2nd year in a row getting out tree here. Friendly staff and great selection of trees!read more

We have been coming here for the past 3 years (since we found them) and we found this place just…read morebefore dark after a long day of looking for a tree late in December. We have 2 sons in the military and have always cut a tree down as a family since the boys were born. It has become more difficult each year but because the owners of this farm are SO WONDERFUL they have accommodated us and helped keep our tradition alive. We cannot explain in words their generosity and compassion (and support of the military) We will buy a tree here until they don't have any left ! Thank you so much

If you're looking for a fall outing that's calm, charming, and refreshingly low-key--this is your…read morespot. It's not massive or frantic like some of the big-name places (yes, Severs, we're looking at you), and best of all: admission is free. Now, if you're a die-hard corn maze enthusiast, you might want to look elsewhere. This place skips the maze madness--and honestly, that's a win. Corn mazes are often overpriced and overhyped (still looking at you, Severs). And petting zoos? Also not here. They tend to be germy, full of animals that are prone to bite, and they'll soak you for the cost of the feed. Hard pass. No pig races either. No long lines. Just simple, cheap fun. It's the icing on the pumpkin cake So if you want to make joyful memories with your kids, wander through pumpkin fields, and soak up the season without the stress of a State Fair vibe, you're in the right place. What Free Admission Gets You: --A fresh corn pit (changed out yearly--unlike the dusty ones at larger venues) --Playground with slides, swings, large sandboxes, and rocking horses --Tons of photo ops for the whole family Extras: --Face painting --Specialty coffees and indoor snacks --Food trucks, mini donuts, snackable items (large iced coffee with cream was $3.5) A wide selection of reasonably priced gourds, field pumpkins, and large potted mums; also offer indian corn, rushes, hand-painted pumpkins and hay rides in October. Prices: Small gourds: $1.50 Medium fancy: $5 Any field pumpkin: $6 LARGE potted mums: $20 Full-size straw hay bales: $8 The pumpkins are impressively grown--many are flawless and some are downright huge. You won't have to search far to find your perfect pick. Just note: this was the last weekend of September, so selection may thin out as Halloween approaches but boy they have a lot of pumpkins. Final Touches: --Friendly staff --Clean porta-potties --Handwashing station with real running water and soap --Dogs welcome (on leash) This is the kind of fall magic we can all get behind that won't break your bank.

Whoa. This place is succulent city…read more My friend is getting married in a couple of weeks and is making her own bouquets and arrangements for the tables (yes, she's crazy). She tracked down Greenworld because they sell their cuttings at much cheaper prices than you'd find at a florist. On Saturday morning, four of us hopped in a car stocked with Isles puppy dog tails and coffee and shlepped ourselves to North Branch to check it out and pick out which cuttings she wanted for the arrangements. You have to make an appointment during their off-season---they are not open to the public otherwise. I've NEVER seen so many succulents in one place. Mainly, the greenhouse is full of hundreds of kinds that I had never seen ever. Strange rose-mimicking plants, bright orange and purple colors, furry friends, snowball cacti... and a new kind of aloe plant that looks like a cylon basestar (nerd alert). See photo: http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/greenworld-greenhouse-north-branch?select=TLWUoAhWW9BCHHh4jCkTIg#TLWUoAhWW9BCHHh4jCkTIg The owner is super chatty, but also informative about how to take care of the plants and when would be the earliest to put the bouquets together. For example, did you know that you are supposed to clip succulents fairly often and then replant the clippings. Otherwise some of them just get tall and sad. He was nice enough to make cuttings for a wedding inspiration board, so to speak. We messed around with combinations of different plants for a while and then let him know what the plan was. After that, I roamed the aisles again and picked our some new additions to my own succulent family (I've covered my whole bay windowsill with them). I picked our four good size plants that were only $5 each and not things you'd typically see in a store. Normally, they do accept credit cards, but it's cash or check during the off-season. The cylon plant has shown no signs of attacking the other plants, but there are many copies... and they have a plan.

Inside and across the front porch they have plenty of gift items including seasonal decor, some clothing, bird feeding and pet supplies, kitchen items, food, candy and much more. In the bird feeding collection they have many types of feeders, supplies and seeds. We have never had such spoiled birds especially with the Wayne's seed mix - they get into that like nothing else we have ever tried! Stop in and meet the friendly staff, I think it might become a regular drive and stop for you too.

Put the birdseed out right away and the birds LOVE it! Bought two different types of mixes - both are high quality with seeds that the birds want to eat. The dogs also are enjoying their dog bones. The minute I take the bag out and open it up, all four dogs are sitting around me waiting for their treat! We will be back again for more bird seed and dog bones!

Ridiculous prices. Bad Materials…read more save yourself the trouble and go to Peterson Companies or anywhere else. I only ever go here when im in a crunch. because the prices are so much higher than anyone else. I recently bought fill dirt from here for $25 a yard. ($3.50 at Peterson) I know fill dirt isn't the best dirt and I wasn't expecting good dirt. But what I got was nothing short of garbage. there was old fabric, lots of big roots, chunks of sod, and mulch! And not a small amount of it either, at least 50% of what I got was one of these things. Bottom line, save yourself the time and money and go somewhere else.

I admit my son found one and picked it up, but I was watching them very closely the whole time and they most certainly did not steal 4 stakes. It was really the rude tone the worker took with me that bothered me more than anything. On the other hand, there WAS one young girl that was extremely helpful with picking out trees with us. 2) They told us our trees would be delivered in 3-5 business days and it took over 3 weeks to get them. I was about ready to call my credit card company and cancel on the purchase. Again, the trees are beautiful, it would've just been nice to not leave with a bad taste in my mouth and get them in the promised timeframe.

A Wholesome Fall Outing That'll Make You Feel Like You Just Won the Pumpkin Super Bowl…read more If you're looking for a place that's got more heart than hype, this little gem is your ticket to autumnal joy. It's low-key, no-frills, and exactly the kind of spot with a "a vibe." You can meander through pumpkin fields like you're starring in your own feel-good movie, and the corn maze? Oh, it's a delightful hour-long wander that feels less like getting lost and more like finding your inner peace. The owner-operator is the real MVP--kind, knowledgeable, and clearly someone who knows their gourds from their grain. You'll feel welcomed, not upsold. And the prices? Let's just say they're friendlier than a golden retriever at a tailgate. Cost Breakdown (approx.): 9 pumpkins (including 3 specialty stunners) 3 adult + 1 child corn maze entries Total: $52 That's a steal, folks and kind of rare Bonus Points: Not crowded during MEA (Minnesota's fall break) Plenty of parking A few charming photo ops--perfect for capturing memories or just proving to your group chat that you do, in fact, leave the house.

Definitely an enjoyable experience, even when cold! They had fires going to warm up at, and free cider! We did the pick your own tree, and they make it as easy as possible for doing that. The shaking of the tree is a game changer too- so many less needles at time of set up! My sister did mention that prices are increasing (just like everywhere else so to be expected) but says it's still worth it the extra expense!

They have precut trees or cut your own. Tons of spots for family pictures. They have hot apple cider for free, Santa and tootsie rolls for kids. My favorite part is the bonfire and all the spots for photos and different wreaths and items for sale. The trees are a bit pricey but it includes the shaking, bailing and putting on your car for you. They were so fast and it was so convenient and easy!
