our name and uses .farm extension: they copied my work and do NOT even update
the info! I make updates EVERY day. Obviously, I cannot check
every farm every day, but I do check as many as I can every day, and respond to
all requests. They don't. Don't support the scammers!
Remember to always check with the farm's own website or Facebook
page before you go - or call or email them if they don't have a website or
Facebook page. Conditions at the farms and crops can change literally
overnight, so if you want to avoid a wasted trip out there - check with
the farm directly before you go!

add a farm, please let me know!

Comments from a visitor on September 11, 2011: "This is a very nice small farm if you
want to pick good apples and visit a farm stand without all the bells and
whistles and extra costs. I like it because they charge by the pound so we
only get the amount we really want. I stop by often with my boys during the
season so we always have fresh crisp apples. The trees are right behind the
stand so its an easy walk. It also has a nice farm stand with a good variety
of fresh fruit and vegetables. Super fresh corn is picked in the fields and
delivered directly to the stand as it runs low. They often have bakery items
also available. The people who own it also run the stand they are very nice
and friendly. "

Comments from a visitor on October 14, 2008: "We went to Boston Hill this
weekend (Oct 13th), and it was perfect for my 9-year-old "Little Sister"
from the Big Sister program. The apples were easy picking, since all the
trees are dwarf trees, they were absolutely delicious, and the pumpkins were
easy to pick out from the field. There was a hay ride for those who didn't
want to walk, a playground she absolutely loved, animals to pet and look at,
ice cream, and a bakery with home-made apple donuts. We had a good time!"

"Keep in mind, this is owned by the city government, so they are going overboard with the COVID paranoia outdoors. Worldwide there are no documented and
verified cases of COVID transmission outdoors, so says the CDC. "
Comments from a visitor on August 18, 2011:
"We just visited Brooksby Farm to pick peaches this morning, August 18,
2011. There were a lot of peaches on the trees, but we had to look carefully
to find many that were ripe. A 1/2 peck is $8.00. We weighed ours at home
and it comes to about 6 1/4 lbs. Bags need to be purchased at the farm stand
before entering the you-pick area."

Comments from a visitor on August 05, 2011: "I have
taken my family there for about 6 years for apple picking and each year I
look forward to going there. They care about the produce they grow first and
foremost. The quality of their apples is always excellent and their fields
are kept clean and orderly with markings so you can tell what varieties are
in which rows. They also have a corn maze, chickens and goats for the kids
to feed, and a tractor ride out to the fields. They have a little bakery in a
barn that makes and sells different baked goods but try their cinnamon-sugar
cider donuts. They are delicious! The only negative I could say is that if
you don't go early for the apples you have to hike up the hill and it is
steep."
Comments from a visitor on July 19, 2011: "My boyfriend and I
went to Cider Hill Farm this past weekend, and found it as charming and fun
and welcoming as our first time last year. The red and black raspberry
picking was fantastic, the shop had many tasty treats, and the staff was
wonderfully helpful. You pick on the honor system - no one is hovering to
make sure you're not sampling. We even enjoyed some refreshing beverages and
farm-made treats (cider donuts and strawberry-chocolate muffins -
YUUMMMM!!!) in their picnic area before leaving. We intend to return very
soon to get more blueberries! We love Cider Hill Farm so much, we decided to
come back to this website to give them a good review! ;-)"
Comments from a visitor on August 06, 2009: "They do both PYO and
harvest for others to sell in their barn/store. Peaches, berries, apples....
most of the rest is harvested and sold in the store. Excellent place. They
have a great old donut maker and make the BEST fresh donuts; their apple
cider is awesome; a bee hive that kids can look at (behind plexiglass with a
tube that funnels to the outside. Pretty cool. In the past few years they
have installed 3 windmills and solar panels. Re. organic... I know they
spray the berries pre-blossom but not after. Wish they offer more organic.
They have a big chicken yard (.50 will buy your child a little cup of
chicken feed) and a couple of goats. It's a beautiful place offering some
plants in the spring and a great barn seasonally full of all sorts of
things. "
Comments from a visitor on August 28, 2008: "I've been taking
my son here for about 10 years and every year is better. Apple picking at
the base of the hill for those who can't climb or don't want to take the
hayride up. They continually add more types of fresh produce they sell in
their store. There are animals and play area for the kids. We've moved about
45 minutes away and still drive to Cider Hill. No one will ever beat their
hot cider donuts!"

Comments from a visitor on July 22, 2011: "Picked here on July 20, 2011.
Place was nice. cost $3 a person to go into the fields, but it was refunded
when you returned with your fruit. But the price per pound for the
blueberries was $5.50 so for me that was $5 a pint. Too expensive to go back
