Fantastic set up for kids of all ages. Family fun on the farm is exactly how I would describe Shaw Farm. The farm stand was adorable and had a great variety of fall merchandise. Plenty of food and drinks out back while engaging in the fun. The set up out front was magical for kids to pick their perfect pumpkin and not all in one place so someone small had plenty of room to pick theirs from several heaping piles and then several fall themed play areas while other kids chose theirs. The corn maze was surprisingly challenging! The QR code map made it feel more modern and engaging while still doing a past time harvest game. We sadly didn't do the horse drawn hay ride while we understood it was based on timing and we were already exhausted from all the fun, we went on one of several of the constantly rotating tractor hay rides and were pleasantly impressed by how long it was. We went past fields, ponds, and through some of the woods! The decoration ranged from pretty to (kid friendly) scary, and funny. All of the decorations were cute, well spaced from eachother and had us looking for the next destination. I recommend this for families with kids...
Read moreI will ALWAYS recommend Shaw Farms. The people are so nice that works there. Ibdont have to worry if my pumpkins will rot before I get to carve them closer to Halloween. The corn maze is aMAZEing (i know, corny joke lol). My kids love running around the little villages and teepee they have. We love seeing the farm animals that are out. During Halloween season they have food for sale so you don't have to worry about eating ahead of time. Everything is very reasonably priced. 2 years ago I bought corn stalks for decoration and they lasted a long while! I had them up well before Halloween and took it down after Thanksgiving, they definitely would have lasted longer without rotting. I love Shaw Farms and have been going here during the fall season for MANY years. I haven't tried their produce during the summer...
Read moreThis is a beautiful cross between a Farmer's Market and a country store located on a huge property, complete with a big open barn structure, live goats, seasonal fruits & vegetables, and a crops in the background.
Close to where I grew up and where my parents live, we enjoyed "short runners" green beans, juicy red tomatoes and ripe peaches all week long. The produce is super fresh and reasonably priced.
As Autumn approaches, they offer a great selection of gourds and pumpkins, and there are hay rides and a cool corn maze for the kids. It's easy to access from 131 and you can pop in for fresh produce and a quick in and out transaction, or you can stroll around the property with your camera like I did. Made me...
