Bush's Fern View Farms — Attraction in Elmira

I’m am very disappointed Bush’s for the employees they choose to represent their business. I’ve been in Alvadore for over a decade now, and we’ve been big fans of Bush’s. But today I came with my family, to grab some pumpkins real quick so we could go back home and carve with a good scary movie. It’s a tradition, and apart of that tradition is picking out our own pumpkins. We showed up with plenty of time before close to go grab ours. Over 30 minutes. After talking to the employees, asking if we could go over quick; they said “the registers will be closed at 5.” Like they’re not the ones that close the registers? It wasn’t super busy, we were the only ones there. My brother even bought something, which was a mistake at this point.

They were a hybrid between fuji and granny smith, but very sweet. They have variety of pumpkins, gourds, tomatoes, corns, variety of apples, pears, hazelnuts, and many more. Even have a little corn maze for the little one. Love the farm and recommend it to anyone. Check it out if you...

This is a great little hideaway that is we're stopping at year-round for fresh pressed apple cider that is delicious and pure. It features a walk up self serve cooler and certain times of the year you can get various apples and a wide variety of apples at that. Everything is purchased on the honor policy which is the old American way and one day, when I was a few dollars short, I admittedly still took my apple cider and returned at a later time with a note and the financial balance I owed them. Where can you do that in America? I appreciate them and hope they continue to trust us. I won't...
