Prices are slightly higher than other farm strands along the road. Large selection of dry goods and sundries as well.

The Iron Kettle Farm is a charming, well kept pumpkin farm with activities for the entire family. There and no parking or admission fees to enjoy the creatively set up representative displays of nursery rhymes and pop culture made with decorated pumpkins and straw bodies. There are low priced tickets available for hayrides, a corn maze and some other games and activities. Hot and cold cider, food and other beverages are available. There is a bit of a petting zoo. This a great stop for a few hours of fun near Owego. Not far from Binghamton or Ithaca.

Outhouse...Iron Kettle style

It's changed a lot since I first came here. This is a definite MUST for October. Kids will LOVE it...and adults will get some of the inside jokes told by the pumpkin people. They set it up with animals, corn field mazes, go-carts, and lots of activities and food. I remember when it was just the pumpkin people and the small gift shop. It's good all year round, but it's totally necessary if you're in a 100 mile radius during October. Traveling from Ithaca to NYC, take 96 past IC instead of going up past Cornell...just keep going straight and you'll find it.

Okay, first let me say that this place has the best prices hands down for pumpkins, mums etc. The…read moreworkers are very nice and usually have samples out for you to try . My only suggestion is that they try to clean the place up a little! They could make a killing if they just fixed their signage ( which needs some serious updating , even the signs on the backroads are faded and hard to see!) The photo op area is off to the side surround by weeds and just looks like a real mess - which is what I think keeps people and families away. I know it's a small family business but this is something that can be worked on in the off season. Just these little tweaks to your business could really bring in a crowd. Unless that's what you're trying to avoid- which I also understand . They also need to work on their social media page- especially Instagram. Things are often misspelled , the number of years they have been open often changes, or the odd pictures of the older son with his shirt off is kind of weird to me , especially on a pumpkin farm page. But just thought I'd give my 2 cents. Otherwise, I can't wait to stop up and get some pumpkins and mums!

It's not fancy and full of arts and crafts, but the prices simply cannot be beat on all…read moreitems...pumpkins (all sizes and colors!), squash (many varieties!), brussel sprouts (best I have ever had), peppers, tomatoes, apples, etc. The owners are very nice people and extremely helpful if you need it. Its not as far a drive for Binghamton area residents (as Jacksons and Iron Kettle) and the prices are much better.

When our daughters were toddlers, they could spend all day looking at the animals while we browsed through the enormous quantities of plants and produce. But we can't continue to ignore the "cons". The parking lot looks like it's been bombed, and - as other reviews have noted - it's not exactly the safest place when you consider lots of children running around. Visitors must be extra vigilant and patient when pulling in and finding a place to park. On busy days, the one long narrow strip of parking spots can be a challenge. The far end of the business where chicks, ducks, and bunnies are sold is incredibly fly infested. Fly paper rolls could go a long way in making it more tolerable. I'm not sure if the horrid conditions in some of the cages impacts the health of the birds, but I can tell you we purchased 5 silkie chicks a couple of weeks ago, and two of them died within days, and a third is showing signs of distress. This is not the first time we've had this experience with animals we've purchased there - sick animals, inaccurate sexing. We have stopped considering Frog Pond as our "go-to" place when we want to add to our flocks. The flies are also a problem in the fruits and vegetables. I was browsing the display of berries and grapes and completely rejected any notion of buying them with the quantity of flies that were landing on them. I don't know if there's a solution to that, being that it's - in effect - an outdoor farm stand. Look, there's a lot that's amazing and wonderful and unique about Frog Pond. The work they put in to stocking it, the amazing math wizard at the register who adds everything up in his head just like his dad did, etc. The place has gotten a LOT bigger since we first discovered it and that growth may be working against them. Other reviewers have stated much of the produce is trucked in from outside the area, and not grown locally. Not sure if that matters to most people, but the place does give the "vibe" that it's a local source farm stand that offers plentiful heaps of whatever's in season. The prices are quite a bit higher than what you'd pay for similar items in local grocery stores, but again - we understand the overhead must be pretty substantial for Frog Pond. If you have children - especially little ones - they'll see the place as Disney. When the magic wears off, though, and you start noticing how many greenbacks you're handing over when you go, you start to consciously reflect on whether it's worth the trip out there.

Thete as ZERO food. ZERO water or other aily drinks to buy. just alcohol on a hot day with kids? there was no face painting when we arrived before 4:00 PM and the only kids activities were a coloring page!!!! Pathetic. A local playground has more to offer. they say they have a slide- no one can find it. Their " playground" consists of old farm tubing put up on nails of straw. (mind you the kids can climb to the top of the straw and then want to jump off the top because there are no safety ropes. I get they want our money. Driving here and back to have unhappy kids after they were promised a strawberry festival and there wasn't even a strawberry in sight to even feed the kids. COMPLETE SCAM. Avoid like the lie they have become here!!! Next time go to Abbot's or other fruit farms they have real activities for kid, foods, restaurants, and they ALWAYS HAVE WATER to buy. NEVER AGAIN!
