We did a pie making class with Melissa. This was the worst cooking class we had ever been to. She showed up late, and then proceeded to give us the recipe for the wrong pie. She didn’t give us any instructions on how to make a pie. She just make her own pie and just announced what she was doing. She never went around to check on anyone else. She spent 20 minutes crimping the edges on her own pie, while ignoring everyone else. To top it all off, she undercooked all of our pies because she was in a rush to get out of there. It was a total waste of $120

Absolutely appalling! We arrived at 9:30am and there was not a member of staff anywhere. Animals were calling for food and in poor conditions. A woman finally arrived at 9:45 and was scurrying around to feed the animals and couldn’t even say hello to us. Every thing was closed up and lights off. All the animals were stood in manure. Trustees you should be ashamed. I grew up on a farm and have worked in farming my whole life from beef, dairy, sheep, chickens and pigs and there is no excuse for animals to live in these conditions. If I could give you 0 stars I would, I’m seriously considering reporting this to the authorities for animal welfare.

Great place for families. Lots to see. Nice farm stand where you can purchase fresh meat and vegetable plants. Be aware that the dirt road, Aero Ave, has very high speed bumps that are difficult for regular sedans to pass over. Was worried about damaging the undercarriage and would not return unless driving our 4x4 vehicle next time.
