We like the petting zoo here. It’s very clean and features of a variety of animals. Tickets are five dollars each, and crackers are a dollar each. It’s small but perfect for small children (my 4yo loves it). There is also cooked food and a salad bar inside the market. The flowers here are also very beautiful.

We had an amazing experience. From the location to parking, from finding everything needed to entering the place. From pricing to amazing staff and to all the animals. Would definitely go again highly recommend it for all ages.

It’s official. This light show is a Christmas must-do, provided you have the emotional fortitude for the traffic. This "farm" experience, is located in what I can only describe as the Bermuda Triangle of tight Bergen County roads (I think it's Bergen County here). The journey is a gauntlet. But is it worth it? Dammit, yes. The Admission Price: They charge by the car, my advice? Borrow the biggest damn vehicle you can find—a minivan, whatever—and pack it like a clown car. The Time Warp: When they say the ride is 30 minutes, they mean 30 minutes if you were driving on a deserted Martian highway. Realistically? You’re looking at 45 minutes to an hour maybe more from the moment you hit the property line until you exit. There is only one road in and one back out. But why rush... A Public Service Announcement: If you have the bladder capacity of a hummingbird, this is where you learn to regret every sip of coffee you've ever had. There is no bailout. You are strapped in for the full holiday parade. Prepare accordingly. The Glow-Up (Why I Forgave The Traffic) The lights are spectacular. Forget your typical big-box store light strings. This is a genuinely special, high-effort display. Turning off the headlights and just creeping through, you realize this isn't some quick commercial cash-grab; it's a true Christmas Treat. The effort they put in is truly amazing, and it elevates the whole thing past the traffic pain. After we completed our majestic crawl, we immediately went and found a nice pub for holiday cheer. They have a gift shop at a holiday shop too, but the way the traffic was, we weren't able to make our way in. However, I assure you will be back. More on this next year and yes, you should go. Go slow, enjoy the lights...

First time peach picking experience! I had so much fun despite the heat. I was able to buy tickets on-site, and the staff were very friendly. There were plenty of peach trees available, and the peaches were a great size—ripe, juicy, and delicious! Prices for other food items in the store were also reasonable. The restroom was a trailer, which was fine, but the biggest downside was how incredibly hot it was inside due to the lack of ventilation. Overall, it was a fun and memorable experience—I’d definitely go again, just maybe on a cooler day! 🍑
