Perfectly fine soft serve…read more This is very much a place you take the little ones to for that quick sweet treat. They got that custom mix soft serve machine which is pretty much like a blizzard that they mix flavor concentrate into rather than mix ins. It's a decent quality soft serve base, and the price is reasonable for the area. It's not award winning or great, but it's good enough. I would skip the flavors (lots of them have the extract problem where the concentrate has too much chemicals in it which translates to the ice cream). But it's quick and decent ice cream.

The perfect little store the get fresh local fruits and veggies. I've been coming here for as long…read moreas I can remember. It is located in an old large farm building that provides a nice rustic farm atmosphere. There usually isn't a huge amount of produce to choose from, but what they do have is fresh and in season. During the fall I always get my apple cider from here and they even have hot samples on site. And we especially enjoy the garlic! It's much better than what you get in the grocery store. The woman who runs it also provides many free recipe cards! If you're in the area definitely check this place out. It's great to support small family run businesses like this one. While I've never done this here, I believe they allow apple picking during the the season.

Strong Farm's annual scarecrow contest is a family affair for children and adults of all ages…read more There are two contest classes, business and family with ribbons awarded in each class. Judging and the awards ceremony occurs late October usually a week or so before Halloween. This is our fifth contest and perhaps the largest we've seen to date, interest has been growing steadily since it began 6 years ago. Local vendors and artisans promote their crafts: jewelry, home made jams, jellies, preserves, bake goods, scarfs and artwork. The 4H club brings animals for display and petting making the event very interesting for younger children. This is a day of good wholesome family fun day, connecting attendees to rural life on the farm.

This is typically my first stop when I need groceries. Their prices on most items I buy are less…read moreexpensive than other stores and the quality is good.Staple items such as bread, vegetables & dairy are purchased here. Their bread selection is pretty good. They carry items such as the chocolate-filled croissant rolls that are just as tasty as a local warehouse club sells but half the size. Their artisan breads are as good as any we've found in other stores. We love the sourdough here. They also carry a brand sometimes from Illinois that my hubby grew up eating with Italian beef. We bought ciabatta rolls this time and they are the softest ones we've ever had! They still have that chewy texture but are super soft. We had them with cheese & prosciutto for a snack, & later made sandwiches. The fruits & vegetables here are usually in good shape. Bananas are not always ripe but everything else has been good. Fruits such as grapes & berries are budget-friendly and last well in the refrigerator. I buy squash, potatoes & onions regularly. The dairy case offers good prices most of the time. The week before Thanksgiving, they had a good sale on butter quarters as they were marked $1.50 off with a limit of 6. Yep, I hit that limit! Milk prices here are good as well as eggs. We pay around half as much for eggs here than at other stores. Cream cheese, sour cream & shredded cheeses are all at a bargain and taste good, but the star of the dairy case is the selection of gourmet cheeses that are ridiculously affordable! They carry so many different types of cheeses that work well for entertaining, whether on a charcuterie board or on their own. Cheeses such as Gouda, Gruyère, Havarti, & Brie along with cheddar and other more familiar cheeses. If you're interested in trying a new kind of cheese or flavor, the prices are reasonable enough to do so. With cheeses you often serve crackers & their store brands of crackers are quite good. They have an entertaining box of crackers that has several different types, all delicious & pair well with cheese. Their version of Wheat Thins is a staple in my pantry. I buy many of my baking supplies here as well as oils for cooking. The prices are good and my baked goods come out delicious. Their seasonal aisle has some great finds - foods, beverages & an assortment of decor & gift items as well. We have tried several of their store brand condiments with success. Their mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup & Worcestershire sauce are spot on flavor-wise. Their version of A-1 has a different flavor than the original but it's a good flavor. I use it in place of A-1 and no one has noticed. These are all priced well below name brands & are worth trying. Aldi has lots of options for prepared meals for those times you need something quick. Their Mama Cozi's take & bake pizzas are good in flavor & price, as are the heat & eat entrees such as pork carnitas. 3 minutes in the microwave & you have a main entree. The frozen food section is a treasure hunt for us. We never know what will be in those cases and we've been happy with the items we've picked up. They sometimes carry a delicious frozen French onion soup that I love stocking my freezer with. Pizza from Chicago area restaurant that hubby grew up eating. Desserts galore! We have picked up frozen items for Oktoberfest celebrations when we know we'll be short on time. Schnitzel cooks up quickly, spaetzle is in there (red cabbage is in the veggie aisle), apple struedel, Black Forest cake....so many options! I stock up on frozen veggies here as well. The checkout process is FAST! It's amazing how quickly the cashiers can ring up your purchases & help get you on your way. You won't find grumpy cashiers here! They are always smiling, greeting us & asking if we found everything okay. If you haven't shopped at Aldi before, bring a quarter to get a cart (you get a quarter returned to you at checkout). Bring your own bags as well. I took off one star because they don't carry everything I need & I always have to shop at a second store to get everything on my list. It's worth it to me because I save so much money shopping here.

I can't wait to check out what they got for blueberry season! Trees - all trees were $40-50 I believe, regardless of size. It takes a bit to get that mature pine smell you're used to but that means the tree lives longer. Mine didn't start shedding until after Christmas. Strawberries - As of today, my strawberry flat is their Facebook cover photo. For $2.99/lb, it is a great price. You're getting a variety of sweet, tart, plump, large and small strawberries. They're open until 8pm so it's a fun post-work activity.

Though my toddler wasn't old enough for some of the activities she managed to run around the entire farm, through corn mazes, see all the animals, and pumpkin patch nonstop. There are food trucks as well if you want to really spend the day here which is a cool perk. The grounds are very clean and safe and there are workers monitoring the area nonstop and even parking attendants! I cannot wait to take my daughter back we both had so much fun.
