Bring the kids, or just go. It's a fun place! Lots of stuff for the kiddies to do, and a great selection of foods in the shopping section. I especially love the South Bend Chocolate Company assortment of chocolate popcorn, et al, but best of all are the apples! So many different species and so fresh right from the orchard.... More

We took our granddaughter there to pick out a pumpkin. She loved pulling her own little wagon and walking through the pumpkin patch to find the "perfect" pumpkin. You can pick your own apples or buy them from the little store - they were fresh, clean and crisp. Wonderful! They have a few activities for kids (bouncy house, pony rides,... More

This place is a CU institution. The apple donuts and fritters are to die for and it is fun to watch all the kiddos. It can be really crowded on the weekends though and it is a little pricey. More

They have gotten way too commercial. Plus, their prices for tours for school children have gotten ridiculous. It is NOT the cost of the products like apples and pumpkins that disturb me. It is the added aggravation of the sippy cups for juice and the tour fee. Mrs. Curtis was charming as she explained about the bees and and showed... More

Pumpkin patches are fun for all ages, but with the rising price of pumpkins it is a little pricy! I think this is the kind of place where you have to weigh the price with your individual family's enjoyment. For our family, picking out a pumpkin at the grocery store and carving it at home is just as exciting as... More
