Do not trust this venue. In April I booked a corporate box for Rock Rewind Fest being held in July. A representative from the company handling event bookings here, showed me the exact box in person and promised it would be held for me. Then came two and a half months of being ignored -- unreturned texts, unreturned calls, a voicemail box too full to even leave a message. When I finally got an answer, I learned my box had been given away to someone else, with zero warning. I sent the farm a detailed written complaint directly to their own email addresses, specifically asking for a written response. Silence, until I escalated hard enough to force a reply. When a response finally came, it was from the same person who had been stringing me along for two months. I was offered a different box, much further from the stage at a higher rate. When I finally said forget it, I did get an email back that was NOT an apology, but rather corporate speak regretting that my "expectations" weren't met by the "team." The team being the one guy who hoped I would just go away and not press the issue. I was also told my emails had been passed along to the owner. Nothing. No response at all from the person who actually owns this business. I was genuinely excited to see this artist. This business took what could have been an amazing experience and ruined my excitement and left me disappointed. They tried my patience and didn't care about me as a customer. read more

We heard about this Buffalo Bills bar and tried to check it out. It looks like a great facilty and crowd. If you are going their, get there early. We got there 45 minutes before kickoff and not a seat to be found.GO BILLS!! read more

Cute experience for pumpkin picking. It was a small fee to enter the pumpkin patch (either 5 or 10 dollars, can't remember) but if you show up in costume, you get in for free. Good selection of pumpkins. Hay ride to the patch is included with your purchase. Pumpkins are bought separately. Corn maze, bouncey jumps for kids, etc all included in the experience. I would recommend. read more

It's a very small retail space but they have good products. Nothing big or special but a nice local spot to visit.

It is a great place to watch a Bills game with other Bills fans! The atmosphere is very fun.

We went here for the strawberry and wine festival. There is parking in a field but it is a little chaotic. People are walking in the road and they have cars going in and out on the same road vs. a loop to the exit. TIckets on the day of were $30 per person. In my opinion, it was not worth it. Although we did have a good time. There were a lot of vendors selling various things. There was supposed to be live music but for the 90 min or so that we were there we did not see or hear anyone on the stage. The have tents set up around the perimeter offering wine, cider and bourbon tastings. It was nice to get to sample all the various drinks but the samples were very small and I never really found one that I liked. We did like the sample from the Slippery Fox distillery. I am glad we went but i doubt we will go to the same event next year. read more

Wondered why the parking lot was empty on a Saturday @ 12:30 p.m. when we pulled in. Now we know. Much of the produce was past its prime. It should have been removed from sale. The cart I picked was caked with mud on the bottom inside and I had to sort through a stack of shopping baskets to find one that was clean enough to use. Produce, flowers and general merchandise are more expensive than at similar markets in Hanover County. Upon cleaning a plastic clamshell of strawberries at home, more than 1/2 of them were rotten and the proprietors had to know this. They must have been in the cooler box for more than a week. Two employees sat and chatted when they could have been culling the produce of outdated stock. Decided to pass on the "direct from our farm" frozen meats because the whole atmosphere of the place was "iffy" when it came to cleanliness and quality control. However, if you want a 5' tall cement ape for your front lawn, this is the place for you. (But it's probably 50% more than you could find it elsewhere.) read more

My family and I went here a couple days ago for one of their weekend fall festivities. Such a great place with lots of different things to do for my little ones (toddlers). They had jump houses/slides, lots of farm animals, corn box, face painting and then there food trucks and a live band. It was only $8 for people over age 3 without getting a pumpkin and that's pretty cheap compared to a lot of other places. Lots of space with plenty of chairs and tables setup. Definitely recommend to go there next fall! read more

Went to the watermelon festival and after a ridiculous $20 per person entry fee.... They pushed Alcohol and made us dump out our water. This was the beginning of our last visit to this facility. All the vendor prices were insanely expensive with tiny portions. The advertising failed to mention the bouncy houses and children's water attractions, which for an additional $20 per child or adult were by far the best part of this event. Yes that is $40 per person to use the children's area and then the price of food and drink. So after a small lunch the cost of a few hours without buying any alcohol was $250, for 4 people. The number of very pregnant mothers in the kids bouncy house water area was scary as was the lack of supervision of small children by drunk adults set the mood for the day that clearly matched the parking situation Save yourself and pick anything else for a family outing read more

Great place to go and watch some sports. Went when the temperature was still moderate. Fun atmosphere, great beer prices. Food truck available and pet friendly. read more

The only good part of our trip today was the tractor drivers and the man wearing the Justin Tucker jersey. It's ridiculous that the entry fee doesn't cover the kids fun area. Additionally, the folks that were there to watch football got in for free and could enjoy the entire venue, but people who weren't there to watch football had to pay an entry fee. Make that make sense. read more

I recently visited the pumpkin patch with my preschool. The patch did not have any fresh pumpkins; instead, the pumpkins had holes in them, were rotted out, and were overall disappointing due to their condition. One class had to wait forty minutes for the hayride wagon to pick them up from the pumpkin patch because they had yet to be forgotten. The experience was not fun for the children, and dreadful for the adults. read more

We had such a wonderful time at the Maters and Crab feast on Saturday July 20th!! We had a group of 8 and sat at table under the "barn" that has been converted to a nice outdoor bar with a pastural setting all around. The crabs were the best we have had all summer along with the perfectly roasted in the husk corn, bacon lettuce and HANOVER tomatoe sandwiches, bbq, and hot dogs with all the fixin's! Beer trucks self serve mix of domestic and IPA, not to mention that it was all you could eat and drink! Oh and there was live music too! read more

Caved in and decided to go pumpkin picking for our lil man. One of our friends were planning on doing this as well so we got to join them. This was our first pumpkin picking with our little man...and he slept the whole time. It was a wonderful family farm even that we went to and will be coming back once our lil man is up and running. We went on a crummy day because it was raining on and off. There was a lot of food trucks to choose from, but I wasn't that hungry. Plenty of farm animals to pet and check out...again, this make me want to only come here when my little one can actually run around and touch these animals. We went pumpkin picking towards the end of the event because we didn't want to carry the pumpkin around the farm. We got a good decent size to put outside on our porch. A very fun experience that I would recommend to our other friends with kids. read more

Went here for their haunted nightly event, The lines were ridiculous BUT after experiencing it we totally understand why. We had a lot of fun, each different area was perfectly crafted to its theme. we never got a cheap/party city feel through any of the areas, even the actors were very committed to their roles. We felt rushed or let down throughout our time there, We would definitely come back! read more

Came here to go pumpkin picking. Employees force people to ride together on a tractor and yelled at us when we attempted to take the short walk to the patch. We complied and they audibly talked trash about us in front of the other customers. Total trash, these people are the problem. read more

Be very careful where you park!!! Every staff member is hyper aware that you should NOT park at the market if you decide to partake in the pumpkin patch/hayride. Heaven forbid you have a second thought and would rather not load your three-year-old into the car again. I've always enjoyed this place before but felt rather disgusted after my treatment today. read more

They have concerts on Friday nights with great local bands starts at 5:30 -11:00 fun for family wine beer food vendors come on out join fun

We visited here on a field trip with our youngest son to their pumpkin patch. Both my husband and I went (I even took a day off to go). I am very glad we did. It was so cute! They start out by corraling all the kiddies and chaperones into a theater-type setup with hay bales and they teach them about the different types of pumpkins. In addition to the little pumpk-introduction...--see what I did there!? ;-)...-- there was a corn maze --which was more of a mini parade of children, parents, & children. This was probably a good thing because it would be very easy for a child to get lost amongst all that corn! After the corn maze, we experienced a pig race --which was adorable, checked out some goats, then took a hayride out to the pumpkin patch. This was a REAL pumpkin patch where I literally picked my and my youngest's pumpkins straight off the vine! That was really neat because sometimes pumpkin "patches" are not so much better than traipsing through Walmart's garden center and grabbing one. To top it off they have a farmer's market. I am very much a fan of farmer's markets and I will take a side trip to one if I see a sign pointing one out. The 2 jams that I made were so delicious, I topped crackers in addition to toast. It even sparked my decision to try to make my own jam! read more

Can we do less than one star??? The 2017 Strawberry and Wine festival was an absolute bust. Pay $24 for two people to stand in line for a crappy wine tasting. Save your money and go to an actual winery. And not a Strawberry to be found.... Would have better fun lighting a $20 bill on fire. Talked to at least 10 people while in lines and they thought the same. Hint: look at the Bull Run Wine Festival as a case study in how to do one of these. Move along, nothing to see here. read more

We had been using Hanover Vegetable Farm to get our mulch for 4 years wanting to support small business and truly getting great service and mulch. This year was much different. I called and order 12 yards of mulch to be delivered (last year I ordered 11 and came up short and needed to get a few bags, no big deal, my fault) so this year I thought I would order another yard to make sure my yard was covered. After they dumped the mulch my husband (and neighbors) made a comment that there was no way that was 12 yards. I didn't think much of it and got to spreading. Well low and behold we came up FOUR beds short! Needless to say we are SO disappointed. We called and mentioned this on them and they assured us they we got the right amount but they will make sure it didn't happen again (fishy). They are correct about that as we will never buy mulch from them again. We always referred them to neighbors and family but never again. SO SO disappointed. Just beware when getting mulch delivered! I just hate to be taken advantage of. Very sad. read more

My sister and I love coming here every fall for the gourds, goblets and ghouls festival! We always have a great time and love stopping at the market for tomato pie on our way out! Will definitely be back! read more

Bought a pumpkin during their Pumpkin Picking Weekend on October 24th. It's now October 26th and my pumpkin is already rotten. Didn't even make it to Halloween. It was such a waste of money. read more

Disappointed is an understatement. Last spring we ordered topsoil from this company. Before it was even delivered the delivery driver was late. He called fussing because I didn't answer the door. He was at the wrong house (He inadvertently went to Dr. And we live on Ct). After the topsoil was delivered and we filled our vegetable garden beds using a wheel barrow and a shovel, I started to plant my vegetable plants. I immediately noticed shards of glass (ranging in size from smaller than a dime, to larger than a quarter), huge clumps of red mud, and loads of rocks (ranging in size from a pebble to rocks the size of a child's fist). I was not happy. When I called Hanover Vegetable Farm, Jeff was apologetic. He seemed sincerely sorry. He told me we were accidentally delivered fill dirt instead of top soil (fill dirt is for construction sites under pavement). He asked what I thought was a good solution. I wanted them to come to our house, remove the topsoil that they had delivered from my garden beds so we could start over and I wouldn't have to worry about glass. Which I am still finding. He offered us either 10 yards of topsoil or double shredded mulch for future projects. We agreed to that since we would need mulch in the future. I thought this deal was fair since it didn't seem likely Jeff would take the dirt out of the beds. Fast forward to this spring, I called Hanover Vegetable Farm. After a few back and forth phone calls, where they weren't going to give me the full 10 yards for free as originally agreed upon, they finally agreed and the mulch was delivered. Now, when I asked, they assured me that the mulch we were getting was shredded on site, double shredded. Included in the picture is some of the plastic and metal trash I've found so far. Plastic bags that have been shredded up, metal cans that have been shredded, thick pieces of plastic, pieces of plastic sheeting, plastic straws, the wire/paper twist ties found on bread loaf bags, plastic netting, even some foam letters that you would find in a grade school project. This is our third home in Richmond. We have had mulch delivered before to our other homes. We selected Hanover Vegetable Farm over another company we used previously because one of my good friends went to high school with the owners daughter and we have shopped there for plants for our last house and everyone we've come in contact with there has always been lovely face to face. I am frustrated. Mostly because I like to garden. I want my children to be a part of it because they enjoy eating the vegetables and fruit we grow out of our garden. They cannot dig or play in the garden because it is full of shards of glass, and I don't want them to cut themselves the way that I did. I'm also frustrated because either Hanover Vegetable Farm doesn't value me as a customer or they think I'm stupid. For any and all of these reasons I would recommend that you select any other mulch or topsoil place to do business with, even if the price is more. It's not worth it to worry about your children or you cutting yourself to save a few dollars. read more

Had a blast at the Gourds, Goblets and ghouls festival. There was plenty to keep myself and the kids entertained. Not expensive either. We have decided this is our favorite fall festival and can't wait for next year! read more

What they have is good, although one or two items were not as fresh as they should have been. The pole beans were almost yellow and the tops of the onions were wilted. I gave it a three in respect for what it used to be a few years ago. Not like that any more. It's on the way out by the looks of it. read more
