    A visitor writes on October 13, 2008: "I was extremely disappointed by this farm and the pick-your-own pumpkin patch. The property itself was not well taken care of. There was "stuff" everywhere. From broken down farm equipment, to broken refrigerators and old farm trucks. The hayride left much to be desired. The distance was about 400 yards, lasted 10 minutes and included old tractors and combines as its only scenery. The pumpkin patch was hardly that. It was about 20 pumpkins randomly placed in a field. The pumpkins were already cut off the vine and it didn’t look like this was where the pumpkins were even grown. The only animals to be seen on the entire farm were a few pigs and they had an old tractor right in the middle of their pen. We purchased our sad little pumpkins and thought we might check out the produce building before we left, even though we were extremely dissatisfied with the hayride and pumpkin patch experience. The produce building/farmers market was not any better. The barn where all this was set up was full of JUNK!!! Literally full of it. I think out of the entire size of the barn, only about 25% was being used to sell produce, ever though you could see the piles and piles of stuff everwhere. There were lots of pumpkins and gourds to choose from but all the other produce looked pretty terrible. I was really looking forward to a nice fall day, with pumpkins and farm animals, and this place was AWFUL. I would not recommend it to anyone. "
    A visitor writes on October 14, 2008: "this place was not at all the way they make it sound! it was a mess i would not go back there. the place looked as if some had used it for a dump. i have to agree with the last note made this place is not what it is said to be. "

    A visitor writes, on August 17, 2008: "Been going there with my family for 25 years now. A good variety of stuff, but his prices are getting a little high compared to before. Does offer you pick and product is cheaper, naturally. He usually has everything you can imagine, and then some, when it comes to vegetables. However, do not go on a Sunday because there is no way he will sell or let you pick. Also, I have been there twice this year, and no one was working both times, so I am not sure what is going on"
