Our family (6, 4, and 1 year old) visited Mariner Farms for the first time today. The kids had a great time! We rode the tractor through the farm to get to the part of the orchard that was ready for picking apples. We were the only ones on the tractor for that ride (read: not having to wait in long lines with impatient littles!). There were so many apples to pick! Whatever types weren't available for u-pick, were available at the barn already picked for you. I liked the labels that provided a description of the apples too. The orchard rows were wide, grassy, clean, and easy for our 1 year old to navigate. After we got our apples, we went out to pick pumpkins too! The kids loved cutting the pumpkins from the vines and there were lots of varieties and sizes left even though it's late October. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful! If you are looking for a place to do fall activities with little ones that is low-key, not over priced, and not overcrowded.. this is the place! We will most certainly be back to this hidden gem.. thanks...

When we went to check out our prepaid bags of apples, staff encouraged us to take more apples from the stand to fill our bags to the it fullest capacity! It was just a really sweet and laid back time. It was such a peaceful morning. We enjoyed meeting Greg and Debbie! Even the teenage boys (measuring pumpkins for us) were...

It was such a fun experience, and it's clear they are putting a lot of care into this new venture. This is their first season selling trees, and I highly recommend checking them out if you're in the area. Great people, great trees, and a perfect way to get into the...
