This was our third year going. We love it. It truly is massive and it has multiple bridges,…read morelookouts, a black light maze and letters and gems to collect along the way. The owner, Mike, designs and installs the field himself with his family and is often the one out in the maze available to give guidance or encouragement (or a reminder of how to take the emergency exits to the bathroom!) Tips: - pay attention to the hours. Entry isn't available all afternoon. - you will be hiking. It's on a hill in the sun. It always takes us at least three hours if you do the full maze and you'll be warm! Wear good shoes, cool clothes and sunscreen. - you can do the hour long scenic maze if you want to see all the things without having to figure out the maze and risk spending an hour going in circles ‍ - you cannot figure out this maze by going all right or all left. The design changes every year and it's impressively large with so many routes. Things to know: - maze is most difficult in August before the corn starts drying. Serious mazers go in August and September. October the corn is more see-through and there are lots of foliage tourists. - the hillbilly golf after the maze is a lot of fun. So silly

Love it here. Free…read morecompletely free - no admission fee, no parking fee. Very friendly people. Small business vibes. Follow your maps and once you cross the bridge they have tons of signs to direct you, hard to get lost. Trust they're hours, we showed up in the pouring rain and they're still open 9am-5pm weekdays. As soon as you walk in you'll get free samples. We sampled 5 cheeses and 2 grades of maple syrup - it sells itself. One cheese is made with unpasteurized milk - others include sharp cheddar, sage, smoked. Convinced me to try traveling home with cheese for the first time. Tons of products available for sell including from other farms as well. I recommend picking up some of the Red Kite Candy caramels they have there. If you liked it as much as me their factory is about a 30 min drive away. Other activities include petting animals (not in winter), walking trail, and self guided tour of their maple house. Wasn't able to do the trail in the rain but I would estimate you can do all of this in 2 hours. Not at all like Billings Farm if you're concerned about going to both or only have time for one. Billings has an admission fee, no samples of milk or cheese though the make both. More of a museum but they do have up close interactions with their cows (even in winter) for the kids, butter churning, candle dipping. Recommend Billing for taking kids on homesteading field trip, Sugarbush a quick stop for foodie/charcuterie person IMPORTANT: They do NOT sell sugarbush products at any of the stores in Woodstock so don't plan to buy more later and have regrets like us - we looked in every store and couldn't find it. Not sure about Quechee though. Products can also be ordered online and shipped

Weather got a little hariy getting there with the slushy roads, but we made it! It's pretty remote location with no street lights, so if driving in the dark look for the signs to get there and trust your GPS. There's a large parking lot across from the entrance to the little store/shop. The shop is actually the owners old family home I belive. We arrived pretty much at closing time, but we were still welcomed warmly. We got a cheese & maple syrup tasting which was yum and informative, and the staff member that did it was really nice, I forgot her name, but see photo below. One of the cheeses has won a cheese competition, very cool. We also got to meet the owner, but she was busy getting Christmas orders together. I perused all of the cheeses I wanted and settled on 4. We got to try 2 out of the 4 from the cheese sampling. The nice lady that checked me out even gave me some nice to-go samples as well. The smoked cheese was my fav, and the sage. But I enjoyed them all. I was able to easily fly home to TX with them due to the cold weather of the season. After the tasting, we got to peruse the store. They have so much other stuff to buy in additon to cheese and maple, tons of knick-knacks and gifts and merch. We didn't get to explore the farm after since it was pitch black when we left, too bad. Enjoy!

My wife and I visited Chapin Orchard for the first time, and it was such a wonderful experience…read morefrom start to finish! The orchard has that warm, welcoming Vermont charm. Friendly staff, scenic views of the rolling hills, and rows of vibrant apple trees that stretch as far as you can see. We picked both Empire and McIntosh apples, and they were crisp, juicy, and perfectly ripe. After picking, we stopped by the barn and bought some Honey Crisp apples to take home, they were just as amazing. The barn also had a great local feel, with fresh cider, jams, and other Vermont-made goodies available. The highlight of the day had to be the fresh cider doughnuts; warm, soft, and coated in cinnamon sugar paired with cold apple cider. To make it even better, there was a live band playing outside, creating such a fun and festive atmosphere. Families were laughing, kids were playing, and everyone seemed to be enjoying the beautiful fall warm day. This was truly a great fall event and the perfect way to spend a weekend in Vermont. Between the beautiful scenery, great music, and delicious apples, we couldn't have asked for a better first visit. We'll definitely be making this an annual tradition!

When we visited butter churning was at 2pm (kids participate only), cow milking demo at 3:15pm (non-interactive), candle dipping at any time. In the afternoon the horses and sheep were eating so the were far off in the distance. You should be able to pet the cows and see the chickens in their pen at any time though. Exhibits mostly about farm life and homemaking. Gift store includes cheese made on the farm, but no milk. No sampling. Able to do all exhibits in 3-4 hours. Note the farm managers house is currently closed for renovations, garden has died off in the winter, and trails along the river is closed due to hazardous conditions.

The farm wasn't open during our visit but we did get to check out their shop which had a lot of maple syrup, apples, and apple products. My friend bought a pint of their apple cider and when we tried it later that day we were really amazed by how crisp and refreshing it was. I bought a single apple cider donut for us to try and it was really soft and lovely, as well as some New Hampshire Maple Syrup. I learned that maple syrup from New Hampshire and Vermont have very distinct tastes so I'm curious to do a taste test at home!

New year, new review…read more Popped in after a morning of skiing New Year's Day and place was packed for lunch! I didn't mind as I was in no rush. As I waited in line I enjoyed conversations with both the people in front and behind me whom all have never been before. The joy and excitement on their faces as they made their way to order was priceless. As for myself, a small mac to help start the new year strong for total lbs sold (81k in 2024) and a small pulled pork. Wanted to order some other things but my refrigerator is full at home, so another time. If this will be your first time, just be aware of parking could be very busy as there's not much. Both ways before pull out of parking spaces as well. Main road can be a cluster at times. I also recommend getting lots of little things rather than a little of a lot. You can always come back for more!

Not dry at all. All were very flavorful and delicious! Highly recommend visiting ~ I can't wait to be back :)
