Once at the entrance, you are scan your ticket and parking with a parking attendant. There is parking available on site, depending on the day and whether it is sold out. It's a good idea is buy parking ahead of time or you will be forced to park in the residential area. The farm is huge and everything is spread out, so expect a lot of walking. You are given a map of the festival. It can be a little hard to follow since not everything is cleared labeled outside the map. The farm has designated areas, such as the shops, food, and activities. Everything is on theme of lavender: food, drinks, and merch. Some that stood out to me is the matcha room, flower market, the blacksmith shop, and a coffee shop. There is 123 merch at some shops and local vendors selling their art work. Theres vendors selling candies, crochet, book marks, crystals, etc. Although the festival entry is at 5, most shops and vendors do not open until 6. Through the farm, there are workers around. However, some can be unfriendly. There are bathrooms and no porta potties! In the food area, there is pizza, sandwiches, carne asada fries, bbq. I ordered from the grill and got a steak sandwich (minus the bread) and they were very accommodating. I received a buzzer and my order did not take long. Dessert, there is ice cream, funnel cake, cheesecake, pies. There are a ton of beverage options besides coffee and matcha, like lemonade and alcohol. There is a stage for live music and lots of seating for eating. Music acts are listed online and on the map. There alot of spots for photo ops and there is also a Photo Booth! Such a great place, I've been to events at the 123 farm and I always enjoy it.

The food options are fun and out of the ordinary. We enjoyed the lavender lemonade, carnitas tacos, and "lavender" sourdough mini donuts. I'd say the sourdough over-powered the lavender in the donut but the flavors of cinnamon and lemon were excellent. Note- wear appropriate shoes, this is an outdoor farm atmosphere you'll walk a lot and much of the terrain is uneven and has wood chips. There is a small tractor tour that looks cute, we didn't ride. We walked all through the place. As the night falls, the decorative lights begin to illuminate the gardens and paths making it beautiful and romantic. Highly recommended for any group of friends, a couple or family (maybe not small kids... as it's a lot of walking and not my idea of stroller friendly)

We noticed that depending on what day you go, the prices vary, but it really isn't too expensive. There are a ton of booths to check out selling anything from sourdough pizza to funnel cakes.

It is really beautiful and a fun experience, we definitely plan to go back before the end of October! I would just recommend wearing bug spray since it's outside.

Bring comfy shoes or boots as there is hardly any grass. There is also live music to enjoy, photo-booths, scavenger hunts, & shops to browse through. Highly recommended!

Admission was free and that was an automatic A+! There's ample free parking as well paid parking if you prefer to park inside the ranch itself. The event to me was very organized. We came a half hour early to beat the crowd. They handed out menus and maps of the vicinity. There are lots of seats available. Beer tents located in one area and food tents located in another area filled the air with amazing aroma from grilled sausages. There were awesome choices of homemade sausages such as bratwurst, chorizo and lamb sausages. European choices of sausages included Italian sausages, spicy Hungarian sausages, frankfurter, and Nürnberger bratwurst. We decided to order the Schiewnshaxe which was a baked pork shank served with a delicious sauerkraut. I don't like sauerkraut, but their sauerkraut was really tasty and slightly sweetened. The Schiewnshaxe was juicy, tender and full of flavor. We liked it so much we ordered it again for $13 a piece. There were other options of crazy hot dogs like Chicago style dogs and guacamole sriracha dogs to name a few. The dessert tents really caught my eye when I saw Lavender ice cream. Let me tell you... this is one of the best lavender ice cream I ever had! I wanted another scoop but I had to surrender from all the food we consumed. I am definitely coming back next year. This festival was family oriented with live music, games for both kids and adults and some kid activities for some fees. The staff were all friendly and helpful. When you're done eating, stop by the Organic Galleries. It's a collection of ten boutique farm shops offering goods from the farm. If you don't visit the galleries, you're missing out!

No cherries or foods with cherries anywhere. The rides shown were not there either. It's a complete bait and switch. Tickets cost 10.00 for 10 tickets and every game you wish to play was 10 tickets. Music was only thing that was advertised correctly. Tons of vendors selling stuff and that was probably the most interesting thing. But all was very expensive. It was like the hillbilly experience with Beverly Hills pricing. Complete waste of money and time. It was more of a traveling flea circus. Very disappointed. I'd suggest driving anywhere but here.

Snow-Line Orchards…read more SnowLine Orchards is one of those places my family and I have been visiting for years, especially during the fall and sometimes in the winter. They're known for their delicious donuts, but there's so much more to enjoy! One of the cool things is that you can sample different varieties of apples before deciding which ones to take home. They also have a great selection of wines. Peach Perfect and Black Bear were two of my favorites. I was hoping to grab Red Tractor, but unfortunately, it wasn't in stock this time. For you pickers, you can pick your own raspberries and apples for a small fee. It's a great place to slow down, relax, enjoy the scenery, and spend some quality time with family.

The U-Pick area of the farm is gorgeous with old frontier style buildings, lush forest and garden and of course, dozens of apple trees. There's a cider pressing machine, coffee bar and sitting areas to enjoy the day. And I would recommend getting the cider, which isn't carbonated but was more like the best apple juice I've ever had. The apple picking was $5 a pound, so my friend and I shared one bag. $12.50 for the apple picking experience + gorgeous views and exploring the farm was beyond worth it!

Low-key and charming, with some unique surprises. Chief among them, the craft apple cider cocktails. I got a mule and my daughter and wife got a tasty, smoky Bourbon revelation in a glass. (Well, actually a plastic cup, but I'd drink either out of a rusty hubcap they're that good.) "Would you like some ratatouille crostini to go with that?" "But of course!" (Best call I made all weekend!) Sit by the fire or find a spot of sun at one of the scattered tables. Walk around and explore. Go to the creek at the back of the property and listen to the water go burbling along over the rocks and through the brambles. We were there early (just short of 11 a.m.) so it wasn't too crowded. If you want a commercial experience, go to the Village or else where on the mountain. If you want something truer, go to Stone Soup Farm.

The tour is relatively short, but very informative, which is perfect for kiddos, and there's very few people compared to busy weekends! The activities such as panning for gemstones and candle dipping are very fun for the kids, and I cannot say enough good things about their new children's garden!

There's a good sized parking lot, though during apple-picking season and when it snows it can be a bit difficult to find a spot. Regardless, if you're in the area, it's a place definitely worth the visit.

Check the website or call the farms to see which orchards are open during your visit, or book a field trip. We've had a couple of locations closed on us when we arrived in the past. You can't go wrong with any of the apple farms. If you're looking for a specific type of apple, ask the staff and they'll be happy to point you in the right direction. Apple samples can also help determine what type of apples you want. Prices vary depending on the apple type, and a minimum weight requirement applies. At the heirloom Winesap orchard, there was a two-pound minimum. We enjoyed exploring and picking fresh fruit from the trees--a real treat for the whole family, especially the kids. Wear comfy shoes you won't mind getting dirty. The weekends can be terribly busy, so it's recommended to visit as early as possible or during the weekdays. Fall is also an excellent time of year to visit. There are plenty of places to eat and things to do around the area as well--a perfect place to spend the day or half a day.
