Back to Underwood Family Farms again for Strawberry picking! I do not know what it is, but these…read morestrawberries are some of the best I've had. Do they taste better because I picked them myself? I don't know! Yes? Regardless, they are delicious. The staff here is always so friendly and they are so welcoming to large groups. This is a great place to run the kids around and there are plenty of activities you can do for free or a small cost, like animal feeding, rides etc. My son loves all the playgrounds! Definitely recommend Underwood if you are looking for a party venue! The kids love it and it's a beautiful space!

I stop at their cute farm store to pick up fresh produce and see what goodies they offer. Everything looks so fresh and displayed very cute. I enjoy seeing what they offer seasonally and making new recipes at home from the seasonal produce i purchased. Sometimes it's a little pricey. That's the only downfall to me. I would buy more of its wasn't as expensive. But they do offer a punch card for frequent shoppers. I always make sure to use my punch card. I also enjoy walking to the side of the game stand and visiting the cute animals. It's a small little quick trip compared to the main farm but I always enjoy it.

My family and I drove out to see this place last weekend because we love animals and had heard…read moreabout it for years. We arrived to find parking along a busy highway (?!?), with golf carts shuttling visitors to and from the entrance, just a few feet away from cars whizzing past. That was weird. Then we got to the sort of holding area where they keep guests until their reservation time. Before we went in, the owner came out to greet us...sort of. She gave us a basic history of the place, but before she did, she wished us "happy pride" and told us all about how virtuous she was, as if everyone should be celebrating? Weird and inappropriate to say the least. The last thing she did before allowing us the entrance we'd paid handsomely for, was to lecture us about becoming vegans. Which is one of my biggest pet peeves about vegans to begin with. Then she stood at the entrance and offered everyone literature on veganism as we walked past. I declined. Wholly inappropriate, offensive and off putting. I didn't pay to be lectured about something I disagree with. It was nice to (finally) see and interact with the animals, but some of the volunteers were too much. I understand they're used to dealing with idiots every weekend, but some of the instructions they were giving were flat out dangerous, like having babies (maybe 18 months old) feed carrots to grabby, nippy horses. Bad idea when little hands aren't any bigger than the carrots. Most (not all) volunteers were just a bit too power trippy and under-educated for my taste. I will say the facilities were pretty clean and appeared well kept, but the horses and donkeys were filthy and in dire need of grooming. Give your visitors brushes and curry combs and show them how to brush the animals. Win-win for everyone. It was nice to hang out with the animals, but most of the people I could do without. Probably won't be back again.

Conejo Family Farm's Pumpkin Patch is the perfect spot to soak up all the fall vibes!…read more If you're looking for a relaxed, low-key day, weekdays are the way to go. But if you're in the mood for a lively atmosphere, weekends are buzzing with pop-up coffee stands, local beer stalls, and tons of happy families. I even heard they had over 5,000 guests in a single day last weekend -- such an incredible turnout for this Camarillo patch! Entry is $10 a person unless you're under the age of 5, then it's free. Once you step inside the grounds, the fun doesn't stop. From picking pumpkins (I snagged the cutest little white ones) to exploring the tall corn maze and strolling through the sunflower fields, there's something for everyone. At just $1 a stem, you can build your own sunflower bouquet, which makes this experience extra special. The kids will love the mini maze and bouncy houses, while adults can enjoy the festive energy and beer. Honestly, I had the best time and totally recommend adding it to your fall bucket list. Make sure to keep an eye on their Instagram or website as that's where you can find updating postings of specialized events and pop up. Reminder: the weekends are when they have the animal petting zoo, coffee stalls and beer garden. The weekdays appear to be more lowkey and don't have all of these options - but if you watch their website, they do have mid week events like yoga in the pumpkin patch etc.

No one was there even though they were open and we couldn't buy food. We stood by the sign for a bit, walked around, then realized we pot the cash in the big metal box and walk in. It's on the home system. We paid the $2 per person to go in. They only have a few animals there to pet but they all seemed nice and used to people. Most of them walked to us wanting to be pet. I only wished there was someone there so we could've gotten food to feed the animals. Iwould've given 5 stars if they had that. Overall for the price it was totally worth it. If they charged more I probably wouldn't have gone but for $2 totally worth it to the kids.

The tour lasts about an hour--just the right amount of time. Tina even joked about our group all wearing white tennis shoes...on a farm?! Happy to report back that the pens are so well maintained that we left with completely clean shoes! Thank you for a great experience!

We arrived on a Saturday afternoon. The olive oil tasting farm is located in a nice neighborhood area in downtown Los Olivos. There is parking accessible in the back parking lot and limited parking next to the olive oil tasting area and boutique shop. As soon as we parked and headed to the olive oil tasting area, we were greeted by a very friendly and hospitable staff member. I appreciated all the information she told us about the property and instructions about the olive oil tasting experience. Their complimentary olive oil tasting was unique and unlike any other olive oil tasting I had ever done before. There were 10 different olive oils to taste from. You are given a freshly made sourdough bread slice to go along with a tray with a menu sheet of all the olive oils. Some of the olive oils that stood out to me were the white truffle, garlic, and Italian honey. We were then encouraged to explore the rest of the property where there was a charcuterie cart, pottery vendor, and complimentary wine tasting on the other side of the premises. This enhanced our olive oil tasting experience even more. The rest of the property was beautiful as there were a lot of tables and chairs for guests to enjoy. Overall we enjoyed our experience at Olive + Lavender Farms. The staff were nice and accommodating. The vibe was relaxing and inviting. The boutique shop were selling a lot of wonderful and distinctive local products in the area. The olive oils price point are in the higher end. Next time we are in the area we would love to come back.
