Back to Underwood Family Farms again for Strawberry picking! I do not know what it is, but these…read morestrawberries are some of the best I've had. Do they taste better because I picked them myself? I don't know! Yes? Regardless, they are delicious. The staff here is always so friendly and they are so welcoming to large groups. This is a great place to run the kids around and there are plenty of activities you can do for free or a small cost, like animal feeding, rides etc. My son loves all the playgrounds! Definitely recommend Underwood if you are looking for a party venue! The kids love it and it's a beautiful space!

What's up: First time here! We were making our way up towards Ojai and planned to stop here for…read moretheir delicious strawberry picking. Parking: Plenty of free parking on their dirt lot. Pick an open spot and park right there. Environment: After paying for admission, we got to explore the animal portion of the area. There were many different animals to see and you can also purchase food to feed them. There are also swings and slides in this area. Some areas will require extra tickets that you can purchase separately. We had a quick look around and then headed on over to the tractor-drawn wagon ride which took us over to the strawberry fields. It's a pick yourself experience and there are boxes and bags that you can grab to fill up (the best thing is that you can sample them while you pick). There are also various vegetables that you can pick as well. We wanted to check out some of the bok choy, but they were not available, boo. Once you're done, head back to the front Farm Market near the entrance and pay for your items. I will say that their strawberries are juicy and sweet! What was ordered: - Admission (Weekday: $8.00, Weekend & Holiday: $12.00) - Pick your own strawberries ($3.50/lb) Yay/Nay/Meh: Yay. This was a fun experience. We got to see some of the various farm animals and then we got to pick our strawberries. A fun experience with some yummy strawberries to sample and take home. Credit cards are accepted.

This place is super cute and the staff is just wonderful. They are passionate about their alpacas and love them. They are well cared for and cute as can be. The grounds are in a lovely area and the place is kept clean. They has a little store and they have the most wonderful Alpacas. They are just so cute and they are super gentle. Your kids will love seeing them. The Alpacas have lots of space and they all seem to get along. It is sad to see this place go. We will miss it.

Our tour guide, Julie was great at going over the do's and don't of being around them. Also, she shared beautiful stories of how this all started and information about Alpacas. They were all so cute and well behaved (didn't get spit on) haha. I apologize that I can not recall the name of the great woman who showed us how their coats are handled. I think I was so intrigued with what she was sharing that I didn't catch her name. With that said, it actually was my favorite part! If in the area, I would recommend booking this! Great for all ages :)

The Big Red Barn has a lot of fresh fruit, baked goods, and other treats to choose from. The real fun is when you pick the fruit yourself though. We got ourselves some sweet blackberries to take home. Out on the farm, we had the best tractor ride and learned some fun facts about fruits, as well as slid on the huge slide and played some outdoor games. While we were here, we ate some oakie pies. My favorite is thanksgiving dinner. It tastes just like November-- Turkey, stuffing, potatoes, and gravy. They have other tasty savory pies like the chicken pot pie, blueberry pulled pork, and the breakfast pie. Of course, you could get some sweet ones too! The service is very friendly and the farm truly has fun for everyone! I can't wait to come back for stone fruit season.

Took a side quest here on the way to Yosemite and it was worth it! I would have given 5 stars but I…read morecan't get over entry fees to a farm...$10.99pp ages 4+. If you decided to pick fruit you pay by the pound at the end which is reasonable but the fee per person just to walk around seemed on the high end. They have goats, chickens, peacocks, a variety of birds, chickens and roosters and cool art displays. We saw signs for paintballing and hayrides though I didn't see any wagons operating. The main reason we stopped was to try the Okie Pies. I had never heard of them and I am always looking to try new things. They remind me of a large empanada or handheld meat pie. We tried 3 savory and 1 dessert Okie Pie. They were out of blueberry so we settled for Apple and it was good but super sweet. I love desserts and unless you're a diehard apple pie fan you may find this to be too sweet. Savory flavors were salsa verde, chicken pot pie, and blueberry BBQ pork. The blueberry BBQ sounds odd but it was everyone's favorite. Everyone was very friendly and there was even someone who let the kids pet the goats and roosters. We'll stop on the way back home for more blueberry BBQ Okie Pies.

I am sad about the bad reviews here because I had a chance to talk to the owners who run it, and…read morethey are the nicest people. They work really hard to run the pumpkin patch, and have normal jobs the rest of the year. There are people complaining about pricing, but its an expensive operation to have open. There were a ton of bounce houses so that my 2 kids weren't bored. The owners also told us that we could come back all day (and night) and the amount we paid for the use of the bounce houses covered that. Overall I had a great time and I know my kids did too.

It's right off of Carson Street across the street from the Town Center more so across from Sam's Club. It is hidden and it's a perfect hidden gem for little ones. It seems that you are able to have picnics and parties here of course with reservations ahead of time. The animals and the petting zoo were so sweet and the staff was very friendly. The highlight of the trip was the pony rides.

I smell like a barnyard? Of course, because I was feeding goats & sheep at Barnyard Buddies…read more For $6 admission (at the time)(Groupon deals, as well), visitors to Barnyard Buddies can feed goats & sheep, and pet various animals. Buying a medium sized container of feed was more than enough, IMHO. Visitors are required to feed only the goats & sheep from the other side of the enclosure. Without feed, visitors can enter the closure & pet/brush the animals. Besides the goats & sheep, there are 2 pigs, chickens, and in a separate enclosure, emus & a cow. No access allowed to those, however. Pony rides are an option for little kids. The ride is around an oval track. There is also a playground area to burn up some energy. A few handwashing stations on premises to stay hygienic during your visit. Barnyard Buddies is an accessible nearby barnyard experience. I was lucky enough to grow up around chickens, so I'm not new to livestock. It's my firm belief kids should be around animals, and know where their food comes from, whether it be eggs, milk and/or meat. While not a place I'd recommend traveling large distances to visit, for those nearby or whom happen to be in the area, Barnyard Buddies is a wonderful opportunity to feed enthusiastically hungry goats & sheep, and brush plump piggies. Highly recommend!

Admission was only $6 per person, and children under 2 are free, which makes it an affordable outing for families. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived. They answered our questions and gave us information about the farm. The barn is on the smaller side, but there were still plenty of animals to see, including ponies, goats, chickens, and sheep. Outside, we also saw a turkey, horses, cows, and a pig. We visited around 11:30 a.m. on a Friday, and at one point we had the entire barn to ourselves, which made it especially enjoyable with our little one. Storytime for little ones is offered on Tuesdays and Fridays at 10:30 a.m. After visiting the animals, we explored the produce market and were impressed by the variety. They had fresh fruits and vegetables, delicious pastries, breads, jams, and lots of other tasty snacks to browse. If it's your first visit, I'd recommend going during one of their scheduled activities so you can experience the tractor ride as well. There was plenty of parking, and I appreciated that they had a changing table available for babies and toddlers, which made the visit even more family-friendly. Overall, it was a relaxing, low-key outing that's perfect for families with young children. We had a wonderful time and will definitely be back to experience more of what Tanaka Farms has to offer!
