The entire market is exceptionally clean, well-organized, and beautifully laid out, making it a joy to walk through whether you're picking up dinner or spending the day out with the family for their corn maze, pumpkin patch, or potato launching. Between the fresh gourmet produce, cheeses, and meats, the marketplace is fully stocked, and their selection of ready-to-heat homecooked meals is a lifesaver on busy nights. You definitely can't leave without visiting the bakery section. Fresh breads, colossal decadent brownies, fresh local cow's milk, and Wilson-grown berries are absolute staples that never disappoint. The service is mostly solid, though a bit mixed depending on who you interact with. The staff stocking the floor and managing the displays are consistently friendly, approachable, and happy to help you find what you need. The cashier and bagging team can be a bit hit-or-miss...at times, they can seem a little disengaged and ready for their shift to end, but it's a minor downside to an otherwise fantastic visit. Overall, it's a top-tier local gem for great food and fun community events.

I recently visited Belkin Family Lookout Farm, and overall it was a pleasant experience ,…read moreespecially with a group of students. Here's a breakdown: What worked well / strengths The staff were extremely kind and helpful. The grounds and orchards were well maintained and offered enjoyable scenery and walking paths.The cider donuts are outstanding. There are plenty of activities in the orchards, which my students enjoyed. What could improve... The food offerings were not ideal. The quality felt closer to a school lunch standard, but with a price tag higher than expected. As for the cider itself, I'm not a huge fan of it generally, so I can't strongly endorse that part of the menu. Prices for picking or admission can feel steep even for a group rate. Belkin / Lookout Farm is a lovely destination with lots of charm, especially for seasonal visits and orchard-based activities. If you're going primarily for the cider or food, temper expectations. But if your goal is to have students enjoy the orchard, fall vibes, fresh donuts, and outdoor experience, it delivers well.

I haven't been back in a long time and went on a weekday and boy was it different since kids are back in school. It was relatively quiet but still happy they were open and no lines or crowds. You no longer pay by weight. You pay per person at $37/adult and they give you a tiny bag to fill up with apples, pears, peaches and other fruits they have. If you want to purchase another bag it is $15! Parking is complimentary and there is no train, we had to walk! Not sure if that is just because it is a weekday and not a weekend. We did get some Asian pears, peaches, nectarines and apples. At the end we bought Apple cider and donuts at the market.

A super cute farm to visit, but be sure to check the hours on their website before you come!…read more On a super hot Saturday, my boyfriend and I saw that the farm was open (according to Yelp and Google) and decided to make the trek to see some alpacas! When we arrived though, we found out that the farm is usually closed during the summer (unless you email the owner in advance) and that their website is the only reliable site to see the hours! Luckily, the owner was around and super nice and gave us a tour anyway! There were goats, a mini horse, a mini donkey, and an alpaca herd worthy of the trek we took! All the animals were really friendly, and the owner was incredibly informative. The highlight was probably an extra cuddly mini donkey that ran to my boyfriend and insisted on being pet! Overall - it was a fun adventure and I highly recommend it! I'm sure it's even better once the weather is cooler!

Alpacas shearing happened already (spring) so if you want to see them with full fur, staff told us to return in Nov. They are still cute :) Tour runs 45 mins long and we get to feed and pet them. I am so bad with names but I know one is called Summer. Two pregnant mamas and one baby on the ranch! On the way out, please put a donation in the jar or make a purchase at the store. Plenty of cute socks, sweater, etc. Please note that you will smell alpaca spit (or musty odor) when you enter the shop/ranch and even after you depart. Don't wear fancy clothes.

Definitely a must visit if you're in the area. They do free 1 hour long tours, but donations are welcome. Make sure to make a reservation so they know you're coming.

The animals were also a big hit - horses, bunnies, goats, geese, and mules can be seen up close. The music and food also do not disappoint.

A bit on the pricey side but you do get a ton of crispy fries and even the black bean veggie burger was solid. Not to mention there is a full bar there.
