Bà 9 Vườn Trái Cây — Attraction in Homestead

We traveled here from Virginia; it was around a 17 hour drive and definitely worth the trip!!! Prior to going we were a bit hesitant because of some of these reviews, but I think it's definitely necessary to manage your expectations. Many people in the reviews said the owner was rude, but in my own experience she was very kind and welcoming! At first she may seem a bit cold, but after some time she opened up and even gave us some free fruits to sample and when they ran out of the type of fruits we wanted she went out of her way and had an employee bring some for us from a different side of the farm. Also it's helpful to remember that the owner is in charge of a huge operation and can be quite busy, so it's not really fair to expect her to be happy and chipper the whole time. Something else to remember, although controversial, is to not bargain. We learned that the owner sells her fruit to grocery stores and other places and doesn't even need to be selling to the public, so bargaining does not really make sense because it's not like she actually needs our money. Plus I find the price to already be very fair!! For others saying that the price is supermarket pricing, the quality of the fruit is much, much better and fresher. With the longans, for example, you'll be hard pressed to find any as juicy, large, or sweet in the grocery store. In addition, in VA longans are sold at around 6.99 to 7.99 per pound, at this place its around 35 dollars for a 20 lb. box. We ended up buying 7, 20 lb. boxes and were quite happy with our stop. For those who may hesitate, I think the experience is quite amazing and the trees and plants reminded my parents of their...

I regret to say that my experience with Thang Dang Farms, also known as Vuon Co Chin Fruits Farms and Ba 9 Vuon Trai Cay Farms, has been deeply disappointing and troubling. As a customer, I have encountered significant issues with the owner, Thang Dang, which have left me feeling disrespected and concerned.

First and foremost, communication with Thang Dang has been virtually impossible. Despite repeated attempts to reach out, calls go unanswered, and messages remain ignored. This lack of responsiveness is highly unprofessional and frustrating for customers seeking assistance or information.

Moreover, I have heard numerous reports of Thang Dang's aggressive and bullying behavior towards others. It is deeply concerning to hear that he has allegedly threatened people with legal action, creating an atmosphere of intimidation and fear.

The recent article published in the Miami Herald detailing a tragic death on his farm raises serious questions about the safety and management practices employed at Thang Dang Farms. Additionally, the Fair Labor Standards Act lawsuit against him further underscores the need for investigation into his business practices.

In light of these troubling incidents and allegations, I strongly urge authorities to conduct a thorough investigation into Thang Dang Farms. Customers deserve to feel safe and respected when interacting with any business, and it is clear that significant concerns exist regarding Thang Dang's conduct and the operations of his farms. Potential customers should proceed with caution and consider alternative options until these issues are adequately addressed...

Not sure about bad reviews but we gave this place a try and ended up getting tons of variety fruits to bring home for family (see the boxes photo taken in our hotel room :D ) and having good experience. Glad that we did.

They are wholesaler so they only sale fruits by the boxes unless they ran out of fruits and sale whatever left over they have. Maybe the name is misleading, but this is a fruit wholesaler not a typical u-pick place so you can't go to their farm. They have few trees in the front for pictures if you ask them nicely.

Price is reasonable... depending on the quality. They have different quality grades for the same kind of fruit ... thus, different prices.

We went in April so there were not a lot of fruit choices. We ended up getting guava, longan, sapote, guanabana, caimito, coconuts, green mango...
