We did not stay at the hotel. We went to the Farm Store. I miss the old Farm Store. We looked for Canadian bacon - there was none. The Secolari Olive Oil selections was also disappointing- an over abundance of vinegars. Even the ice cream selection was disappointing - had hoped for a larger selection. I miss the fresh farm vegetables.
The location is beautiful. Plenty to do for kids and a great selection of flowers to choose from out in the field. The gift shop has really good snacks and trinkets.
Fun place.
Amazing farm!!!
I'm giving this 3 stars because of a few issues. I thought the price was okay. When you first pull in it looks like a junk yard to be honest. There was a lot of trash all over. Many of the play areas had broken pieces to them and the tractor in the middle of the play area is so unsafe for kids plus there was a lot of broken parts lying around it. The signage for where to go was lacking, we walked the wrong way and completely missed the sunflowers because there was not a sign for it. The map they give you is so small and makes no sense. The more we walked the more trash we saw. It's just so unkept. This could be a really nice place but I was pretty let down. The Sunflowers were pretty but it's not like a huge area or anything. All in all I'd say do your research and maybe go if you want to try it but I'm not sure we will return.
Rebuilding the food system, from the farm up
We've stayed at Mary's Land Farm multiple times, and the experience has been delightful every time. The rooms are very comfortable, quiet, and come with amenities you won't find elsewhere (heated bathroom floors). The breakfasts have variety, and the hosts are very careful not to include my allergens (dairy and gluten). Sitting on the front porch in the rocking chairs and listening to the birds is a rare treat. I'd highly recommend Mary's Land Farm!
What a beautiful and amazing week we had at this wonderful place! The food, the service, the farm itself and especially the people were just incredible! Julie, Sam and Brennan took such wonderful care of my family and they really went above and beyond for us!! We can’t wait to go back! Tom and his beautiful family are amazing people and we couldn’t be more grateful for our time there!
We reserved a pavilion and unicorn experience for our 4 year old’s birthday party and I can’t speak higher for the beautiful farm, the cleanliness, the incredible staff and support we received. It was worth every penny and we will absolutely come back. Thank you all so much for creating such a magical experience for everyone!
We went late in the day so some features were not available to us. They were setting up for a birthday party as well as what appeared to be a larger gathering. It is a farm so expect to be a little dirty if you're doing the farm related things like petting zoo and that kind of thing. It's pretty much self-toured unless you're on the train ride which is special for the birthday parties. Since we're there so late. They didn't have any more feed for feeding the animals, but we did get the pets some.
