  Comments:
  A visitor writes on September 27, 2010: "First, I love your site thanks for all the information. My comment is about the farm I posted above. I visited yesterday after having been there before with my children. The last time we went the kids had a blast with the corn maze, petting zoo, hayride and tons of apples to pick. This time, however, we were very dissapointed. They are now charging $5 a person just to enter. For a family of 4 that's $20 before we get to the pumpkins, apples and other activities. I asked what my admission was getting me and was told the corn maze, last year everything was free. We drove almost an hour to go there yesterday and we didn't get to do any of the activities because of the new fee. We did go do the apple picking, although I wish we were warned that ALL the apples have fallen off the trees and were on the floor. There was no apples for the kids to pick. I was amazed. Thank you for letting me give my feedback and I hope others are now aware that they are charging for you to walk in and as of Sep 27, 2010 there were no apples on the trees!"

  A visitor writes on September 09, 2012: (positive) "I was hesitant after reading some negative reviews about Lawrence Farms Orchard (ed: on other websites) in Newburgh NY but I'm so glad we gave it a try anyway. The staff were friendly and helpful. The fruit and vegetables were plentiful and reasonably priced. The farm is beautiful. The children's village is really creative and the kids loved it. All around a great experience!"
  A visitor writes on July 01, 2010: (positive) "Just got back from a fantastic visit at Lawrence Farm Orchards and I can not say enough wonderful words about our trip. Called in the morning to confirm what was available for picking. The owner was very specific about crop availability (spinach, peas (all kinds) lettuce, zucchini, and limited raspberries and gooseberries. He apologized for not having more fruit available which was unnecessary as we completely understand crops vary from day to day. I must say that the one previous negative review of the farm was a concern, but we took the chance and made the 40 minute trip to the farm and boy are we glad we did. When we arrived at the farm, he took the time to point out all areas of the farm as well as location of the crops and to go over when new crops would be ready for pick your own. The vegetables were magnificent. I have never seen lettuce that big and healthy before. The zucchini were also quite large and the spinach was also A+. He even told us we were more the welcome to check the raspberry bushes if interested. The prices were great. The farm is huge with a variety of animals to look at and feed including goats, swans, chickens, ducks, and horses (though you can only really feed the swans/ducks and goats. The farm also has a great old fashioned children's village with wooden houses and interior furniture. Our children 5, 3, and 2 did not want to leave. As well as a quaint farm stand with wonderful jellies, jams, and other homemade goods. They also have food including pizza, hot dogs, french fries, ice cream, cider doughnuts, etc. to snack. We left with enough peas, spinach, lettuce, and zucchini to last quite some time and were amazed how cheap it all was. 10 pounds of zucchini, 2 pounds of spinach, 1 pound of peas, and a head of lettuce - 22 dollars - how can you go wrong. They have an abundance of crops for pick your own (in late July/early august they often have 12 different fruits and vegetables to pick) and also give you the option of filling out postcards which they mail letting you know when peaches, apples, strawberries, and Christmas trees are ready for picking. We will most definitely be back to Lawrence farms and everyone is looking forward to it. I highly recommend this farm as it has quickly become a family favorite. I am surprised someone had such a bad experience with Lawrence Farms because they were so welcoming, helpful and genuine. If you have the opportunity to visit, especially with kids, this is one place not to miss."
  A visitor writes on May 24, 2010:  (positive) "I have visited about four times a year for the last three years and been very happy. It is a wonderfully kid-friendly location with big open spaces, well-groomed picking areas, play area, farm animals, and a corn maze in summer. It is far enough away from the city that it doesn't turn into a complete zoo like Westchester farms. It is true that cheaper farms can be found for adults who are doing serious picking, but for a great day with the family (especially with young kids) this user-friendly farm is a fantastic option."
