It's strawberry season and it has become a tradition we go strawberry picking Mother's Day weekend…read more Cherry Place has been our go to spot. It's a small family farm and they are always super nice. The strawberry fields are well maintained. It's not as large as some other places we've been, but we like that. There were a few muddy spots which was advertised and we had rain recently, but the paths were easy to walk. It was a busy day so they told us we would have to look under leaves to find the ripe berries. We still ended up with 2 lbs of berries and my daughter enjoyed. They tasted delicious, too. It was $4 per pound when we visited and they had jams and other products available. My daughter's favorite part is visiting the animals. They have some chickens and goats that are easy to get to. Sometimes they have corn out you can feed them with or you can bring some food to feed them. There's also a sink to wash hands after. Be careful with your strawberries or take them to the car first. I was taking a photo and a goat started to grab my bucket of strawberries. Lol. We haven't been to their fall event but love the smaller feel for strawberries. They post updates and info on their social media channels.

They had a small animal petting/feeding section, 2 corn mazes, hayride, pumpkins for purchase, etc. They serve free popcorn and have water and soft drinks for purchase. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Parking is on site and free. Admission was $10 per person.

Lots of parking, no lines for food, and plenty of room to roam in the pumpkin patch. We grabbed a wagon and some clippers and found a pumpkin to cut off the vine. There are plenty of pre-cut pumpkins too if you'd rather just pick one that way (and take some cute pics). The wood-fired pizza was SO good and fairly priced. We really enjoyed the salsiccia pie, but all of them sounded delicious. And had to get a half dozen cider donuts for the road, obviously. I'm looking forward to returning when our kids are a bit older to try more of the family-friendly activities!

I absolutely love this set up even more than the last location! There is so much for kids to do here and lots for adults too. We picked our pumpkins for the season and considering the amount of people here, there were still many great looking pumpkins. The lines were too long for the donuts/food so I didn't get to try any but I am hoping to eventually try the cider donut in the future! Definitely bring your friends and family here to check out the Hall Family Farm. Side note- I know the Halls from many years ago and they are a wonderful family! If you see them around be sure to meet them!!!

What an awesome experience! Great pumpkins to choose from (priced by size up to $25 for the…read morelargest) and they provide wagons for free. Fun to walk around and see the various farm animals. One of the pigs just had piglets and was chowing down on pumpkins! The hay ride was $5/person and lasted about 15 minutes; we enjoyed hearing about the history of the farm. Everyone was so friendly and happy to be there. The donuts are amazing, but heads up, the line will be long! Waited about 20 minutes to order. Will be going back and supporting their farm!

This was my first time here and it was super cute. I came with my fiance and we quickly realized…read morethis farm is a great place to bring kiddos so they can experience a fun fall festival environment. As for us adult kids it wasn't as exciting. There's lots of activities, photo opps and pumpkins to peruse. But in comparison to another spot we've been to we felt like there were some options missing for us personally. This isn't a knock to Hodges, just a personal preference. Now, if you have family in town and kiddos in tow this place is PERFECT! I would definitely recommend it for a fun fall time. Parking was easy, even on a super busy Saturday. There's plenty of signage so you know what's going on in all areas. The animals were pretty cool inside the barn too.

The live music was amazing and they had a food truck that was serving AMAZING pineapple fajitas in an actual pineapple.

This is NOT a kid friendly place. Guy behind the bar approached my 3 year son in a very rude tone…read moreto stop playing in the gravel instead of coming up to me. Another worker later on came up to all of our boys playing and approached them in another rude way telling them to "just chill out". Waited for us to walk away before they came up to the kids to yell at them. Then later on, when we were all leaving the worker said so loudly and abrupt.. "thank god all of those kids are leaving. Finally, see you guys" that man clearly does not have children. So I suggest you go somewhere else if you want to have a drink while your kids be KIDS outside. We will be sure to not return. As we felt very not welcomed back leaving the place. What a shame!

Based on the website this place seemed to offer so much more for the same price as others but…read morewelllllll not so much. There was no corn maize due to lack of rain but they conveniently didn't mention that even though we specifically asked. The kiddie area was much smaller than expected- most of the fishing poles were in disrepair and that day they had a group of obnoxious scout groups that were loud and aggressive with our little ones trying to also enjoy the different attractions We paid for two fire pits that was suppose to seat up to 50 and not hardly if it weren't for our Group bringing their own chairs it would have been a real challenge to seat 50 Their roasted corn is tasty and their general store cute but we came for a cornmaze and bonfire and really only got 1

Aw Shucks was one of the many barns they looked at but ended up being the winner and was highly talked about to us before we even arrived to the premises. The hype was real! The barn was absolutely gorgeous inside and out, (with full working A/C I might add!). The entire grounds is HUGE, there is a well constructed fire pit to sit around, and the area in the back where the marriage ceremony took place was properly shaded and well decorated. You can explore by walking around and there are little shops you can get adorable gifts from, try some yummy ice cream, or take instagram worthy pictures. The workers we encountered throughout our busy filled night were all extremely friendly and helpful. The outdoor bathrooms are the perfect setup and are actually the most fancy mobile bathrooms Ive ever seen lol. Thank you for making a friends wedding more than memorable. Please continue to be great!!!

Teacher friends-this is a fantastic place for a field trip. Easy booking online and the family is beyond inclusive for all children. Farmer Zack interacted with our family throughout our time there. Making sure we fit a wagon ride in before the excavator candy drop and the much anticipated corn maze. We grabbed our guide to solving the case throughout the corn maze and somehow did not get to the portion of the maze we needed to be. As we were exiting the farm at the end of the day, Drew saw Farmer Zack again and mentioned it. This kind man insisted on loading our family into his ATV and personally taking us through the corn maze. I cannot put into words how grateful we were as parents for someone to see how much something meant to our child and offer to go above and beyond to make sure it happened. We were leaving happy having enjoyed all of the other attractions prior to our VIP corn maze experience. I pray this family has years of success in the fall festival business. They truly pour their heart into what they do. We are patrons for life.

There is truly something for everyone!…read more We met the owners, Zach and Cori Almond, who told us some of the history of the farm. They are both the sweetest people and made us feel so welcomed. It was our family's first time visiting, and we absolutely loved it! Our girls loved taking pictures in the wildflowers. Our grandson loved the feed sack slides, bounce houses, and hayride. Pappy loved all the old trucks, and Oma loved picking flowers and feeding the animals. And we ALL loved the food! The apple cider donuts and apple cider float were the bomb! If you don't get one of those when you visit, you have definitely missed out! Such a wonderful place to make family memories. We can't wait to come back!

A lil context, I was looking for something to do solo and came across a "pick your own flowers" farm. But I found more than flowers. They had fields of berries, greens, honey from their hives and a selection of beautiful wildflowers. When I arrived there was a good number of moms with kids roaming the fields while pushing strollers and wagons. When I checked in they supplied me with a bucket for berries and told me which fields were open for picking. The flowers are per stem or fill a cup for $20. I filled my bucket which took about 30 minutes roaming 2 fields. The cost was a lot more than I would spend at the grocery store but now often do you get to make homemade strawberry preserves with berries you picked yourself?

Although, it was easy to make a reservation and there were a lot of time slots to choose from. This included seeing the animals (goats, pigs and bunnies), walking in the flower fields (a sunflower field and colorful flowers), the playground and taking photos. The playground really was not much and I think older kids would've gotten bored easily. For an extra fee, there is a corn pit to play in, a wagon ride and a train ride for kids. We did not do these. There wasn't a ton of places for photo ops, but there were some. They have a shop with goods for sale as well as some snacks and drinks like apple cider, slushies, apple cider donuts, alcohol, etc. We went the weekend after Halloween, so there weren't many pumpkins to see/choose from, but if we went earlier in the season I'm guessing there would have been. On the opposite side of the property, there was a Thai restaurant and a shop that served ice cream and alcohol. There were plenty of picnic tables and even a couple TV's showing football. This was a bit of a walk to get to, though. They also have pizza which you have to order ahead of time with your reservation if interested, but I've heard great things about the pizza. Keep in mind it is only porta johns, like many pumpkin patches. All in all, not my favorite pumpkin patch in the area, I questioned why we needed a reservation and to pay, it really didn't include much, but I'm wondering if we would've had a different experience if we went earlier in the season.
