    View from tram/tractor tour of where pumpkins are grown
    Amanda R.

    This is my second year in a row coming here! By far my favorite pumpkin patch in the Marin county/Sonoma area. I love that it is family operated and that all the pumpkins are grown onsite at the farm! The grounds are always wonderfully maintained and we LOVE the tram ride through where the pumpkins are grown. (We especially love how comfortable the ride is with the wooden benches instead of your typical bales of hay that most other pumpkin patches use). There is also a fun audio tour that plays while you are driven around the ranch. We also love the free haunted house, pumpkin cannons, and especially the pumpkin slingshot! The pumpkin slingshot wasn't running this year, but they had an awesome display of old turn of the century motors which was really neat to see. Looking forward to our visit next year!

    This was a good low-key location for young children and their families. They had a deceptively large haunted house that my 7-year-old was excited to run through a few times. There was a variety of pumpkins (pre-picked), with diverse sizes, shapes, colors, and types. Hay bales stacked to climb, some corn to run through (not quite a maze unless we missed that). We didn't do the pumpkin toss, but there was an opportunity to let a pumpkin fly via slingshot. It's a family run place with friendly and welcoming people working there.

    Loved the Muelrath pumpkin patch! Absolutely gorgeous pumpkins, gords, and other wonderful things to buy. The kids lookedlike they were having fun in the corn maze, the hay climbing and pumpkin launching. Very cute family owned farm!

    Fun times at the pumpkin farm!

    This is a very sweet pumpkin farm, not crowded and a great place for kids. My grandkids loved it!

    Such a nice pumpkin patch to take the kids where it doesn't cost an arm and a leg, they get good wholesome fun and the people who own it are true gems. So much fun for our grandsons last night.

    Muelrath Ranches was one of the participants in the October 2019 Sonoma Farm trails. They set up the property for their fall pumpkin patch and according to the signage, will be open through the season for pumpkins and fall activities. Very nice family running the event and cute set up that included a small haunted house, corn maze and picnic tables to BYO lunch. They had a great variety of pumpkins at very reasonable prices and it's good to support local farmers. I noticed a sign that said they'll be hosting evening hayrides and activities for a small entrance fee on certain evenings through Halloween. Very glad I made this a stop on my Farm Trails route and enjoyed their fall layout.

    We stumbled across this cute pumpkin farm on our drive. Audrey was very quick to greet us and tell us all we needed to know before heading into the farm! She got the haunted house ready for us, even though it was very close to closing time, so we could experience it. It was surprisingly big and there were spooky characters at every turn! They really nailed it. They have a great variety of pumpkins and it was really nice to go in the late afternoon/early evening to avoid the excessive heat. Will definitely come back again and highly recommend to others!

    Review #173 - 2020 I didn't expect pumpkin patches to open up so early, but I'm so glad that Muelrath Ranches decided to since my daughter loves visiting pumpkin patches. The ranch was cutely decorated for their grand opening day and there were lots of pumpkin selections. There were only a few other customers there when we showed up at around 1:45 PM on Saturday, September 26th, so we pretty much had the whole place to ourselves. The only bad thing was the weather was about 95° out so we couldn't enjoy as much as we possibly could. The couple that owns the ranch are very friendly people! They made us feel very welcomed & even offered my daughter a Halloween treat. We took plenty of pictures as the place was very open and inviting. We bought a few tiny decorative pumpkins and some kabochas for me to cook later. Unfortunately, one happened to be too young so it didn't have much flavor, but it was nice & fresh. Plus, at just $0.99/lb for everything, it was a steal. I look forward to coming back again in the future.

    Quaint family owned pumpkin patch. Very personable staff Makes you feel like you're a part of their family. Great selection of unique pumkins, gourds and squash. Will definitely be back next year!

    Very cute little pumpkin patch with a wide range of pumpkins for sale. The prices are good. Tiny pumpkins are $1-3, and the largest ones are about $25. The bounce house is $2 for 10 minutes, and the hay "pyramid" and hay tunnel were fun to play with. My son loved all the photo cutouts and he had a great time. The only problem is that they only accept cash and credit cards, and there are no ATMs nearby. I missed that on their website, so I didn't have enough cash to buy all the pumpkins we wanted. But I think we'll be back (with cash!) to get some more pumpkins closer to Halloween!

    Surrounded by hundreds of pots of assorted peppers Kevin McEnnis speaks fondly about his produce,…read moreand he displays an unmistakable passion in describing his New Mexican chiles and his Poblano chile peppers. He should. For these, his mixed sweet peppers and his Early Girl tomatoes are the crops that his Quetzal Farm are best known for. Kevin and his business partner, Keith Abeles, operate the 10 acre farm in Santa Rosa, and they recently took time out from their busy weekend schedules to offer our Berkeley-based group a tour of their farm. Kevin started the farm in 1999 and his farm has been certified organic since 2002. Kevin tells us he named the farm after the national bird of Guatemala for it was there where he planted his first farm. He is the core farmer at this site while Keith promotes sales and administrative duties. The location of the farm is key to the produce harvested here. Here they have the intense Santa Rosa heat coupled with a prominent marine layer to successfully produce warm weather crops such as tomatoes side by side with cold weather crops such as lettuce. Kevin tells us the unique weather helps his produce to mature slowly creating a more vibrant flavor. We took a walking tour into one of their greenhouses, and as soon as we entered the enclosure we noticed it was like walking into a sauna. Inside the greenhouse our group marveled at the specialty herbs, brightly colored radishes and a field full of green garlic with many of us stopping to take a photo or two. Two dozen in my case! Back outside Kevin described in detail some of their sustainable farming techniques and showed us why they use raised soil beds to take advantage of the unique climate and better drainage. Like many organic farms they create their own compost here and the farm grows cover crops to protect their soil as good soil is a vital part to any successful farm. While the farm is well known for only specific types of produce Keith told us that their recent trials with lemon cucumbers and English cucumbers have done exceptionally well. In addition the farm dries their own chiles and sells these and freshly made salsas at local farmers markets. Following our tour Kevin and Keith led us into the barn, broke out some tortilla chips and allowed our group to sample some of their tasty salsas. I loved both their Chipotle Salsa and Hot Salsa so much I purchased a pint of each along with some super fresh produce that was picked for our group that morning. Produce from Quetzal Farm can be found locally at the Thursday Berkeley Farmer's Market, the Saturday Berkeley Farmer's Market and the Sunday Marin Farmer's Market. In addition, their dried chiles are sold at Bi-Rite Market in San Francisco, Rockridge Market Hall in Oakland, the Santa Rosa Community Market and selected Whole Foods markets in the North Bay.

    Wandering around the Berkeley Saturday Market a few weeks ago, my purchase of the day was the…read moreQuetzal Farm Chipotle Salsa. The label screams HOT! and almost scared me off but it's just the right combination of roasted sweet fresh tomatoes and spice. I just had the perfect low carb dinner: grilled salmon, fresh avocado both covered with Quetzal Chipotle Salsa. Delicious! I had to write this review.
