About the Market

Background

The farm has become a local favorite, known for its 100-acre U-pick operation featuring over 85 varieties of fruits, vegetables, herbs, and flowers. It has also gained fame for its Homegrown Mini-Golf, which includes a Guinness World Record-holding giant garden gnome. The farm has been a hub for community activities, including educational school tours and birthday parties, emphasizing agricultural heritage and outdoor fun.

Practices

The farm operates a greenhouse to kick off the season with flowering annuals and vegetables. They offer a wide range of Pick-Your-Own crops, starting with asparagus and strawberries, followed by sugar snap peas, corn, and other vegetables and flowers. In the fall, the focus shifts to apples, raspberries, and pumpkins. The farm market provides top-quality, homegrown produce throughout the growing season.

The Rest

Visitors can enjoy a variety of activities such as mini-golf in a tasting garden, a jumping pillow, a petting zoo, and a corn maze. The farm also hosts educational tours where children can milk a cow and learn about farming, and offers hay rides for a hands-on outdoor experience. The giant garden gnome serves as a landmark and a popular attraction.
