Inside the shop you will find a variety of country items. The fresh baked pumpkin donuts are delicious. Lots of apples, apple cider and other jams & candies to pick from. The outdoor play ground is wide open and ready for fun. Kids get introduced to some farm items to play on that you won't get at school. The area is wide open so kids can run from thing to thing. There isn't much seating for adults that get tired out or for long stays! Most things are in moderately good repair.

It was extremely hot on this day and everything was sitting in the open, I still tried some of them that I fought the bees for. I purchased some of the Terrapin Ridge goods and also purchased a couple bags of their apples. It looked like you could try the apples too but all of those containers were empty. They had been open a few hours. I do not have young children so I did not try any of the outside activities. I have an orchard much closer that I love so I likely will not come back soon.

The meeting with Santa was one of the best experiences we've ever had with a Santa Claus! They have a separate Santa Shack and families can go in one at a time so it's a more intimate and meaningful experience than having a line of people crowded behind you while you're trying to talk to Santa. The Santa was so jolly and sweet and my kids were all smiles the entire time. We had time to take pictures without a crowd around which we really enjoyed as well, and I'm definitely making these shots our family Christmas cards for the year! I'd love if there was a way for the farm to cover the train and tractor with a clear tarp if possible so that it wouldn't be so cold while you're looking at the lights. But also understand that you will be outside on about a 20 minute ride while you enjoy the lights so make sure you bundle up!

Drove 40 minutes to attend the kick off to the Autumn season. The mood was very 'whomp whomp'. At…read moreother farms in the area the Autumn season felt 'festive' - with music playing, decorations and smiling staff. Piney Acres seemed not quite ready for visitors. First, the pricing for entrance at the register didn't state what was charged for children under 16. Instead I paid the adult price for myself and two kids under age 6. The farms website says children up to age three pay $5. My son just turned three. Not a huge deal but kind of annoying. For $30 we couldn't go on the train or the big slide or the fossil dig. We could go on the cow train but I never found anyone standing near it. Did I have to go find someone? I still have no idea. My son wanted to do it. The fun things we did do were play in the 'sand' (more like fine gravel) play area, see the pigs and goats and pick pumpkins to buy. One thing we wanted to do but didn't was the bounce pad. It was filthy! Covered in sun baked mud. My oldest was really disappointed. The staff here were nice when we interacted with them, but they all seemed very preoccupied with talking amongst one another. I waited quite a while to have someone tally up my pumpkin order. No one seemed to know who was in charge of that task. I will say I bought a fair number of pumpkins and was fully expecting the total to be over $50 and it was only $29. So I guess I am calling it even on the overcharge for entry.

Think sheep, goats, peacocks, chickens, ducks and so on... Make sure you get some feed for the animals before you enter, you will want to feed them for sure. There are animals in enclosures as well as some free roaming piggies, chickens and cats. Make sure you close the gates when going from one section to the next. Don't forget to visit the apartment pigs. Those poor souls grew up in apartments and do not roam outside because they have never been outside. The poor things. Any of the caretakers there can and will tell you loads of stories about the various animals. Very interesting and varied backgrounds. Make sure to stop by the giftshop for some unique gifts, especially piggie themed. There are also always special events on the calendar and when in bloom, you can also pick your own flowers and pay by stem. I highly recommend a visit here with or without the kids. Just make sure you wear shoes and clothing you don't mind getting dirty.

They responded to all of my emails with the questions I had very quickly. The cabin sits off the side of their house w/ a porch looking out towards the farm. The inside of the cabin has two open bed rooms that are adjoining w/sliding doors that open up to a closet area between the two. While the cabin doesn't have central a/c there is a machine that works as an a/c, a heater, and a dehumidifier. We visited during the summer and this kept the cabin cool. The main room has a couch/trundle bed so you can sleep an extra 2 guests, as well as a dining table (plates, cups, utensils and some cookware available to use). I suggest bringing what you need as far as cooking utensils go, however Jennifer helped us get whatever we needed that we didn't bring. There is a sink, a microwave and a full size fridge, and while there isn't an oven/stove there is a griddle in the cabin that worked very well for us and a grill outside available to use. There were towels and rags for us in the bathroom which was nice since that's just one less thing we had to tote along with us. There is a great one person, jacuzzi tub that I called dibs on as soon as I got there. Very relaxing. Outside there is also a fire pit with bench seating, great for s'mores or telling scary ghost stories. Do yourself a favor and opt in for the hands on farm experience! Gather eggs, milk a goat and/or sheep, help feed the animals and get to meet them one on one, Alpacas, pigs, miniature horses, donkeys, chickens, ducks, goats, sheep! Not only is is fun but interesting. You'll learn all kinds of info about each and running a farm. We also got farm fresh duck and chicken eggs that we made for breakfast in the morning, YUMMY! We're hoping to come back for their fall festival if we're still in the area. Thanks again for hosting us, we are so appreciative of everything you guys did to make sure we had a wonderful experience.

The farm is perfect for all ages and there were so many fun activities to do for kids and adults. The first thing my friends and I did was get food at the food station. I got a "spooky milkshake", which was delicious (not pictured). They had a choice between vanilla and chocolate soft serve ice cream and it was topped with whipped cream, a donut hole, and a brownie bite. It was very sweet and delicious. It seemed like a lot of people were buying those milkshakes. Then we moved on to the animal barn which was a ton of fun. They had a cow, pigs, chickens, ducks, a bunny, goats, lambs, and even a donkey! You weren't allowed to feed the animals, but you were allowed to pet them and they had a huge bottle of hand sanitizer for people to wash their hands after petting the animals. The animals were gentle and friendly, so parents delt parents felt safe for their kids to pet the animals. Next, we went through a corn maze, and they had a "big" corn maze and "small" corn maze. For the big corn maze, the farm does a different intricate design every year. This year, I believe it was a tractor. They even have signs and QR codes to scan so you could track how far along the maze you are as well as track how long you've been in the corn maze. Then we went on the tractor ride. While this was relaxing, it was very slow and there weren't a ton of beautiful farm views. At one point, we were riding along next to a highway, so that took away from the farm experience a little bit. I also thought they were going to do a bunch of stops at vegetable or pumpkin gardens if even flower patches, but they did not, which I was surprised about considering each hay ride was about 30 minutes long. I would recommend the hay ride to people who want a break from exploring the farm and want to give their feet a rest. After the hay ride, my friends and I decide to check out the gift shop, and they had a lot of stuffed animals, branded shirts and sweatshirts, cookie cutters, and candles that smelled heavenly. Next to the gift shop, they had more activities for people to do. One of the farm's main selling points is their story about Spookley the Square pumpkin. In this space they also set up a backdrop for people to take pictures and a "design your own pumpkin" station where they provide different shapes for eyes, noses, and mouths and you can pick and choose to color in each shape. Near the corn maze, there were a bunch of activities including a giant bounce pad, signs which different games to play (such as "find the corn [popcorn, cornpipe, corn dog, etc]", mazes, and "find the difference"), basketball, a small train for children to ride, human foosball, and a hay tower for people to climb. This pumpkin farm is great for families and friends to attend to have the perfect fall day. They also have a similar experience during the wintertime if you check out their website.

There is a line to buy tix then you grab scissors to cut your own tulips if you want them $2 a tulip. Some of them were dying so they weren't a perfect bloom for a bouquet. The line to pay for tulips was kind of long as well. We spent a couple hours here looking and taking photos. We looked around first before deciding to go back to cut so we lost some time with that.

When I think of orchards, I tend to reflect fondly back on school field trips and my childhood in…read moregeneral. That feeling was alive and well at Greenfield, Indiana's Tuttle Orchards. This 200-acre establishment offers around 50 acres of apples, 30 acres of vegetables, 20-25 acres of pumpkins, and a greenhouse among other options. There's a small cafe here. There's U-Pick apples, of course, along with U-Pick pumpkins. There's flowers galore, a variety of food items, exhibits classes, tours, and more. They take credit cards (no WIC or SNAP). There's no general admission to get into Tuttle. There's also no parking fee. There are fees for certain activities, and there are obviously fees for items that are sold. There are over 2,000 items in their farm store. I'm a definite fan of the donuts. Yeah, I know. What kind of weirdo goes to an orchard and gets a donut? Me. I'm that weirdo. More than 90% of their plants sold are grown right at the orchard. Tuttle has been around since the early apple trees were planted in 1928. It's now fourth generation Tuttle, though the owners are actually named Roney at this point (but still in the family). Accessibility? Better than expected and obviously intentional. Perfect? Nope. It's an orchard. No orchard will be perfectly accessible, but it's quite good and employees are helpful as much as able. Parking lot offers parking options. They've worked with disabled students, and the hayride is wheelchair accessible. The pumpkin patch is a dirt path, however, for the most part I found it workable. Some may need assistance. The only accessibility issue in most places would be the crowds, as Tuttle can get quite packed - especially on weekends. Tuttles does ask for advance notice for those with disabilities if possible, especially for groups, so guides can adapt material as needed for age/developmental level. Overall, I really enjoyed this visit. It wasn't my first time to Tuttle, though I'd never remembered it well enough to be comfortable reviewing it. After a recent visit, I remembered why I always enjoyed it so much. It was more accessible than expected, everyone was friendly, and a side benefit is really watching all the kids around you have such a good time. There's a reason so many consider an orchard visit a fall tradition. Tuttle Orchard is a great place to start that tradition with your friends and family.
