PUMPKIN PATCH (2023) Found this little local gem on Yelp. The reviews were older, but we were in the area so we took a gamble and drove over (2023) for the pumpkin patch. For $5 you get to park your car in the adjacent lot and gain admission to their little fair (we had cash, not sure if they accept credit or debit). There were a bunch of pumpkin displays, free hayride, kid activities, vendors selling local goods (knits, clothing, baked goods, soaps, popcorn, honey, etc.), and a haunted maze for $2 admissions within the grounds. Some of the activities require additional cost (like the pumpkin painting for the kids). They have chickens roaming around the property (they usually stay near their little chicken coop in the far back). The free hayride was fun, just a little ride around their property- nothing spectacular. The kids on our tour ride seem to enjoy it :P If you're looking to spend about 40 mins or less at a pumpkin patch, this is the place to go! read more

Mona - the owner - has a fun & passionate personality. I could talk to her forever. She really loves her animals & takes great care of everything in the property including her customers safety. I came here because a few of my clients highly recommended Lola's Market to me because of its quality & super friendly customer service. Plus it is local & who doesn't love fresh & local things? She has clear signs before you enter the property to make sure everyone is safe. I love it maybe because I'm a big "sign" person. Haha This is NOT a Zoo, please don't chase her animals & respect her simple & basic rules for not doing so. Just like you want people to respect your own house rules & you don't want people squeezing & chasing your children (well, at least I don't). Pets are not allowed inside so they don't try to chase/fight/eat her chickens for instance. My dog would love to do that, but he didn't as he was kept in the car & enjoyed the beautiful country view from there. :) This is a very stylish country place with a lot love, time & energy spent into it. Everyone with an open mind, respectful attitude & a open heart is welcome. Even if you just want to stop by to say hello. Mona & her animals will be happy to see you. Her deco is cute, but no it is NOT for sale. Most of the cute things there was given to Mona by old friends, customers & her grandmother. We love the fact that she shares it with us & we have the opportunity to admire it. Everything has a story behind & meaning. I highly recommend her place, it is very unique & welcoming. It is too sad that people are entitled & go out of there way to try to damage a person's dream & hard work. Some people have absolutely NO idea what it takes to run a successful business. Ignore the hate & very negative things people have to say. Don't even take my word for it. Go there & check it out for yourself. You'll love it too especially if you have learned how to appreciate the value of simple things in life. Mona, I just want to say thank you very much for you being who you are & for keeping the doors open to serve us fresh & local produce. There are many people out there looking for what you have to offer & we are very grateful for your hard work. Your place is a gem & we can't recommend it enough, Linda read more

This place is absolutely precious! We visited for the very first time on Monday & were blown away by the available fresh market items you can buy. Our kids were very amused by Lola the pig, the chickens, the bunnies, and Senor Lucky the tortoise. The staff working that day were also incredibly helpful and knowledgeable! If you are looking for rarities like local honey or quail eggs, check this place out! read more

I've only lived in the area a short time so I haven't had a chance to try everything yet, but WOW their Elderberry Syrup lives up to it's reputation! read more

I couldn't get past the rules board with a bad word and an even worse attitude. Don't care for it and my rule is...my money won't support this business. read more

Great fresh produce, eggs, and always something new. A fun place for kids and adults.

Don't use the posted hours to see if they are open. They are usually closed and last visit a little whiskey tipsy, but still didn't want to sell any firewood. Some of the staff is a bit rude if they actually are open. read more

Amazing place. I got to enjoy their farm to table beans and other great foods at Frank Restaurant in Dallas. Can't wait to visit in person some time!! read more

We love Lola's! It's especially fun in fall! The amazing decor and super fun activities for the family makes this place a new tradition in our family. We pick our pumpkins here every year and I hope to continue indefinitely! read more

Absolutely amazing! Fresh & clean! Mona is super super sweet! Every time I come I always find what I need & some more. Vegetables & fruits are kept very well & fresh. read more

While the little farm looks cute and animals are free to roam giving you the impression everything is in good care there are a few things to take note. Many reviews might seem inviting since they are acquainted with the owner. I visited twice and I still had the same experience. The produce is small for the price, the honey is overly priced (I found better deals at Trade Days and in some organic shops), they had a pie priced at $30 and it was just sitting out. Preserves, salsas, anything in the jars overly priced and don't taste like anything great for the price. I'm sticking with Trade Days. Much more to do and better things to find. read more

Well, we were out cruising around when we noticed this cool looking little establishment. It looked like a cute little country place, but alas, they DID NOT have a cute little country attitude. From the moment you walk up, there's a list of very clear, very specific, rules that may include certain words you don't want your child reading aloud. Just so you know, you can't bring any dogs, you can't pick up rocks, they're not your babysitter, they won't sell their decor, you can't touch the animals (which are roaming freely), and that's just the beginning. Now, I'm ok with rules and protecting the sanity of livestock, but the signs make you feel like you've entered a possessive hoarder's domain who will absolutely flip if you even think about looking at anything besides what they want you to see . Maybe, had we been met with some sort of friendly greeting, the numerous warning signs would have been more humorous. So, let's get down to the merchandise. They're expensive and the stuff they're selling doesn't look aesthetically pleasing; like it had been on the shelf way longer than it should've. Still, if you like looking at old rusty things (we do), not being bothered by customer service, and getting a good dose of written attitude, this is your place! read more

This is probably my most favored farmers markets . Mona is very nice kind quick helps you find what your looking for. There is a new snow cone all homemade place there . They are absolutely perfect and many varieties of amazing flavors gives you many options which is always nice!! read more

Very cute country farm stand. The produce is fantastic! Sells local crafts and plants. Has live animals for kids to see and a shaved ice stand. Owner is friendly. The hours vary based on the season/weather so I recommend calling before heading over. read more

It's pretty sweet, I had a good time with the kiddos. For some reason I still have to keep writing words or it won't let me post it so here you go America! read more

Great atmosphere! So nice to have access to locally grown organic produce and homemade goods. I would definitely recommend a visit with your family as there's much more to do than just browse the goods. read more
