We absolutely love coming to Holly Fork Farm each year for our field trip! They do such an amazing job making the experience fun, educational, and enjoyable for everyone. The staff is incredibly organized and welcoming, and there are so many wonderful activities for the kiddos. The students learn about the pumpkin life cycle and the different parts of a pumpkin, and they even get to pick out a pumpkin to take home! There are two different areas for the children to play, farm animals to see, a fun hayride around the farm, and a picnic area where we can enjoy lunch. Everything is always very clean and well-maintained, and we especially appreciate how kind and accommodating the owner and staff are. They truly make our visit special every year. We look forward to coming back year after year and are so thankful to Holly Fork Farm for providing such a wonderful experience for our students! read more

We came here to take our son to the pumpkin patch for the very first time. After doing some research, this farm was off the path and seemed to have a lot to offer. We got here on a Sunday about 30 minutes after they opened. Staff were helpful in directly traffic to park and explain what general admission covered. They have a large pumpkin patch offering pumpkins of all different sizes. We got a pumpkin from the kid pumpkin patch which offered all orange pumpkins at $5.99. They also had larger pumpkins of all colors and sizes at 99 cents per pound. You could also pick sunflowers or flowers in the fields right next to the pumpkins. Everything was in close proximity to each other but I would recommend if you have a stroller, to leave it at home and bring either a wagon or baby carrier. The fields are bumpy so driving a stroller can be hard to do. There was tons of activities including face painting, animal feeding, line dancing, pumpkin slinging. The farm got busy FAST but staff were working hard to help all. I loved the little country store with tons of food products and novelties. Food items were decently priced and doable for larger families. Food was very limited and offering smaller items like hot dogs, fries, chicken nuggets, and nachos. If they had food trucks come I feel like that would be a huge hit. We had a great time here and will be back in the future. read more

Holly Fork Farm is a charming experience for those looking to leave the city behind and enjoy a bit of rural fun, particularly during their autumnal events. Went here recently with my parents to enjoy the nice day and get some fall activities in. It's nice that they let people 60+ in for free so my parents didn't have to pay, and my basic ticket was $10. The all-inclusive pass is $25 but frankly this isn't really worth getting except for families looking to use the children's attractions like the slide and bounce house. There were plenty of chickens wandering around, as well as ducks, pigs, and other assorted barnyard animals in various pens which were fun to see. The pumpkin launching thing was a blast though $10 for three small pumpkins to fire is pretty pricey. The apple cider donuts were expensive too, 2 for $5 for small donuts. Thankfully the short hayride experience was included in the admission. While this was a cute experience, I think the main draw is for families with young children who would make the most use of all the activities here or older folks who are able to enjoy it for free. Otherwise, there's not much for those in their 20's-40's to do, though I did enjoy the brief time with the pumpkin launcher. If you have kids, definitely come! Others might want to review their other options. --- Overall: 4.0 stars Pros: - Nice staff, very friendly and helpful. - Inviting family-friendly atmosphere. - Free for 60+, not too expensive for others if you skip the kid stuff. - Plenty of stuff for kids if you're here for that. Cons: - Everything is a bit of an abridged version of things you might find elsewhere: very short small hayride, small play areas for kids. - Nothing to do for those without kids, nothing like rope swings or wine tasting. read more

I stopped off here instead of college farm where we usually get pumpkins bc it's closer. It was nice that the prices were on thre pumpkins. However. I had never gotten a rotten pumpkin, so I didn't think to inspect it thoroughly. Drove 45 minutes home & sat my $13 punkin down to decide on decorating. Bugs later appearing & when I flipped it over, I noticed it was rotten. Had to throw it outside. (I usually but Cinderella or Fairytale pumpkins bc I like the taste. I usually only put the cheap pumpkins outside.) Personally, I'll stick with college farm. This farm did seem to have a lot for children to keep entertained & sold clothes, fresh eggs, & other jams, etc. (For kids, I prefer Dardens. The owner loves to educate kids & allow them to touch everything. They have breast cancer pink pumpkins that they donate money to fight breast cancer. They also have great pies & smoked ham.) read more

Me and my two girls ages 2 and 6 came here Sunday to go strawberry picking. The staff was so friendly and helpful on telling us where to get the baskets and walking us to the fields. After we were done picking strawberries I got some fresh eggs and they offered to hold everything up front with my name on it. We rode the hay ride and the car train. The playground was a lot of fun. When we went to order food one of the staff saw I was walking back in the building and she helped me even though it was getting crowded. Our food came out fast and was so good. I felt so welcomed. I'm definitely going back. read more

Although the overall concept of this activity is creative, after 14 years of being opened and knowing how many visitors are coming through on a regular basis, especially in October, the premises were lacking in cleanliness and were in much need of a refresh. Especially the 4 porta potties available for guests, situated by the small and rather boring area that held a few pigs, ducks, rabbits and hens. The porta potties were filled to overflowing and obviously had not been cleaned out in several days. There was a shortage of paper towels by the handwashing station, that itself needed to be cleaned thoroughly. For as many people there who paid a good amount of money to allow there children to jump on old tractor tires, swing on a few swings and get filthy in an area filled with dusty, dirty corn kernels and old broken toys, the overall experience left those of us there for a birthday party, disgusted by the obvious filth and extremely unsanitary and unsafe conditions. Bees were everywhere and aggressive. The announcements were especially bad, simply reminding everyone to go purchase lemonade, ice cream or something from their overpriced shops. If you don't purchase the upgraded tickets, the poor children can only play in a coupLe of areas in the area. Watching and not understanding why they can't play in the bouncy house or do other activities they see other children engaging in. This just makes the parents feel guilty and over extended with their budgets trying to keep their children from having a meltdown. This place definitely needs to be refreshed and cleaned up ASAP! read more

We did the "Mommy & Me" camp yesterday and LOVED it there - it was our first visit! Wide variety of animals with clean, cute enclosures - everything is very nicely put together and charming with lots of play areas for the kids. The owner, Stephanie, is delightful, helpful, and very welcome, as is all of the staff there. I would highly recommend - we will definitely be there again for fall activities! read more

We love this place! We have come here for five years and each year it is bigger and bigger! The only complaint is that when they check you out the pricing is sketchy. Some items are not clearly marked and we have been over charged before. Not so much a complaint, but I'd prefer that an adult handle my purchases. I don't feel comfortable having an eight year old ringing me up and charging my credit card. read more

Took my toddler and my newborn as with our MOPS group in the fall. It had rained the night before so many of the games and fun things were closed that morning. Our young children had a wonderful time playing in the corn kernel pit for hours. The shop was fun to peruse, although none of us bought anything. The chickens and ducks were less than interested in the corn feed we bought to feed them. An employee was also feeding them hot dogs or something to that effect from the back of their coop enclosure so that may have been why. Wide selection of ornate pumpkins and classic orange. Priced comparable to those at any pumpkin patch. Pro-tip: if you're bringing a stroller be prepared for a workout. The large stone gravel does not allow for stroller wheels to maneuver. read more
