My family and I go to Butler's annually for the past three years for the Fall Festivity and we always have a good time. It's plenty for the kids to do there and the food is pretty good too! The lines were long to get snacks and food. If you are thinking about going I say....GO! & see for yourself.
Great place to buy fruit pick your own and just enjoy some sweet strawberries in June. Friendly staff and lot's of nick nacks to buy as well.
Wonderful place for obtaining locally grown produce. Used to love stopping here for fruit, vegies, and whatever else they had in their market that day. Well worth the trip and easy to get to from I-270.
We really wanted to like Butler's Orchard but after waiting over an hour to drive in and park, we were summarily yelled at for walking to the bathroom instead of moving our car to the bathroom. After selecting and purchasing pumpkins, we then waited in traffic for another 15 minutes to park at the Farmer's Market, and then another 20 minutes in line at the register. Further, while we were able to use an AmEx to pay for our pumpkins, the Farmer's Market insisted that the orchard doesn't take AmEx, which didn't make sense. Really disappointed to drive there and spent almost our whole time waiting.
My 2 year old had a very dangerous experience today at the harvest festival. The site claims it is for ages 2 and up and on a Tuesday Morning I figured it would be a lot of small people out getting pumpkins and enjoying the sunshine. This was not the case. Apparently there were school groups there? Lots of older kids including teenagers and no one was being watched. My daughter got pushed down the slide (on purpose) and kicked in the face by a 15 year old after repeatedly being asked to leave the little one alone. There was no area to escape all these older children. The line for the hay ride was over an hour wait and so we decided to give up in favor of safety. No refund was available and we ended up leaving with a little $.25 pumpkin because we couldn't get up to the field. For $7 this isn't ok. If you are going to host school groups - I think you should do it at a time you aren't also hosting the public - or keep them separated, or at least chaperoned, or at LEAST provide enough hay wagons. The level of safety they provided was unacceptable. Poor planning. There are a lot of really nice pumpkin FARMS in the area. We will go someplace else in the future. Also - there was no food as advertised.
The market shop here has lots of fresh produce and packaged food items as well as little gifts. The staff are great and the pick your own is a great experience. Although it can get quite crowded and busy they seem well equipped to handle all of the people.
Excellent apples! The honeycrisp is my favorite this season. Not the cheapest around, but the products are quality! The pies are good too! Bring the family and enjoy a day at the orchard!
Great place to get home grown apples and vegetables. Come in the fall for the Pumpkin Fest and have a ball picking your own pumpkin and enjoying the other events.
The staff is great, the location charming, but oy, the prices. You can easily pay over $100 for Christmas tree and they grow their own. That said, they are one of the only places that have trees over 8'.
nice local produce, best peaches, I like to drop by there on the way home to pick up something for dinner.
