Country Sun Farm & Greenhouses — Attraction in Lake Elmo

Very disappointed. Usually go to Lendt's in Wyoming but thought we'd give this a try. Brought my kids, my parents, my brother and his family and my sister and her family. All activities were closing at 5pm(place says open til 7pm). Extremely expensive for what it is $6pp for hayride, $5pp for hayride, $4pp for bounce house. There is a petting zoo with corn dispensers that you get about 20 kernels per quarter. My kids and their cousins went in to pick out pumpkins and played in the corn playground. When they were getting out for us to leave, the corn police came over and made sure to have them empty their pockets, shoes, shake out hoodies to make sure they didn't "steal" any corn to feed the animals.

We will never go back to this overpriced, ran by "Karen's" pumpkin patch. We will stick with Lendt's. They are fun, friendly, and reasonably priced. This...

As far as fall festivals go, this only gets a 3/5. We had a lot of fun and it was very kid friendly, but just seemed to be lacking a little on interactive things.

Corn pit inside was awesome. They had slides and stuff for kids to climb on, very well done. Concession and gift shop was nice as well.

Overall, not enough for families to do outside, but they had a great corn pit and animals for kids to...

Country Sun Farm in Lake Elmo is a true gem in the Twin Cities! We love having places like this just down the road from our own little wellness retreat in Stillwater. Their selection of native plants, pollinator-friendly flowers, and seasonal produce is top-notch—and the whole farm has a welcoming, family-friendly vibe that’s hard to beat.

Whether you’re grabbing pumpkins in the fall, picking out flowers in spring, or just enjoying a slow stroll through the greenhouses, this place is a breath of fresh air. You can feel the love and care they put into everything they grow.

So grateful to have a local business like this helping people reconnect with the land, the seasons, and their community 🌱🐝 —From your neighbors at...
