Brand Farms

What a fun place to visit! We brought our daughter here to try and start a new family tradition and it was a hit! There are so many things to do and so much to see! We skipped the apple picking this time around but will definitely be checking that out next year. We picked our own pumpkins, bought a ton of goodies from the little market/store and enjoyed an apple cider slushie concoction that was absolute perfection. I love being able to support local and felt like we got a great value from what we spent! We are sold and will be return customers year after year!

We went to brand farms and had a great time. When you first get there it appears to be pretty small and there's not much for parking. I do wish they would make a parking lot on the property. You have to park on the side of the dirt road. It is decorated very cute though. It was $5 for the hayride, but it covered your whole family. They had multiple rides going at once so the wait wasn't too long. I wanted to try one of the slushies but the long was so long and very slow, maybe next year. I think they either need more people working or multiple stands.You can ride the hayride or walk to the back of the property. This is where the pumpkin patch and apple orchard is. They also had a lot of activities. I wish they had food or drink available down in this area too. We paid for the Apple launcher which was very fun, louder than I thought. The line takes forever though because you get a large bucket of apples for $5 to shoot. So be prepared to wait. But it was fun. There are tons of cute areas decorated so you can take family pictures. We will go back again next year for sure.

Just an update, the Brand Family Farm stand is not open this year. Find a large array of activities and harvest foods at the Biscayne location. With plenty of parking, too.Brand Farms offer three forms of payment, cash, credit-debit card, or Venmo. Time to enjoy fall harvest. Don't forget to check out the Pumpkins here and on the Farm next door.Enjoy! Great family atmosphere with lots of country ambient feelings await you here. Thank you

We come here weekly year round. They only have their daily market in the fall but we purchase fresh eggs from their barn every week. Very fresh.They have lots of products: eggs, apples, apple breakfast sausage, apple bratwurst, apple cider, apple pie, apple crisp, apple donuts, apple slushies, dehydrated apples, etc... Too many to list.They also have hayrides and other activities. Stop by in the fall on a weekend for the full selection.

In short, pleasantly simple. Lots of character with plenty of fun activities without being overwhelming. All staff were kind, happy, and engaging. And yes, they have an apple cannon ($5/bucket)!!

First time here and definitely not the last. I saw on Facebook they are featuring their apple slush with vanilla soft serve ice cream and an apple cider donut on top. This was $7 and super good. Not overly sweet either. I literally only wanted to buy 4 apples but was told $9. I did buy 1/4 peck of sweet tango. They encourage you to fill the bag to the top. A lady gave me a first kiss apple. These aren't as sweet. I also bought a dozen brown eggs for $3 and Italian olive salsa for $9. I came alone and didn't partake in hay ride. The 1/4 peck of sweet tango apples was 11 apples for $11.00. I did see a packaged bag of 3 varieties 1/2 peck for $15.00. Some lady had a smaller portion and they just made up a price for her. Lots of people here on a Sunday.

Fall is our favorite season. The colors are changing, cooler weather, football and of course apple orchards. Ever since our favorite orchard closed several years back we have made plans every Fall to visit a new orchard and enjoy the day together. We had read some good Yelp reviews about another orchard. In this new world of Covid, things are understandable different. We made our reservations a few weeks in advance and were pretty excited to make the trip to this orchard. The night before we were checking our plans and the orchard we planned to visit changed their hours and they were not going to be open this day. Good thing we checked as we did not receive any notice and this orchard was at least an hour away. Some more research we located Brand Farms which was near some other stops that we had planned for our day. Brand Farms is an actual farm. In fact as we drove down Biscayne Ave, we drove past a few farms. When we arrived it felt like we were at someone's house as that is the first thing you see when you arrive. Up the driveway there are a couple of buildings and on the left is their shop. It's a smaller shop but they had lots of goodies in there. There were plenty of apples. There were also farm fresh eggs, apple brats (one of my favorites) maple syrup, salsa, and a few other goodies. There was only one other person there when we arrived. Brand Farms is the closest we have found to our favorite orchard that closed. No doubt this is a family owned farm and known to the locals. Our type of place.

Received their eggs as part of my CSA through Pahls Market. They were big and rich. They were so good I felt bad adding anything to them. Used them to make omelettes and breakfast sandwiches. Highly recommend.

Great customer service at the farm shop. Follow their Facebook page to learn about big events, or to learn the general open barn shop hours. Self-service in off hours. Eggs, meats, and some holiday specialties. You're driving up to a working farm so be respectful of animals about, and where to place your car out of the way of farm equipment. It's a well cared for farm and location that has clear parking and pick up space. Haven't met any angry animals, and the feathered ones seem friendly enough while you pick out your goods. Just make sure a cat doesn't try to hop a ride with you. Don't kiss out in their apple specials. The donuts are the BEST and the apple chips are our winter favorites.
