Smith Family Farms

LOVE! Close to home and very fresh veggies!

We love going here to get our Christmas trees. A bit pricier then your lots or super stores but well worth the annual tradition.

Just found out about this family farm when we bought our Christmas tree from them. Nice people beautiful farm we will definitely be going back for seasonal foods

This review is late, but I guess better late than never!
October– We discovered the farm event two years ago and have come back every year ever since. For a reasonable admission price ($ 10−12pp? Cash only) the entire family gets to spend a leisurely day petting animals, feeding chickens, maneuvering through a corn maze, and shopping for handmade (reasonably priced) Halloween treats. You could bring your own lunch, but they sell food as well. Our favorite part is always the hoedown in the barn that the children get to participate in. Lastly, at the end everyone gets a wagon ride to the pumpkin patch to pick out their own pumpkin. I appreciate that the wagon takes to back to the parking lot. Afterwards, we go wild in the produce market. The produce is always fantastic and reasonable.
December-​picking out a Xmas tree from the farm is festive. The general store sells Xmas items and the lot has small to giant trees upright like a mini forest giving it a much better holiday feel than a mall parking lot. The animals are still around for an encounter, a little scratch, or a photo op eating a pumpkin. I wondered what they did with all those left over pumpkins from October. The additional touches that made it really enjoyable and tolerable in the cold was the nice outdoor fire and the fresh popcorn they gracious gave out in the store.

I have been to this farm for the Halloween season for years. I guess I have always gone on the weekend. This time I went on a weekday and everything they usually have was closed. We walked around for about 20 minutes and looked around and stuff that was in really bad repair and then went on the tractor to get a pumpkin. There was not a barn show for another hour and a half and there was not enough to do to warrant a wait for that. We were done in about a half hour. For only $ 4 less than on a weekend for my grandson and I, I guess I expected I little bit more. Kind of felt ripped off.

The place very cool I would give it a five but it was small. When we get the pumpkins is the best part.
I would go again next year.

Loved the pumpkin patch excursion. $ 12 per pumpkin, but fun for the kids. Only Bummer was the lack of herbs left in the garden area, and the lack of help in this «kiosk» too. It was only about noon, so they shouldn’t have run out by then. Not very many vendors inside for the Pumpkin event, but was pleased with the veggies kiosk at the street side — very fresh and great prices. I’ll swing by here on a regular basis since they have a better selection than the weekly farmers market.

My young daughter, and now my baby son, always have a great time at Smith Family Farms during the pumpkin season. There are may places throughout the farm where you can have a photo op with your kids or the whole family. This year they had a collection of vintage automobiles in front of the farm which was really cool. A food vendor or two usually fulfills your appetite while strolling around the farm. There is corn feed so you have a chance to feed the farms chickens as well. There is also a haystack maze, a magic barn show, and an Indian village, Smith Family Farm is a whole lot of fun. Oh, they also sell amazing local honey, yum-​o!
Once you are set to grab your pumpkin, step in on a tractor hayride that will bring you to the pumpkin patch. Their field is littered with pumpkins of all different sizes, shape, and color. The same tractor hayride will bring you back close to your car by the parking lot. The only con is that the parking area can get really dusty.
Smith Family Farms is a yearly tradition for our family come pumpkin season.

This is a quaint yet full of family fun Pumpkin Farm with a very nice staff, reasonable prices and cool features such as animal petting zoo, entertainment, hay rides, corn maze and so much more. We ran the kids wild for 4 hours and they loved it and we all came home with a pumpkin of our picking!

Smith Farm was so fun today! We had a family adventure with our kids and 1 ½ year old grand daughter. $ 12.00 admission for adults, $ 10.00 for children, but so worth the price. It includes a hay ride to pick out your pumpkin, the Pumpkin, a ride back to the parking lot to place your trophy in your car, a ride back to the main event location, awesome music played under massive shade trees and gazebo, a Corn maze, craft fair, and the most delicious Polish Dogs are available for $ 5.00! We will certainly return next year!

What a great little farm! We took our kids this weekend to get pumpkins. I love that the your admission covers a pumpkin, corn maze, tractor ride and barn show. I can’t wait to go for a Christmas tree.

We love smith family farm!
Not only for their fruit stand, but their pumpkin patch is super cute! They have a corn maze, field to pick pumpkins, barn show, farm animals, corn hole, a little shop and stand that sell snacks and drinks and a hay ride. It is perfect for the little one and a local spot must! The staff is very friendly and it is very organized. We love coming to the smith family farm and can’t wait for Christmas!

I came here for my son’s field trip today, which makes this my second time visiting.
I like how organize it was since there was three other field trips going on. This place was big enough for everybody!
My son loved the tractor ride and he had a blast picking out his pumpkin. He also enjoyed the corn maze and hay maze as well.
The only thing I wish they had was a water fountain. I’m glad I ended up bringing money because my group wanted water so I got them $ 1 bottle of water or $ 1 box juices.
The picnic tables was nice, there was a lot of shade so It kept us pretty cool. This place is def family fun filled!

this place is awesome! We went to the pumpkin patch and didn’t expect so many activities. Live music, barn show, crafts, hayride and more. It was 12 bucks to get in BUT that included a pumpkin from the patch. Not bad at all. A new family tradition for us :)

Don’t go here if you want to pick your own apples this season!!! Given the great reviews of this place, I happily piled my kids into the car and made the hour drive out to Brentwood to pick apples. When I arrived, I asked the woman at the fruit stand (the farmer’s daughter?) if we could pick our own apples. She looked at me like I had three heads. She informed me that the customers who had come during peach picking season had wiped them out of the apples. They did have some apples available for sale, but the quality was poor. Lots of worm holes, etc. I ended up buying a couple of very nice limes and an over-​ripe avacado (buyers remorse, but it was cheap). Overall, a waste of time. Heading to Apple Hill in Placerville today and hoping for a better experience.
UPDATE: If you are willing to make the drive, go to Placerville. There are several fruit stands with lots of activities pre-​Halloween (visit
). It’s crowded on weekends, but still worth it because there’s a better variety of produce and it’s much better quality. There are also craft vendors and food available.

I will preface this by saying that for the most part i made a mistake… I signed up for the red tricycle event, bought two tickets and made note of the weekend, but ended up showing up on the wrong day since the tickets i was provided did not have a date. so i drive over 2 hours to get here to find out its he next day. clearly i am not driving all the way back here, 4 hours plus round trip, the next day with 2 kids under 4. the staff here was less than helpful and one even laughed at me… that was helpful after my kids had been sitting in the car for so long. no refund either since its less than 24 hours before.
So i paid $ 20 to make a mistake and be treated rudely by snotty staff. not very kid (or mom having a pretty crappy day) friendly if you ask me…

It’s always a pleasure to come and visit this farm. Lots of fun for the family! and their produce are amazingly delicious and super fresh. Our most sincere thanks to Jan for your gracious welcome, YOU and your staff always make us feel at home

I went to pick peaches here with a friend about a month ago and the peaches were amazingly good! They had sun crest peaches and some white peaches that we had to walk pretty far along the rows to get to but it was a good experience nonetheless. I believe they charge something around $ 1 or $ 1.25/pound of fruit picked. Everything is weighed at the end and they only accept cash so make sure to bring some!

We visited the pumpkin patch today and had an amazing time. In fact, we will go back next weekend if they continue after Halloween. $ 10 gets you in and includes all the activities and a pumpkin. My 6 month old daughter was not charged a cover.
There is a 2 person group who play guitars and sing in the gazebo. My 6 month old loved it. There are a few stands selling crafts and a little country store. There is also a stand selling brick oven pizza. It was so delish that we almost ordered seconds.
The hey ride rakes you over to the actual pumpkin patch. You get off and go find your perfect pumpkin. Then they pick you up and drop you off in the parking lot. You can load up and go home, or walk back and spend the rest of the day enjoying the fun fetivities.

Boy is this place worth the visit. We did a HowAboutWe deal and got first-​class treatment. There are large orchids to browse filled with delicious, off-​the-​tree tastes… incredibly juicy. The garden stand in the front has a variety of fresh veggies and fruits and reasonable prices. But some of my favorite parts of this journey were the personal tours of the berries and tomatoes (mmm… some of the best around) picking areas but my most favorite was making an herbal bouquet.
The staff and owners are super nice. They do events here on occasion. It’s a huge property and definitely a nice excuse to get out of the city.
There’s even a farm with a wide selection of chickens, donkeys, peacocks, bunnies and more.
If you like to pick your own delicious fruit, this is the place for you. My only regret is that produce doesn’t last a long time, so we had to limit what to bring home.
Go! Enjoy! Even outside of Halloween. We went in early July, early afternoon on a Sunday. It was hot (about 100F) but it was fairly empty too. Just bring a big hat, sunblock, bug spray, and definitely water.
Be okay with port-​a-​potties, too.
