I also go to Johnson's farm. It's a nice setup. They don't have a petting zoo but you can pay a small price and go in and feed the animals through the fences. They have a "hayride" out to a field where they let you off. You pick your pumpkins and apples. They also have a big playground for the kids...I don't like that you have to pay for it though.

I also think their prices per pound are a little high but I don't have anything to compare it to and my daughter loves it.

Prices are high but their stuff is very good. They also put a lot of money into renovating the farm.

Anyone been to both Johnson's & Alstede's? I'd like a comparison (I take this VERY seriously! LOL! )

I miss Tice Farms up in Woodcliff Lake!

That Battleview one in Freehold intrigues me since it's not that far from me either.....what is it that makes it one of your favorites? I'm curious to see how it differs from other places. Maybe we'll try changing it up an going there this year. I'll take a peek on that site now to see exactly where it is.... Thanks.

It doesn't have to be Fall to go there lol. I love it there...Been there a ton of times (since Holmdel sprayground is around the corner)! Love it there but need somewhere different which I have many now to choose from!

another place is demarest farm in hillsdale (bergen county). they have pick-your-own pumpkins and apples (and peaches in season) plus hayrides. along with abma's farm in wyckoff, it's one of the only farms left in the county.
