such was the case today. First, a caveat: if you're happening by this store southbound, the parking lot entrance will be the second turn on the right just past the store itself. It can be a little confusing due to the second logo sign on the side of the warehouse building which, to newcomers, may appear to be an entrance point. I have no idea if and what they keep back there (probably just extended storage), but from what I could ascertain, the main store is the smaller building in the center of it all. Naturally, the interior is (like I said) small and pretty unassuming, if I'm being entirely accurate. What you see is what you get and this is a good thing. Because everything looked pretty fresh and tasty to me. I possess neither the space nor memory to recall every last item they have here. But in addition to extra large fresh eggs, they also feature baked goods (to include my all time favorite - FUDGE!!) and real maple syrup. That's right! None of that synthetic, overly sugary crap for us true New Englanders. This, and other grocery stores like it, are the places we go when we want true, authentic maple syrup. So anyways, I was here for the eggs. Now, I may be writing this review prematurely since I haven't exactly tasted the eggs yet. But from what I can tell, this place is legit. They even have Apple and Google pay, which actually surprised me. The Yelp page didn't list this as a viable option at the time of writing this review. I will certainly be submitting an update recommendation to the powers that be. The staff were quite friendly and approachable. Didn't really stay long to chat or anything though. Those were just my first impressions. The location is tucked away, but easy to get to. It also appears they have quite the local following. So, I definitely will return. At some point, I'd really like to get my hands on that peanut butter fudge and genuine maple syrup. Can't really recommend this place any harder for picking up fresh produce and treats. Sunnycrest Farms is worthy of 5 extra large farm fresh eggs served any style out of 5.

There's a general store that has all sorts of delicious apple based and other products. There's a petting zoo. And perhaps best of all there's a kiosk at which you can buy delicious apple cider donuts that are homemade on the premises. They cannot be beat. There are also plenty of other types of fruit that you can pick at this orchard besides apples. For example, one can pick peaches, blueberries, and pears. We have been coming here for several years and haven't gotten around to partaking in this activity of picking other fruits than apples. There is also a big tent we can get homemade hard cider and listen to music from live musicians. There are hay rides and there's also a giant maze which your kids might love. Perhaps you will love it too. We highly recommend Honey Pot Orchards for a fun family day!

Be ready for larger lines than you've ever witnessed. That's the bad part. We went at 2 PM on a Saturday, so that's on us. Maybe it's more tolerable getting there at opening? We wouldn't go back based on the lines, I am not a patient person and I'd rather eat nails than wait 1 hour in line for anything, but it shows they are doing something right over here.

We did it all--apple and peach picking, and we even got to cut our own beautiful bouquet of fresh flowers. The Sandwich Shop and Farm Store: We stopped by the sandwich shop for lunch and the food was incredible. We opted for the Apple Turkey Sandwich and it was easily a 10/10--the perfect seasonal bite. The farm market itself is a dream and has absolutely everything you could want. We stocked up on warm cider donuts (absolute heaven) Local honey and fresh apple cider, Homemade jams & farm pies. The Experience: The orchards are beautiful, clean, and loaded with perfect fruit. Ending the afternoon in the flower fields cutting our own colorful blooms was the perfect finishing touch. Friendly staff, amazing atmosphere, and delicious treats. 5 stars all the way!

They had a tractor that took you up the hill to some newly opened patches, but the line was long. We opted for the patches within close walking distance that still had a lot of strawberries. There's plenty of things to do for both adults and children. A fun obstacle course, giant sandbox, tire swings, and chicken feeding for kids. Hard cider, live music, a couple food carts, a mini craft pop-up and farm market/bakery for adults. There was also a strawberry shortcake and fresh cider donut stand. The pulled pork from the PitchFork food cart was plentiful and affordable. Lots of seating with umbrellas and it never felt super crowded. Parking across the street was easy. Only comment is wayfinding signage for the U-pick could be improved. More festivals like pollinator and cherry will be in the coming weeks, and we'd definitely return. We went to the beach afterwards (~15 mins) to take full advantage of the beautiful day.

I have been coming here for a few months. Mr Wayne, the owner, is super friendly and helpful. He works diligently to maintain the farm and makes good recommendations. Paradise farm carries a large variety of products including grass-fed beef, pasture-raised pork, free-range chicken and duck. They also have pastured chicken, duck and turkey eggs. The animals here are sustainably and humanely raised. They carry raw Nubian goat milk. Goat milk is closest to breastmilk for it contains exclusively A2 protein. The type of milk that most people drink comes from holstein cows which produce A1 milk. A1 protein is not ideal for human consumption. On the other hand, goat milk is an A2 milk just like human milk. You can pick your own berries, peaches and apples here seasonally. The farm is open year around by appointment. Make sure you give Mr Wayne a call at (603) 345-0860 before coming in.
