The small farm had a small lavender shop with items like t shirts, soaps, and lotions. We bought some honey and cookies. They both have a nice lavender aroma and are tasty. We were very lucky to be able to visit when the plants were blooming and able to enjoy the lavender smell as soon as we walked out of the car. The parking area is small and on a hill next to the road, so be careful when backing up into traffic as you leave.

My family of six all came away happy and grateful for the experience. For a while, it felt like the world slowed down, and we were fully present together with Red and Flash. Andrea is a highly skilled and experienced facilitator who guided us with care, building trust and intuitively adapting to our family's needs throughout the session. Everyone took away something meaningful, and there were smiles all around. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to slow down, be present, and open themselves up to something new.

There are certain things in life that you simply have to trust…read more You trust that the guy who designed the bridge knew what he was doing. You trust that the pilot sitting up front has successfully done this before. And, occasionally, you have to trust a friendly waitress when she looks at you with the quiet confidence of someone who knows the menu far better than you ever will and tells you what you should eat. This was one of those times. We live in Star Valley, and every once in a while you get a craving for something specific enough that you're willing to get in the car and go find it. On this particular day, we really wanted Italian food. Not pizza. Not a sandwich that could technically be considered Italian because someone put salami on it. We wanted a plate of pasta, garlic bread, a good salad... the whole deal. So, we made the trip up to Strawberry to try MamaJoe's Italian Grill. After looking through the menu and contemplating all of the possibilities, I decided to stop pretending that I knew what I was doing and asked our waitress what she recommended. Shrimp Alfredo. Ok. I'm in. Now, Alfredo is one of those dishes that seems simple enough, but there is a tremendous amount of mediocre Alfredo wandering around this country... overcooked pasta drowning beneath a sea of thick white sauce, desperately hoping that enough parmesan cheese will hide its shortcomings. This was not that. The pasta was cooked perfectly, the sauce was creamy and flavorful without becoming a bowl of paste, and the shrimp tasted like they had actually been flame grilled. There was just enough of that grilled flavor to make you stop for a second and wonder exactly what they had done back there. It was fantastic. Even the supporting cast showed up ready to work. The salad came with house-made bleu cheese dressing that was excellent, and the garlic bread performed its important societal function of making sure no Alfredo sauce was unnecessarily left behind on the plate. Then our waitress suggested the Old Fashioned Lemon Cake. At this point she had earned my trust, so there really wasn't much of a decision to make. I'm glad I listened. This isn't just a piece of lemon cake. There is a solid lemon cake base with what I can only describe as a lemon custard kind of layer on top... sweet, tart, creamy and absolutely delicious. The whole meal was simply wonderful. Great food, great service, and one of those friendly small-town restaurant experiences where you get the distinct impression that the people serving you actually want you to enjoy what they're serving. There is probably a lesson in here somewhere... Maybe it's that when someone who spends their days watching people order food tells you what you should eat, you should listen. Or maybe it's simply that really good Alfredo and homemade lemon cake can make you surprisingly philosophical. Either way, if you're sitting in Payson or Star Valley or Globe craving Italian food, it's absolutely worth the drive up to Strawberry. And if the waitress tells you what to order, for God's sake, listen to her.

We were seated quickly and started deciding what we were going to order; drinks came fairly quickly, my Moscow Mule was good and gingery, the others had the brewery's own ale beer. Our server Americus was absolutely wonderful: as usual I explained my severe allergy to peppers in general and specifically any type of chile. She went inside to consult their "allergy" food list and came back with what I could safely eat. She's the only person ever, here in AZ, to have gone and double-checked the various dishes to keep me safe. Thank you so much Americus :)) We shared the fried green beans - deliciously crispy :) - with the wasabi mayonnaise dip for them; also had the onion rings that were nice and crispy, and although tempting to get a second order of appetizers ....we decided to go on to the mains. Mine was the Patty Melt on rye and fries, cooked medium rare as I like it, with onions on the side, the other orders were the Whisky Bacon burger that was looking very good as well, and another diner had a big salad - not sure which TBH because I was busy eating ...oops! The evening was nice and the patio had a few dogs: Yes, it is dog friendly !! We left sated, with replenished growlers, and looking forward to next time.

We decided to sit outside since the weather was nice but ended up moving inside because of all the mosquitos.

We ordered a flight of beer, coconut shrimp and the August food special : Quesabirrias. The beer was decent and both food items were good. Jaime was our waitress and was very nice and helpful. They usually have live music on the weekends and make homemade cobbler everyday which I really wanted to try but was to full.

They own 800 acres and the property is built on 20 acres, it was built between 1971-1975 for the main spaces that are shared. 45 people live there but could range to 80.

Clearly what the original architect had in mind many years ago never came to fruition as it really hasn't changed in years. Is appears to be a small artist community but we didn't see anything going on at the moment so couldn't tell if it id still active or they make everything south in Scottsdale at Cosanti. There is a gift shop where you can watch a brief video on the history and learn about their wind chime creations. Personally I've received many of the wind chimes over the last 20 years for housewarmings or Christmas gifts. Each is unique. The greeter in the gift shop was friendly and stated there is a tour available as well. We didn't have time for the tour but purchased a couple of small gifts. He suggested visiting the Scottsdale location as well which is called Cosanti. I had no idea it was located in Scott's well. Will check it out.

Upon arrival we had to wait a few minutes longer than start time, but it was because agent ensured we were able to tour without any other group issues!

He was knowledgeable and funny and accommodating, and we would recommend this tour and John T to anyone even thinking about it. In terms of difficulty, there were moments that were a little harrowing, but we were definitely at ease with our driver. The views and experience more than make up for it though! Please do yourself a favor and utilize this company and ask for John T. Because we booked more than one tour with them, they even accommodated a deal for us on our next tour!
