I have been dying to go apple picking for years and relive some childhood memories. Finally, the…read moreday came! This is the only pick-your-own apple orchard within miles of the QC. We expected it to be overcrowded. Not at all! Everything is laid out so nicely. There are 2 sections - the pick-you-own orchard, and the barn/petting zoo. The pick-your-own orchard has a variety of different kinds of apples to pick. It is $1.50/lb, and a minimum of 20 pounds. You can rent a apple picker ($10 deposit), and they also have a tractor ride to the orchards if you want. It is CASH/CHECK ONLY - no credit cards here. They have a sign that is color coded so you know what trees are what variety, and also what rows they are in. The trees also have colored ribbons on them to match the sign. The trees had plenty of apples on them, and you can try them out to see if you like them. The barn is full of pre-picked apples, jams and preserves, apple butter, candies, caramel apples, apple cider, squash, gourds, pumpkins, and more! So many yummy things to choose from! They also have a petting zoo with chickens, goats, donkeys, rams, and an alpaca. You can feed the animals through the fence (they have feed you can purchase in the barn). The animals are friendly and will let you pet them. You can't go in the fence, but that's ok. The staff is really nice - I actually lost my ID while I was there and they found/returned it to me. A great family-run business! I will most definitely be returning!!

The Lash family and the people they hire are incredibly nice (and to my knowledge none of them smoke, so the people from the other review were not the owners nor the employees; it must've been a neighbor or another customer). We usually go on the days they have the food trucks and vendors, or in large groups with our church for a discounted price. This is a great place for your kids to play, run around, pick pumpkins, and even feed animals in the petting zoo/barn. I highly recommend this patch for anyone in search of a child- and customer-friendly space.

This is a FANTASTIC U-Pick farm! It has endless choices and a knowledgable and friendly staff! It…read moreis a superb, and inspiring, resource for FRESH and healthy eating (even feels a little rewarding). It is not geared towards a young children's amusement themed farm... But if you (and your family of all ages) are interested in fresh, high quality vegetables, and a huge selection, skip the grocery store. This is a lot more enjoyable! We are glad we found it, and our family who lives locally, will be back often!

Food was fantastic! Found my new local place. Everyone is kind as well. Fair prices for their food.read more

I personally talked with Brandy in catering, and Tina in the bakery. They couldn't have been more helpful. I wasn't exactly sure how much food to order, since this is the first time I had ever done this, and Brandy talked me into down sizing what I thought I needed, and I'm so glad she did, I would have had WAY to much food. It was delivered on time, and with the delivery drivers help, we were set up in no time. Everyone enjoyed the food, AND the CAKE. I live near Sycamore, Il, and I also talked with Roxanne in catering at the Sycamore store, who was also a great help guiding me with food that I purchased from that store. I would cater from Hyvee again!!! Some people are so quick to criticize , when things aren't perfect, but not give credit when it's good. I would give both stores a 10 star if I could.

We had flowers put on our arch and the chairs of the wedding aisle and then a beautiful pattern of white rose petals down the aisle. They were absolutely stunning! And I can't leave out my wedding bouquet, bridesmaid bouquets and the boutonnières! I was going for a very classy traditional look with some pop of the different blues and she just nailed it. She understood everything we were looking for and had great suggestions when I could not figure something out. Just a pleasure to work with! And so reasonably priced! And everything came out just like we pictured! I highly recommend! The flowers were such a great quality as well that we were able to go out the next day and day after to place some of our flowers at our grandparents Cemetary plots. Thank you so much for making our special day that much more special!
