We ended up gathering a Turkey wrap, broccoli cashew salad, and tomatoes for our dinner. They also sold a variety of soups and salads, kombuchas, fresh cut flowers, oats for breakfast and more. The broccoli cashew salad was fresh and delicious. I was a little bummed that the Turkey was but fresh cut and appeared to have preservatives/lunch meat texture. The staff we encountered were friendly and it was a great visit overall.

The fresh raspberries were so tasty and fun to pick. The blackberries were minimal on my visit but those that I found were good and flavorful. Not sure of organic, but all berries were pesticide free and oh so tasty. They have roaming chickens in the fields and they were pretty friendly/annoying you as you pick :) Farmer Mike was super friendly and welcoming to his farm. Note that they have Isham Farms on both sides of the road. The berries are up the driveway by the Sugar Shack were they make maple syrup in March/April of each year.

We visited Isham for a wedding weekend and were blown away by its beauty!…read more For the rehearsal dinner, there was a very relaxed BBQ, complete with a berry picking. The bride and groom were allowed to bring in all of their own food and beverages, which made for a low-key, easy event. The wedding day included wagon rides through the fields - and another full, fun evening. I can't speak to whether the food and service are recommended/provided through the farm but it was a wonderful, tasty, family-style meal; and, the bartenders and other servers were friendly and fast. Farmer Mike himself is a also very friendly and clearly proud of his beautiful property. Oh, and his berries, honey, and syrup are all some of the best I've had. Overall, I would highly recommend Isham for DIY berry picking with the family or the entire property for an event.

I have to mention the deli first: there's a lady who works here and we saw on every visit, and she was incredibly helpful and generous. The hot and sweet corn salad she recommended was a night, and the cauliflower tabuleh was surprisingly enjoyable. Then there's the incredible rotisserie chicken which is unbelievably tender and keeps incredibly well - easily the best supermarket-bought rotisserie chicken I've ever had. Their aisles are clean and prices competitive, and it was easy to find what we needed because aisles were clearly marked. Even at different times of day there was no excessive wait at checkouts either, and we'd be happy to shop here again in the future!
