Not a very big farm, and there were lots of pickup buckets. Very nice view on the top of the hill. Local honey available, great taste.

Our visit to Copeland Cherry Ranch was absolutely wonderful. The cherries were fresh, sweet, and…read moredelicious, and the orchard was beautiful and well maintained. The staff was welcoming and friendly, making the entire experience enjoyable from start to finish. Whether you're picking your own fruit or just enjoying a day outdoors, this place offers a relaxing and memorable experience. We'll definitely be coming back next season. Highly recommend for families and anyone who loves fresh cherries!

Cate T pretty much covered it! Whahah I think after cherry picking together the first thing she did…read morewas go on the computer to write about this experience, a true fan of the organic cherries! =) Taking with owner Chari, I learned that this cherry ranch had first planted their trees about 9-10 years ago, and were first officially open in 2006. The next following years were hard due to the frost, she said they lost about 90% of their crops, but this year has been better due to a some new techniques. This place rocks compared to another cherry farm we visited before, the prices are cheaper, they round down to the nearest quarter and the cherries are better quality. At was at this farm that we got the bulk of our cherry harvest! Most of the trees are sweet, I know because I sampled so many of them XD! Haha I forget that you aren't supposed to eat the cherries like a cherry buffet, but pick them to put in your bucket to take home. This is hard to do when you are surrounded by glowing, red gems of deliciousness just shouting EAT ME!!! Ahhhhh okie dokies NOM NOM NOM NOM. =D I like the Utah Giants the best, they had good texture and were the perfect ripeness. The Tietons were extremely large in size but the texture was more like a plum, not as dense in the flesh. I was sad that the Ranier's weren't to perfect ripeness, but the few I sampled were already sweet enough. If anyone's going this weekend or the next you are in for a treat! I was partial to Ranier's but now coming to an awesome cherry ranch, I determined that I am a opportunistic cherry picker and will go for any type as long as it's yum. I bought a jar of their very own wildflower honey for $8, it's really fresh and has a nice aftertaste. Do take a sample if you are here, they can't call it organic since the bees fly around in a 2 mile radius and most other farms aren't organic. Very friendly environment, the owner and family are willing to show you were the best cherries are and explain how to tell the difference between all the varieties! Bring a hat because it gets hot. I also brought some water and a paper towel to wipe of the cherries, (i'm not bohemian enough to just eat them) they are covered in a thin layer of dust and maybe bird poop. =p

I haven't been back here since COVID occurred, but I'm so happy to have come back here to…read moreexperience cherry picking again! I came here with family on a weekend, and due to the large crop bloom, there was a BOGO deal going on this year where if you buy 1 bucket, you get another bucket free! It 's always extremely hot whenever we come here as it would be usually in the summer months. I suggest being prepared because you walk up a small incline in between rows of cherry trees, so being hydrated is necessary. Parking and entrance is free, instructions are given by staff and they lead you to where to go to begin picking. General rules include no eating the cherries inside, no yanking cherries off of branches (leaving stems behind help them grow again), and for the BOGO deal, you must fill up an entire bucket. Now, it can be pricey because it's currently at $6.50 a lb (.50 cents increase compared to pre-covid) and I think a bucket can contain at LEAST 10-12 lbs. So you need to shell out at least $65 in order to do the BOGO deal for example. A staff actually said that a bucket might cost about $85 each when I asked. We didn't do the deal because that would be too much for our small family, so I think this is optimal for large groups! We ended up paying $48 for our bucket and we went our ways. Good for a quick hour. Too long and you may overheat from the heat! - bring own water, bottles sold onsite are $2 each - local honey is also sold - 2 lbs minimum for adult to purchase - overall fun and unique experience! - always double check dates and times, sometimes they close at 1/2pm!

Quail Run Ranch is a unique and one-of-a-kind ostrich farm that is basically out in the middle of…read morenowhere. You might not realize how huge and dangerous some of these birds really are, but they average about 9 feet to 12 feet tall and from 250 to 350 pounds. And, they can be quite deadly. During the mating season, the males will instantly try to attack you if you get close. They've got about 6 to 10 different ostriches in separate fenced off areas. If you pay a few dollars for a tour, they will walk you down and show you the different ostriches they have, as well as provide some pretty interesting ostrich facts. Their feet are crazy as they are the only two toed bird on earth. Looking at them it is easy to see how they are related to dinosaurs because it looks just like a dinosaur foot. You can also buy ostrich eggs if they have them available, which are equal to about 24 to 36 eggs. The flavor and consistency is actually pretty good as well and very similar to chicken eggs. They also sell honey and a bunch of other things. Also, in certain times of year, you can go and see the baby ostrich chicks that they raise. If you're feeling adventurous, this is definitely worth a trip, especially if you have kids. This has become a fun stop we started making on our annual visit to the California Poppy Preserve in Antelope Valley. I would call ahead and see what's going on with tours and everything else. Five stars.

It's a little shop located in a strip mall with some tables and chairs inside and limited seating outside. Walked in and it seemed pretty quiet with just one other customer waiting for their orders. Customer service was just OK. Looked over their menu and decided to go with the turkey sandwich. Step one is picking your bread. They offer a variety of eight breads to choose from I went with whole wheat bread. Step two is picking your cheese and they have a variety of 16 cheeses to pick from I chose pepper jack. Step three is the condiments. I went with all and if there's anything you don't want, you can subtract it. The turkey sandwich I ordered was OK. They were very generous with the turkey. It came with all the vegetables and fixings, but I couldn't figure out what was giving it a salty taste. Should've went with a different selection of bread as the wheat bread was very, very dry and crumbly. Paired my turkey sandwich with jalapeño chips and a Coke.

It's open from 8am to 5pm daily with an all-star cast of incredible knowledgeable and caring individuals who help keep GTN great. Grab a wagon and load up because you won't know when to stop with some many great plants, deals on supplies and their inviting layout. As a small chain of garden centers meets plant nurseries I have to say this location stands out. Their online shop is easy also with get learning materials, newsletters , resources and even a plant library. I'll never forget my first trip here with my friend Sam, definitely need to hit her up again for a plant day, but absolutely still enjoy coming here with others and of course solo for some planty self-care. Adding some Elephant Bush (Portulacaria afra) friends to the plant family at home. Absolutely and 818/SFV/LA Valley favorite among many. You'll want to get lost between the many areas the have here and in the main area as well as their extended open air garden on the parking lot side. Staff here is very personable and extremely knowledgeable. From lawn and outdoor patio furniture or fixtures, fountains, decorations and plant care musts, GTN has a bit of it all. Even fun seasonal items and sales. Entrance in back, where you'll also find their parking lot, fairly spacious, but it can and does fill up on weekends. Restroom available for customers.

Location 4 stars: On the South side of Sherman Way, just East of Topanga Cyn Blvd, in Canoga Park. Plenty of free self-parking on their lot in the back. Venue 4 stars: Huge indoor and outdoor facility, with a big selection of plants, trees, fountains, pots, gardening tools, patio furniture, barbeques, you name it! You can spend hours there and not run out of things to check out. Selection 4 stars: Better than most other nurseries and of course hardware stores. Great options for decorative indoor and outdoor flowers and plants, shrubs, fruit trees, etc. etc. Prices 3.5 stars: For plants: Reasonable, better than say Lowe's or Home Depot. For furniture, fountains, etc: Expensive!
