    we had such a great time at simmons farm! it's the perfect spot for a fall day with little ones,…read morethere's so much to do between the hayride, slides, flowe picking, apple picking, corn maze, pumpkin picking, and even the corn bus (my toddler's favorite!). the whole place feels warm and family-oriented, and the apple cider slushies + fried oreos were so good. lots of food vendors to choose from, we love the roaming bean! the only thing i'd note is that the prices felt a bit high, especially since the hayride ticket doesn't include a pumpkin, with a pumpkin is +5. just something to keep in mind if you're going with a group or family. still, totally worth the trip for the experience and the memories.

    Simmons Market is a store that is located on the grounds of Simmons Farm. It sells produce such as…read morecorn, potatoes, peppers, onions, cauliflower, apples, and grapes. Of course, these foods vary based on the season of year. This store also sells some packaged foods such as desserts and honeys. I entered the store and walked around a little, but I did not buy anything, because I planned to visit their other store that is located a few miles away. The products, though, did look temptingly delicious. I greatly appreciated that an employee approached me and asked me if I needed assistance. I asked her where the petting zoo was located, and she kindly gave me clear directions.

    Brown's Orchard is a family business that opened in 1933 and grows dozens of apple varieties…read more They grow well-known varieties (e.g., Fuji, Gala, Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, McIntosh, and Red Delicious) as well as lesser-known varieties (e.g., Crispin/Mutsu, Grimes Golden, Ashmead's Kernel, Calville Blanc, Esopus Spitzenburg, Summer Rambo, and Geneva Crab). They also make applesauce, apple-cider juice, apple-cider vinegar, apple jam and jelly, apple butter, etcetera. Customers may purchase these products in person at the farm during their operating hours. Sometimes, they sell their products elsewhere such as Market Wagon. So far, I have bought one apple-cider juice and six bags of apples--Evercrisp, Fuji, Stayman, Golden Delicious, Crimson Crisp, and Snapdragon--and I thought that they tasted very good. I plan to try more of their apples and other products in the future.

    I recently heard about Brown's Orchard and decided to go see it for myself. Brown's orchard…read morespecializes in all different types of apples and autumn is their peak business season. It is primarily a store in which you can select apples and apple products for sale. On two chalkboards you can see the different types of apples that they carry and whether they are in season or out of season. You can get 3 different sizes-5 lb,10lb or half bushel. Pricing is based on the type of apple you wish to purchase. Whether you are purchasing for baking, or simply eating Brown's orchard has a great variety of apples to try. Want something different than what you'd find in the grocery store? Try a Nittany which is State College's unique apple that is a cross between golden delicious and york imperial. Course the big seller is the honeycrisp which they store in the back. I arrived when almost no one was there and within minutes this place was packed. There is no numbering system as to when your turn is but people were pleasant enough to wait accordingly. When it was my turn the man helped find a good selection of 3-4 different apples to purchase for snacking. He will bag the quantity your desire of each particular apple. I saw that they had a sign indicating you can request a sample. That sample happens to be a whole apple of your choice. I chose a Jonagold and it was so good!! These apples are a good size and not the puny ones you'd see in the grocery stores. In addition to apples, the sell 3 different types of applesauce, apple cider vinegar, apple butter, and even apple pie. Don't forget to take home a half gallon of their cider as well. I already had a cup and must admit it was one of the best ciders I had in a while. They also sell honey here. The store is built inside a large garage-apple buckets are everywhere and you can see what is selling fast. Cash and cards are accepted here. Primarily open during the fall they have weekend winter hours. Free parking is available on the property. Located about 10 miles west of I 79 heading past Cecil, it is a pleasant drive.

    Exceptional service. I am grateful for this business and the friendly, thoughtful folks that run…read moreit. I had to remotely select and order a sympathy gift for someone in their local area, and have limited knowledge of houseplants, their meaning, etc. They walked through several expert recommendations with me from prayer plants to prosperity plants, helped me select a pot fitting the occasion and recipient's aesthetic. They also proactively offered to plant it for me, and deliver it to their door directly vs shipping or using a service. They asked if I had a letter to send them include, that they could design into a card to include with the order. They really went above and beyond and took any and all stress out of the process, while my mind was a million other places given the situation. Thank you Ruby Flora, for making this process so much easier on me and for delivering a quality sympathy gift on very short notice. It's clear you really care about your customers, in addition to being the area experts on houseplants.

    So excited to have discovered this plant shop in the area!…read more Fun highlights to note: - You can take your plants in there and they can transfer them to a bigger pot for you! - They host fun events in their back room. They have an upcoming one for kids where they can plant their own plant in a fun themed planter. Can't wait to bring the boys back for that! - Huge selection of plants to choose from. You can tell the owners really care about the quality of their product! Can't wait to come back!

    My review is not a good one. I took my Honda lawnmower there in May of 23 to be repaired it was a…read morebracket that basically raises/ lowers the height. Got it back and it ran like crap but it ran for a month or two until it wouldn't run at all so I bought a new one thinking I'll get the Honda fixed again and use it as a backup well I went back to kulhmans and this time it was the motor/transmission ruined and was going to be over 400.00 I said how the hell does that happen he said the bracket bushing came loose and destroyed the motor not realizing that they had fixed the damn thing the year or so previously. When I brought that fact up they just kinda stuttered, blamed it on wear and tear which is bullshit and they know it. So when I went to pick it up there was no diagnostic charge at least but they know and I know it's because it was their fault in the first damn place so bottom line is they did shit work which led to the destruction of my 900.00 Honda lawnmower and didn't make it right !! My review I know they have a decent reputation but I don't know how I would not trust them to fix my toaster let alone an expensive piece of equipment.. Nope. Kulhmans sucks in my opinion.. They know what they did was dirty.

    Wish there was a no star rating. I was busy with work. I have a Lawn Boy 10800 Commercial Push…read moremower. Its been in storage for 10 years. Dropped it off here. They said it's too old 1994 and parts aren't available, (either a lie or their not too good with google) they were willing to scrap it for me!! Invoice says "Tried to clean the carburetor" Tried??? Are you serious? $53.50. This machine has very low hours and it shows. I was so pissed I didn't even say a word when I picked it up. Got home. The carb wasn't even removed, it still had all the built up grime, they only dropped the bowl. I removed and disassembled the carb, used one can of carb cleaner and it started first pull. Mower runs great. Stay away from this non mechanical store. Change your name to Lawnmower Sales
