Brooksby Farm

What a beautiful place. My 2 year old granddaughter loved the goat and started singing old mcdonalds had a farm when she saw the tractor

Had a great time here. Went blueberry picking. Very relaxing summer day trip. Blueberries were large and tasted delicious. They have a farm store where you can purchase a cold drink, all kinds of fresh vegetables and frozen pies. Many other items also. I love that it's local and I'm supporting this beautiful farm.i forgot to mention live animals and a play area for the kids to play and rest.

Very beautiful and picturesque especially in the fall. Has everything you need. Fresh cider donuts, mums, pumpkins, sunflower field when in season, farm animals , fresh fruits and vegetables - including of course -crunchy apples.

Great place to take your kids to a farm and see some animals, feed them, and play in their open area. Feeding the animals is $.50 at their shop. A big open space for toddler aged children to run around with minimal toys to play outside. The shop has a great selection of fruit and veggies plus their own apple cider. They make the best hotsauce I had.

We came here on a Sunday morning in September for apple picking. We found more than that: the farm’s store sells their own honey, vegetables and fruits. This farm has corn and peppers that smell exactly like the one from my grandparents garden. That says a lot! The taste of the vegetables we bought from here I have only found in small, local gardens and this to me is a gift to the community. If we lived closer I would buy our vegetables from this farm weekly. Other things we loved: the staff was friendly, the flowers and animals were great for kids, the apple orchard was picture perfect with small trees that our kids could easily reach. Overall we had a beautiful day and would come again in the future.

Pretty nice place, but a bit boring for us. We picked peaches and tomatoes. They are delicious. And that’s it. You cannot spend much time there because there is nothing to do there after picking a small bag or two of peaches. One bag is $20. No playground, a few old toy cars for kids, and a few animals.

My 6.5 yr old and I picked blueberries today ( they are delicious) the new playground was a popular one with her. We also cut our own flowers, which she also loved! 🥰

We had the best time here! We took our animal-loving toddler and he fed several animals. We brought extra veggies from home (carrots, cabbage, and celery). The store wasn’t open for the season yet but we’re excited to get back and check that out!

We arrive to the orchard and notice how spread out it is. It is a TON of walking. At this point, I should've called it. We continued on and headed to the "Farm/Country Store" to grab some Cider Donuts. I know they go quickly and I figured it was best to grab them right away. They also offer a cider cart OUTSIDE that has them WARM. The line was easily 100-people deep. They are either incredibly understaffed and/or inefficient. The country/farm store has an incredible selection of house-made sauces, butters, dips, marinades, salsas, honey, maple syrup, spices, and so much more! They have a huge selection of craft candies, sweets, and savory items. I picked up some Peach Salsa and some Queso Dip. I look forward to trying them! You'll also find a huge selection of fresh produce, baked goods, and of course: Apples! They have a wide selection of baked goods like Whoopie Pies, Cookies, Cider Donuts, Pies, Turnovers, Elephant Ears, and so much more! Produce wise you'll find grape/cherry tomatoes,heirloom tomatoes, fresh carrots, hot peppers, fresh corn, squash, and of course: Apples! They also have your typical Knick-Knacks for the home and unique toys for the kids. They have a small selection of dog treats that are made here on the East Coast. The farmhouse may have an amazing selection. The problem is the place is a total cluster to get thru. People are constantly running into each other due to the line being backed up into the back of the store. It takes a good amount of time to get up front to just checkout. They do have fresh cider in the coolers by the register. I did like they offered their cider in individual sizes. I hate buying a half-gallon and it being too much to finish. They also have a canned, sparkling cider that looks phenomenal. Prices inside the farm store are very reasonable. A half peck of apples pre-picked are $12 for half a peck, $20 for a full peck. They have multiple varieties available. Our favorite is the McIntosh. We went with a half-peck that was pre-packed instead of picking our own. More on this below. We headed out to the orchard to pick our own Apples. The problem: they have no way to get out to the orchard, which is VERY spread out. I expected a tractor with a hayride or something. Maybe it's just a Midwest thing. I've never been to an orchard that required such a large amount of walking. Most places offer a hayride for a charge. A charge I'd have happily paid! That said, we chose to go with the pre-packed half-peck of McIntosh apples. They all looked phenomenal and in great shape, not bruised or beat up. No holes or anything from insects/bugs. We went out to see if we had any chance of getting a hot cider donut. The line just never moved and the entire day would've been spent standing in line. So, we headed to see the animals. The country store DOES offer food to feed the TWO animals we saw. I am not joking. There were literally two animals on premises. It was the most disappointing thing. I would never pay any admission for this. There was very little for kids to really do here. It became clear: it's a money maker for the city. The city owns and operates the farm and orchard. If you look around back, they have crates of pumpkins and apples. They're selling their product, like many farms do. No problem. But focus on the fall experience FIRST. I won't lie, it was so disappointing that we left early and went out to Salem. They do have a nice selection of pumpkins, both orange and white! They have a solid selection of sizes: from small to jumbo. The price is reasonable on the pumpkins and gourds. This was probably the least disappointing part for me. They wanted $30+ to pick your own. That also includes at least a mile of walking just to get to trees with apples on them. Most people seemed to just buy the pre-packed as well. It's a true disappointment to me. The donuts were not very good either. Very dense and somewhat dry, in my opinion. They don't even use any sugar on the outside, as most places do. I think I've had better from the grocery store bakery. Taste is subjective, so you may like them! They need to overhaul this experience before next year. It was a true disappointment and I'd tell anyone looking for an orchard to go to Central Massachusetts. It wasn't worth the time, money, or effort for such a disappointing experience.

Great price for a big bag to pick your favorite apples . Probably the best price so far compared to other places for a big bag. $40 bucks . It's double the size compared to others. Not a big farm but enough .

My partner and I visited for some apple picking and had a great time! There were some trees at the front picked clean but after a bit of a walk there were so many trees with tons of apples! I will say wear comfortable, sturdy shoes to come pick apples! There are some fallen apples or animal scavenged apples and you don't want to roll your ankle. After we took our apples to the car we hit the little farm store and bought candy, desserts, some meat, and some drinks. It's such a great place to spend a relaxing weekend day out!

Stopped by for some apple picking which was really fun. Weather was perfect and there were so many apples! They did only have 3 varieties available for picking when we went in October but it sounded like a little later, they do have other varieties normally. The apples we had though were all tasty and crisp! They also had some vegetables out that you could buy to feed their animals. Kind of strange they only had one of each animal but they were very cute and lots of fun to watch them eat. A fun way to spend a few hours. And now we have too many apples than we know what to do with!

Thank you so much Brooksby Farm for an amazing day. My niece and I came today for the holiday festivities and it was more then we imagined. We made friends, learned about the farm and had so much fun doing the activities. We greatly appreciate the efforts put in to make today possible. You continue to be our favorite local farm!

Great time on a crisp fall day. Cider donuts to die for. Hot and crispy outside with warm cake centers. Ice cold apple cider. Hay rides and petting zoo. Crowded but manageable. Much fun for a Floridian to come home to. #stevensleavin

I was searching for a pumpkin and an employee who works at Brooksby Farm "Michelle", was so helpful. At first she pointed out that they only had the sugar pumpkins in the shop and then pointed out that there where still some outside but not the kind I was looking for. While I was browsing in the shop I ended up buying 2 sugar pumpkins to see if they would work in my recipe as I was getting into my car Michelle had searched and found the last remaining pumpkin and swapped out with me before leaving. Great customer service!!!!

The lines of people without spacing was quite concerning for my small group so we left pretty quickly after getting donuts. There were hardly any staff to enforce the regulations and everyone was gathered around the petting zoo section, even feeding whole cobs of corn to animals. One looked like it was going to choke. Where the donuts were was unmarked so we had to wander around at bit as well and think they could improve their signage to help people from wondering in crowds so much.

The apple farm is nice, had a nice afternoon with friends, but when leaving a staff member will come over and ASK YOU TO CHECK YOUR BACKPACK for make sure there are no apple in it. Do I look like the bad guy? Or is it discrimination? IDK，There is no reason for this and it is very disrespectful ! ! !

I had one of their apple cider donuts today. Let's just say they won't be winning any best of apple cider doughnuts contests. It was a donut but kind of bland.

Come early on the weekend and you can avoid the crowds! Brooksby Farm has apple picking, hay rides, petting zoo, store, pumpkins, and cider donuts. The farm is fairly large and can be hard to find easy to reach apples depending on when you go. The cider donuts are good but not the best I've had. The convenience from Boston is a pro!

I am disappointed in this farm as they claim to be accessible, however, I was questioned multiple times regarding the validity of my service animal. As a person with a disability and a service dog handler I know my rights. I do not need to announce to the entire venue when I enter that my dog is a service animal. It is completely inappropriate, disrespectful, and rude for staff to whisper amongst themselves and say that my dog is not a service animal. Brooksby Farm should educate themselves on service animal rights. To start, service animals are not required to wear a vest or badge. Would not recommend if you are a person with a disability that wants to enjoy a day at the farm without being interrogated about bringing your service animal.

My friend and I were there last weekend. Disappointing. Every single type of apple is 2.49 a pound in the store. Way overpriced. Pies were 16.00. We actually came exclusively for the warm sugary apple cider donuts. They were not warm nor sugary! They were very dry and there was no option to buy just ONE we had to buy 1/2 a dozen. Are you promoting obesity just to get money for your farm? If so you better make those donuts damn good! We ate only 1/2 a donut each and thought they were awful. We tossed the rest in the trash. I think they changed the recipe. Big disappointment. We'll try other farms.

I was part of a small group that came by for summer berry picking and we all had a great time. Second weekend of July there were plenty of raspberries and blueberries to go around. We were not that interested in cherries and it looked like those trees were more heavily picked anyway. I also found out that due to inconsistency of their crops, Brooksby does not grow strawberries anymore. We paid $4 a person to pick the berries plus paid for each box we filled. Kids don't have to pay to get in, which was nice since mine can't walk on his own yet! Before and after we perused their indoor market area and picked up some produce and other foodstuffs. The prices for them varied from cheap to a tad expensive so keep an eye out. There are also a couple pigs, a donkey, and some chickens you feed and look at, plus a fenced play area for kids. We will be back for apple picking in the fall!

We usually try to come at least once a year to shop. There's local food items available like vegetables, honey, jams, sauces, apples, cider, cakes, monkey bread, pies, and milk. The items are either grown and made in Brooksby Farm or are locally sourced. In early fall they do have apple picking. My wife and I have done it once or twice, we love it but alas, we don't usually have time to do it. The staff are pleasant and helpful, the cider donuts are delicious (and you can buy them fresh!) and the vegetables are fresh and tasty. It's a place worth checking out if you're in the area.

Brooksby farm is a historic farm dating back to the 1600s. The city of Peabody was able to acquire the farm for a significantly lower price than developers were offering, which is a credit both to the city and the heirs. In addition to a large working apple orchard, there is a mostly forested perimeter trail. Brooksby Farm is located on a hill with great views of Danvers to the north. You don't have to spend a penny to enjoy a day at Brooksby, there is even a small animal farm with goats, chickens, sheep, and other animals. The produce isn't inexpensive, but the cider and apples are superb. Every time I go I'm grateful for this historic place that could easily have become a condo development like "Brooksby Village".

I stopped into the farmstand store today and picked up some peaches, blueberries, green beans, zucchini, corn and rainbow carrots. I love this store the veggies look great. Every time I've shopped here it's been clean and they have a great selection of yummy looking foods. I'm vegan so I am limited to what I buy here but they have some really delicious looking gifty foods. The blueberries were a really good price and were absolutely delicious, I hope they have them next week. I never see flies in the store unlike a very popular place up in Ipswich. If a grocery store isn't clean I am not shopping there.

Great time with friends, delicious apples that are a bit pricey but worth the taste and freshness. Apple cider donuts were warm and delectable! Beautiful place to visit!

A friend and I were in town from Chicago, and our main goals were to spend time in Salem and Boston. While here in Massachusetts, we perused Yelp for recommended pumpkin patches, specifically patches where we could find some real apple cider and cider doughnuts, and all roads led to Brooksby! We were blown away by the gorgeous trees leading up to the farm from the main road, and already we were hooked on all Brooksby had to offer. We arrived at the farm in the afternoon on a Friday in early October, and there was plenty of parking available. The giant red barn was welcoming and made for an authentic autumn experience, and when we went inside we felt like the season of fall was giving us a warm embrace. While inside the barn, we found plenty of locally-made treats, and most importantly, we found both cold and warm cider, and warm doughnuts! Doughnuts on their own are $1 each or available for purchase by the bag as well. We each grabbed a cider and doughnut, and walked around the pumpkin patch enjoying our snacks. After taking some adorable pumpkin patch photos and meeting some cute animals like llamas and goats, we finally felt like we were experiencing New England in autumn like a local. Thanks so much, Brooksby Farm!

Definitely take a trip here, there are apples to pick & store to buy other goodies from. There are several varieties of apples to pick from but of course it depends on the time of the year you go. It was hard to figure out some of the apples since there was no map or noticable signage. I ended up going to the store & spending way too much money on many of their baked goods. Well, let me just say it was way worth it. I am such a fan of everything pumpkin so getting muffins, bread & pie are the way to go. There are also the cider donuts that are made in a separate area but also necessary to get, they are delicious. So if you have kids there is an area of some animals there too, but don't bring your damn strollers, as you are on rocky grass & dirt.

Great field to apple pick in. Enough said. That being said. There are tons of rules posted on their website and signs when trying to enter. Yet once you're in the field? Anything goes. No mask enforcement or social distancing enforcement whatsoever

I Think it absolutely you have the nerve to charge $40.00 for a small bag of apples. We use to bring our kids there for an inexpensive family day and recommended it to others. well that has changed never again .I understand covid has affected a lot of business and you have to try and make it up for the upkeep but not $40.00 for about 15 apples. I will never come back

My kids love it there in the summer It's free for kids to plan in their sand box Love it Highly recommended

Very reasonably priced place to go apple picking AND pumpkin picking AND berry picking! Also really amazing picture spots with the pumpkins and daisies and almost everywhere. Everyone who works here is really amazing too. The cider is decent, though none of the food and drinks are that impressive. The atmosphere and people are spectacular though!

Stay away from this place if you're looking to save some money by picking your own fruit. For my mother and I to pick 2 pints of blueberries, it cost TWENTY dollars. We could have gone to another farm and bought 2 pints for cheaper, and not had to pick them ourselves. Their system for charging makes you pay per person and per pint. I've been going to pick-your-own farms my whole life and never experienced anything like this. Why should the customer have to pay EXTRA to provide the labor of picking? It just doesn't make sense. While picking the berries, I noticed a massive poison ivy plant growing up and around one of the bushes. Definitely not a great place to have children, or anyone, picking berries from! Other than that, the picking itself wasn't bad except for the loud blaring hawk noises they play over a speaker to scare away birds. I understand this is there to protect the fruit, but again, I've been picking berries my whole life and haven't ever had to endure such loud noises blaring in my ear. I will say that despite the awful prices, it is a beautiful farm. Additionally, there were plenty of ripe berries and we filled our pints all the way up fairly quickly. If you just want to go and pick your own for the fun of the "experience" and don't mind being ripped off, this might be the place for you.

The farm is small so don't expect variety of apples for picking. We only had one type of apples to pick today. Employees were friendly and there was a tractor trailer driving customers around the orchards. I wish they have more cashiers so the line would move faster.

The two cherry trees that had edible fruit on them had people crowding around them. The rest of the cherry trees had rotten moldy fruit and the birds had eaten parts of the fruits. It was gross and I would imagine it was a health hazard. All the rain lately causes berries to get moldy easily and this was also the case with the raspberries. They should not have been letting people into those orchards but I get the feeling they are quite greedy. There are signs everywhere forbidding you to taste what you pick. They don't even give you bags for your berry basket because they don't want you to have any more than exactly what you buy. Do you understand how much food waste happens in these orchards? God forbid someone have an extra bite of fruit. All in all we spend $30 on berries. And this would be fine because because it's also about the experience. Unfortunately it was a horrible experience.

This is a good place for fresh veggies and food but it is also a GREAT place to take your kids on a tour of a farm with animals, apples picking, berry picking, etc. We love this place.

The best. It is imperative that you come early in the season, though- because everyone knows they're the best. Apple picking on a week day is ideal, but if not- be patient and probably go for a smaller bag. The donuts are the real draw here. And if you come on a cooler day (or are just a dare devil), the warm cider is way better than the cold (also good but doesn't even hold a candle to warm). There's also animals and you can buy feed in the store. Other pros? A pumpkin patch, and all sort of goodies in the store- from veggies to cookies to honey.

Came here as a group during the last week of September. We could still easily find plenty of (sweet and big) apples. I guess this can vary each year depending on the weather and number of visitors. Raspberries were not ripe yet, which was a bit unfortunate, but their donuts were great! Nice place to take photos as well. I recommend visiting in the morning to avoid the crowd.

Looked like a nice place, but after fighting for a parking space and waiting in line at the orchard we were told their dog policy changed "last week". Post a sign, or make your policies visible online.

We held our wedding here Sunday August 5, 2018 and it was absolutely magical! Tammy did an exceptional job coordinating our day and did so without any fuss or added stress! Highly recommend Smith Barn at Brooksby Farm for any event - especially a wedding! We had 190 guests and never felt crowded!

Apple orchard was confusing, there were only 3 signs for all of the orchard. Grass and weeds were very overgrown. Didn't seem well maintained at all. Ive been to way better farms.

What a charming place! But note to self- come earlier in the season. They aren't kidding when their site says their season lasts from 9/9-10/9. We were just there over the weekend, and almost everything was on the ground. Despite the long line..my hub still waited for those cider donuts. The threenager and I stayed cool in our car :-P

Stopped by the farm store for some apple cider donuts and left with a ton of fresh local veggies and fruit. Staff was very helpful and friendly. And donuts did not disappoint!

Lovely location and farm! We stopped by for some apple cider donuts and ended up checking out everything else they had to offer (except the apple picking). The staff was very friendly and they had tons of fall tears to offer. However, our only disappointment was that they only had regular apple cider donuts without the cinnamon sugar coating. I personally prefer the sugar coating. But if you like the plain donuts, you'll like these just fine. Other than that, I highly recommend!

This spot is not dog friendly anymore and we weren't told until after we purchased our bags

My lack of enthusiasm may be in part to the later period of the season we went, but most of the apples were picked already except those very high in the trees. There were trees with a couple of apples still, but none the staff provided these instructions so there was a lot of aimless wandering and searching on an unnaturally hot fall day. The place is definitely popular, so the line at the farm stand proved quite unmanageable. The animals consisted of some hens and sheep. The playground was some old toys, similar to those that are sometimes left on neighborhood playgrounds for all to enjoy. I love this type of thing, but I don't love it when it comes with a price tag. I have gone to other places a bit further north and will go back to those in the future. This day was pretty much a bust.

Apple picking mania! Hot cider, warm donuts and farm animals...check! Brooksby Farm was a great way to spend a sunny fall afternoon. It's on vast acreage with tons of apple trees. They surely will not be running out of apples. I found the apple peck prices reasonable cause there was no separate admission charge. About $7 for 15 apples in a bag, then the prices goes up slightly with the bigger bags. You can take a hayride out to the orchards for $3 each or $5 for 2 people. Even if your not picking its a fun way to get a tour of the land. From the hills you can see beautiful foliage all around. The country store inside is loaded with so many goodies, all home made or locally made. They had a huge selection of canned jars of everything from jellies to soy candles. Then bagged pastries, pancake mixes and bread. Even frozen dessert and chicken pies. If your looking to make a gift basket for someone you could get a bunch of neat stuff in there. You must go into the back of the store and try one of the warm cider donuts with a hot cider. They are out of this world. Then take them outside and walk around the land. You'll encounter hogs, chickens, turkeys, ostriches, llamas, sheep, goats and maybe some others I'm forgetting. The pumpkin selection was in the hundreds, all shapes, sizes and colors, then around 50cents a lb. Also gourds and decorative corn too. Go here for a country getaway! There is plenty of parking and so much space that you won't feel crowded even if its mobbed on a beautiful fall day.

Beyond disappointed for the response to weddings during the pandemic. My cousin had her wedding booked for this September and due to covid they asked if they could re-book to 2021 and the venue said they could but would have to start the payments over again, mind you they were basically half way paid for the wedding they were supposed to have this year at the same venue, same time of the year. We understand everyone has been affected by this pandemic, but this was their ideal wedding and to say how the venue handled the situation was far from ideal is an understatement. If you do book here i hope you have a fairytale ending, just hope some world wide pandemic and penny pinchers don't get in your way.

I would give this zero stars if I could. I went to a wedding at smith farm they accused me of pouring my own alcohol into a glass of ice. I had gotten ice at the bar because they did not deliver ice water. I was getting lip stick not pouring alcohol. So rude. Will never consider an event here it was so offensive.

Best part are the animals and the tractor ride. Not a lot of apples , not a lot of sorts and very pricy. Honestly we had a good time but not because the farm was awesome but because it was a family day. I don't think I would ever be back there again. I have been to other farms that at much better selection of apples. It felt like going to a store with 80% of shelf's cleared.

Go elsewhere. A truly frustrating, overpriced, experience. Picking apples would have been fun, had they had the number of trees needed to have any decent apples left for the hordes of pickers there on this Sunday afternoon. The store, forget it! A mob scene. Crazy making. A terrible experience.

The orchard they had us picking in had barely any apples on the trees. The ones that did were rotten most needed a apple picking tool to reach which they were out of..rather drive and hour north, where the trees were filled with apples.... There rules of a small bag allows two people in, we came with three adult and were forced to buy the bigger bag and only fill half way as we don't need all those Apples. Worst experience of apple picking that we have had. We will not be back.

We visited the second week of September on a weekday morning. It was the perfect time to stop by; we strolled around the farm and fed the animals with very few others around. We visited the store and enjoyed a donut! Beautiful place to visit only 15 minutes from where we were staying near Boston.

I love coming here in the fall for apple picking, apple cider, and apple cider doughnuts! The line is always long for cider and doughnuts, but that's because they're amazing! They also have a great selection of treats for your pups! I look forward to coming here every year!

I'll preface this review by saying that I KNOW it was a drought year and overall apple picking will have slimmer options. That being said, Brooksby Farm did a pretty poor job with customer service this year given the worse crop. It's a shame I had such a bad time because last year's picking here was such a pleasant experience. My boyfriend and I drove up to the lot where we were waved quickly into a long line of cars with no friendly hi from the attendant or description of where we were going. The orchard seemed mobbed much to our surprise because last year (mid-October visit) we were with maybe 10-15 other pickers. We were funneled into a line that said exit and I was worried they were turning us away if the lot was full, even though we had seen cars behind us waved into the orchard lot. Turns out, we were shuttled into the store parking area where we did find a spot with little wait, but a simple sentence from the attendant would have made us less concerned! Driving by, we saw quite the line for the small stand to purchase a bag for picking. We get out of the car to see a HUGE line for the apple cider doughnuts. I was surprised given the total lack of crowds last year, but still willing to wait for the doughnuts. My one positive comment about the service of the day was that the farm store operated one door for the doughnut line and allowed customers who were just purchasing other store items in without waiting in the line. We decided to divide and conquer and my boyfriend waited for the apple picking bag while I got doughnuts. He beat me by 15 minutes maybe out of about an hour total wait. Because we had such a pleasant experience last year he decided to upgrade to the 1/2 bushel bag. Never did anyone mention during the sale that apples were slim. Our spirits boosted by the delicious doughnuts despite the very frustrating lines, we went out to the orchard to pick. Much to our surprise, the area we went last year via the hayride truck at the far end of the orchard was totally closed off. We talked to one surly worker who told us the area right next to the stand to purchase bags and "across the street" was open only. The grove next to the farmstand was quite literally empty of apples. The grove across the line of cars was only Cortland and Empire and was pretty slim as well! Many of the apples were rotten or had insects, and the "good" ones were even often scarred. Most of the available apples were quite high and were only reachable by adults, and even then the extended picking arms were needed. Only by accident, and once our bag was nearly full, did we happen to notice people picking across the paved street. I'm not sure if the area was just opened but NO ONE, not the parking attendants, not the people who sold the bag, not the store workers, had mentioned to us that part of the orchard was open. It wasn't a huge grove, but the apples were larger and the trees had clearly not been picked much yet. It would have been great for short kids with short arms to actually be able to pick. We would have loved to have picked in that portion before our bag was all full. There were also Macs in that area which we hadn't gotten any of up to that point. Brooksby could have saved my opinion of them with easy changes. 1) Friendlier service that better communicated the parking and crowd situation. 2) HONEST AND UPFRONT communication about the varieties that were open for picking and the state of the trees. We probably would have purchased a smaller bag. 3) Updated information on the website so we could have avoided this mess entirely.

Done with Brooksby, the bag prices have gone through the roof, and when we started picking the apples they're were poor and rotted. Not to mention you had to climb the trees for any decent apples and the country store prices were jest as insane as the bags.

I just went to Brooksby I was beside myself the way I was treated. I said you guys looked closed are you open? The lady tells me they closed at five. I said to her you should fix online hours because I googled it and it says your open till six. She tells me no it doesn't that's what it says for tomorrow. I double check it obviously says 6 o'clock all week long. Employees should never tell people that they are wrong especially when they're right they get one star from me and I will personally be boycotting this place for the rest of my life. Which is unfortunate because I live right down the road. I hate rude people there what's wrong with this country.

APPLES, many of them, ripe for the picking. I have never seen this many apples in my life. The orchards I have visited in the past pale in comparison to this one. They have some apple trees at this place that are "Giving Tree" in size. Prices are fair, you can get a half peck for $7 (about 15 apples), a peck for $12 (about 30 apples) , or a half bushel for $22 (a lot of fucking apples). I also had my first cider doughnut here which was amazing. The smell outside of the store was so intoxicating it would have been impossible for me to not succumb. This was the best friggin' doughnut I have ever had, so cinnamony and still hot.
