Mount Pleasant Farms

Had a wonderful day with the kiddos. The fall theme was awesome. Plenty to do from tractor rides, corn mazes, a barrel train, pumpkin patch, kids play area and farm animals to pet and feed. The corn mazes had informational questions all about to help you get through the maze. They also had a pit filled with corn for the wee ones to play in.

We’ve been here a few times and my kids love it. They have a nice play area and numerous things for kids to do. My son loves the train and the sand pit. They also have a fun set up with tires. It’s a really beautiful property and it’s nice to walk around. We love seeing the farm animals and getting a chance to go in the market. The Strawberries are fantastic!

This was fun. Small farm. Fun corn maze. You have to go to the store. They have so many great southern farm favorites there! Various ciders, large selection of jams and jellies and canned veggies. Fresh veggies. Honey sticks. Cider doughnuts. Persimmons. Great for kids. They have the barrel train and play areas and animals. Pumpkin patch and wagon rides around the farm.

This farm does not post on social media if their orchard is open for peach picking until about an hour or more after they open. So imagine it’s July, you live an hour away and want to pick peaches as soon as they open before the heat index gets dangerous. You have a pretty good guess based on monitoring their Facebook that there will be enough ripe fruit. Wrong. It would be a fruitless trip (pun intended) because when you arrive you’ll that they aren’t doing peach picking that day.

Awesome place. I had to pull the kids away from the Fall Festival after hours of fun. This is one of the best pumpkin patches for kids. So much to do, and the unlimited wrist band is the only one I have found around. Who wants to pay $4 every time their child wants to take a ride?? Super friendly staff, actual challenging corn maze, hayride, train ride, horse ride, corn pit, sand pit, play area, and petting zoo. Highly recommend!

We came by as we were going back home, we are from out of town. We had a wonderful afternoon picking peaches and getting fresh vegetables. Our grandaughter loved the bounce houses and play area. Cole was amazing, he was so pleasant and you have a true asset as him as one of your employees. He is a really nice young man. Thanks for a fun filled afternoon.

Hosted an even that required tickets to be purchased ahead of time but did not make it explicitly clear. Turned away my wife, alone with two crying kids, because they couldn't be bothered to buy more than the exact amount of candy per ticket purchases. Also had a past interaction that was just odd when we went to their farm by accident. A farm that is open to the public but doesn't quite know how to healthily interact with the public? Plenty of other farms who have it right.

This is a wonderful place to come and pick some seasonal fruit and see some cute animals!

This is an Amazing place. I bought pies from here to give to neighbors and friends for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Anything, purchased from here is Phenomenal! Celia Herron

Beautiful farm and animals. We tried to pick peaches however the season was over. Staff was very helpful and friendly.

I LOVE u-pick farms, so I stopped by Mount Pleasant Farms last week because the peaches and blackberries are ready for picking! My sister-in-law has been living here for quite some time and always misses out on the peaches because they are usually sold out by the time she arrives, but I think the trick is to go right when they open! I heard a lot of locals come early and pick them out fast! - Blackberries - The blackberry bushes are located in the back. There were quite a lot of berries to pick. These were actually really sweet and not tart at all. Be careful if you have little kids though, blackberry bushes are thorny! Scratched myself a few times. They sell the blackberry baskets for 75 cents or you can bring your own. I forgot how much it is per lb, but it's definitely more expensive than the grocery store, but I don't mind. You can't beat freshly picked fruit! Peaches I opted for the 1/4 peak bag as it is approximately 3lbs and since I already picked some blackberries, I kept it to a reasonable amount. They have the clingstone variety and oh my GERD, the aroma of these peaches are intoxicating! How else can I describe it but really peachy?! They were great when they were firm, had a nice crunch and still sweet. The best is when you leave them on the counter for another day or so and they ripen a little more. They are so delicious! The bags for the peaches are provided (I've attached a pic with the prices of each bag size). Note: they only allow certain lanes of trees to be picked for the day, so once they are picked out of that lane, they'll shut it down. Orchard Store Like any market store, their store carries homemade goods like jams, butters, salsas etc. They also carry produce from farms nearby or nearby states. I also caught a glimpse of the Oberweis truck making a delivery so they carry some of their milk too. I bought some local corn (it's the white variety, sweet, but very starchy) and their homemade medium salsa verde (haven't had a chance to try this yet, but when I do, I'll report back). There is a large play area for the kids, equipped with wooden trains, sand area, tractor tires, giant Connect 4 and a little pen with a few goats in it, with a dispenser for their treats that you can purchase for a quarter. Also, it's conveniently located next to Bergey's (wonder if there is a relation), so it's nice to have somewhere to grab a bite to eat and get a treat after a morning of picking in the morning sun! Stay safe, Friends!

Just GO! For a few hours life seemed... NORMAL... well PRE COVID-19. We did wear a mask when we went in the store and paid for our buckets and bags since we wanted to pick peaches and strawberries. They had tires that kids were climbing on, a wooden train, a wooden tractor, goats, chickens, a sheep, and a horse. They had beautiful potted plants for sale out front as well. The cashier was super nice and let us know which way to head to start picking. He also gave us a few pointers to know the peaches will soften in a few days if you pick the harder ones. They had a bathroom inside available as well. No mask needed to pick, it was SO fun. I've never picked peaches so that was a lot of fun. The orchard was so big so everyone was practicing social distancing. The weather was amazing, no complaints. I highly reccomend giving here a try, I know their Facebook page was updated with what stock they had as well. They had pears and apples growing as well.

What a cute farm. This is my favorite to pick peaches. Easy to get to, Lots of easy parking and first thing you do is go into the beautiful store front. It looks like a big red barn. Nice and clean inside and fully stocked with all kinds of jars of goodies. My favorite to pick up pickled beans, pickled asparagus and jellies. They have fresh eggs and a wonderful selection of honey. They sells lots of odds and ends like a country store should. They also have a fantastic play yard. My husband even enjoyed it. They have huge tractor tires you can climb on. A train to play on and all kinds of neat country play ground stuff. They also have sweet farm animals you get to visit. They even have horse rides. My niece and nephew love visiting the farms animals. SO MANY PEACHES!!! It was a really hot day this time so I was so thankful lots of easy peaches to pick. No time at all we had our bags filled, trying not to drop a single peach as we headed back to our cars. It was yet another GREAT successful trip

Don't know what's up with the two names it's also call Bergy's. A nice afternoon activity. You could easily spend up to 3 hours there. I took my grandson and we had the best time holding the piglets, goats and rabbits. We fed the sheep, goats and took a hayride with no hay around the property. It was great introducing my grandson to peace, tranquility and my life after retirement. There's a cost to get in, a separate price for the hayride and a cost for food for the animals, hey, parking is FREE... so be prepared. A nice place for a birthday party, school field trips, etc. There's a cafe/store on the premises so check out my review about what we ate

Its been a while since I've updated my review. I LOVE this farm. This year we decided to try out their ten dollar trick or treating corn maze! I am so glad we did! It was perfect, safe, social distanced, educational and FUN! I would recommend this form or trick or treating next year to any parents who are looking for something fun and safe to do to celebrate Halloween fun! The maze took about thirty minutes, it was a good sized maze! At every corner there are signs with educational questions regarding farming. There were plenty of volunteers wearing masks handing out plenty of candy throughout the maze, this was my toddlers first experience trick or treating and Mount Pleasant Farms made it a magical experience for her! We enjoyed seeing the volunteers all dressed up! Also on the farm are plenty of animals: we enjoyed petting the friendly horses, donkey, and goats who seem to really love people. They have goat food for purchase so don't forget your quarters. They also had a smaller free toddler maze set up along with other apparatuses for children to play on. We love the inside of the farm store, we love the fresh produce they have, squash, apples and all sorts of other produce and sweets. We tried the cookies, yum! The bathroom is always clean here and staff is always so pleasant, we will return soon to purchase some honey!

I stopped by mid October with my 3.5 year old nanny kid on our way to Bergey's Breadbasket for lunch. This was an amazing little find! They have a great play area for kids (I think particularly geared towards younger kids), which was completely free on the weekday we stopped by. No signs indicated there being a charge for the play area but I am not sure about the hay rides... it did seem like they have a pumpkin patch you can get to via hay ride. The play area had some wooden structures of a train and a tractor to play on, a large tire tunnel to run around in, a big sandbox, and a corn pit! This kept my 3 year old entertained for easily a half hour alone. There is also a small "farm" area with a variety of animals, both big and small. The area is very clean and well kept. They had some beautiful flowers for sale on the porch, and inside you find a market with a variety of things: fresh eggs, baked goods, treats, jellies, etc. I'm not sure how busy they get on the weekends but this would for sure be my pumpkin patch pick for a relaxed fall fun experience, especially combined with lunch and more animals next door at Bergey's!

Excellent! I have been to a lot of you-pick farms and this could be my favorite. We paid about $21 for a peck of you-pick peaches (about 12 pounds). You can buy a quarter peck, half peck, or full peck bag to fill. Quarter peck was about $6-7. Sure it's more than the grocery store but it's fresh, ripe, and it's about the experience. The peach orchard is huge, we walked for about 10 minutes and still didn't reach the end. We arrived right at 9am when they opened and there weren't many people, but even with lots of people there would be no problem social distancing. There's ladders placed through the orchard to help you reach the higher up peaches. There's a ton for the kids to do too - sand pit, toy train to play on, and lots of animals to see (goats, sheep, horses, donkey, and chickens). There's picnic benches (included ones covered with a shade tent) for you to sit and eat lunch. I'd say this farm is really well cared for. Even the grass is freshly cut throughout the animal area. I'm happy to bring my business back again!

I've been here once for a pumpkin patch and once for u-pick strawberries. They have goats to pet and a machine to get feed for them. In the fall they have a fun corn maze with a quiz game to help you find your way and a wagon ride. I love the spring strawberry picking too. Check in inside the building and get your basket! Fresh, straight from the plant berries! You can't get much better than that. When you go inside the building they have lots of different goods for sale like meat, duck eggs, pie, milk, ice cream, butter, and candy! There are so many options!

We went during the day, it's more of a store. I googled places to pick apples and it came up. It looked like it would have a few things to do, so we drove an our out of our way on our trip from NC to Salisbury MD. Halloween weekend. They had a couple things for kids to do. No apple picking, nothing really for Adults other than just to shop for snacks in the little shop. The snacks were tasty, but I would not have driven an extra hour just to buy snacks! It said something about a corn maze, but I did not see one; maybe it's got more to do at night. I was disappointed because it was not what I was expecting from the webpage and what I google searched that made me go there in the first place.

We stopped by for fun while passing through from out of town. It's a great place if you've got kids especially in fall. There were lots of families there. Our time there was short because we don't have any kids but we still bought about $30 of treats like mini buckeyes, cookies, and sweet treats. They also had farm fresh eggs. We didn't buy any but it was good to see they had some if you're into that. I felt like the clerk was suspicious of us and I don't know why.

Super cute place. It's Mother's Day and they were so sweet. Because of Covid-19 there were precautions to entering the store. Every thing was clean and organized. Had fun with my friends and family picking strawberries. They were small but still tasty. I got a whole quart. I picked up some mini buckeyes - DELICIOUS!!! Got some ginger snaps! DELICIOUS! Super cute place. Usually they let you bring your own containers but due to cocos-19 they provided the basket. The children's play area was cute but closed due to lockdown restrictions. They hope to open things more this summer.

This market is so well kept, clean and well organized. I also noticed that their farm and their peach orchard was well kept even though it's not peach season. We opted for the hayride which gave us more of a background on the farm. We learned about the people who own the land, when they harvest what fruits and such. The tour guide was very informative and made it fun for the kids that were riding with us. Once we were done we stopped back by the local fresh market and picked up some of their peach cider. I would personally recommend their blackberry or blueberry cider over their peach. I look forward to stopping back by to buy some green eggs!

The strawberries we picked made the deepest color jam I have ever made. Just for reference I have been making strawberry jam over 35 years. The staff were friendly and helpful.

I have now been to this location twice. I found them while searching for local places that offered peach picking. Well this definitely is the spot for that. That have acres of peach trees and they are in abundance and so fresh and juicy. I haven't seen an orchard this well maintained and plentiful in years. But they also have vegetables for sale inside the store for sale and very reasonable prices. If you don't want to go out and pick the peaches yourself they have ones picked you can purchase to. They also have blueberry and strawberry picking in season I found out. Will be coming back for those and peaches next year too.

Very clean and open mini-market. I would love to see them be the center-point in the area and carry all types of local goods vice the small amount of items they did have. The quantity if items was somewhat small, but the tradeoff may be due in part to a good quality. Notable the day I went, the tomatoes they had were giant and very nice and red.

June 2017. Peach picking, farm animals, and stuff for kids to play on. Lots of trees and fruit, not crowded. Lots of fun, friendly staff.

Great peaches and good produce. They even have some vending machines to get food so the little ones can feed the pigs, chickens, etc. outside. Nice shop, always clean.
