Snyder's Farm

Visited for the 1st time on 5/21/2023. On entry, a nice older man directed us to the parking area at which another man assigned us a parking spot. We bought tickets for the strawberry picking and waited briefly for the tractor to pick us up to the picking fields. Pricing was great and the fruit was delicious. All the strawberries were ripe, sweet and juicy. After that, we took a ride back to the main area where we bought tickets for the kids activity area. They had a bunch of awesome attractions and fun activities for them. By the time it was closing time, the kids still didn't want to leave, so that says it all. Overall a great experience and I will definitely be going back with my family again.

Nice place to visit. Tons of photo ops. Lots of mini activities. Better food options please!

A beautiful and cozy farm, an hour's drive from Brooklyn. Lots of fun for children. Here you can buy food, ice cream, smoothies. There are outdoor tables. We were picking strawberries. Very tasty. Admission is $5, children's activities are $7

We loved this farm! Spent 5 hrs there and that wasn’t enough… Captain America throwing candies was a hit! Food was delicious especially pineapple! Also all games and entertainment were amazing! We are coming back next year!

It's ok. The kids had fun but it cost $24 per person, even for a 2 year old. Food is absurdly priced as with all food trucks, $17 for a small pizza, $6 for lemonade. Then you don't find out until you're already in line that some of the rides cost extra, no signs stating that. It's a decent enough place but they really squeeze every last penny out of you.

Had such a great time at the farm! There were so many fun activities for kids, and the food truck options were awesome. I was really impressed by the variety of unique vendors—so many I’d never seen before! The prices were super affordable, and the staff was friendly and helpful the whole time. Definitely worth the visit!

This place is amazing. Family run farm that has an awesome hayride and Halloween setup that is a must see. They set up corn kernel pits, a MASSIVE slide (see my pictures), a small beer garden, tons of food and photography props. I cannot recommend this place enough to families and anyone looking for some fall fun and beautiful farm sights.

Cash only! At least when I went on October 9th. It was 15 dollars for entrance but it includes a good amount of things to do. I added a picture that lists what all is included. When you arrive, there's a hay ride that takes you to the festival from the parking lot! Very kid friendly and lots of photo opportunities. My favorite part was the corn maze and the pumpkin patch. There are a few things that aren't included in the price. I saw a pumpkin cannon launcher that was extra and it was pretty cool to watch! The food isn't amazing and a bit pricey but it's to be expected really at something like this! They had BBQ, lemonade stand, funnel cakes and one of the food trucks had seafood. There was an ATM once inside the festival. It is right in front of the big house.

Cash only place but they do have an ATM onsite with small service fees! At least when I went on October 1st. It was $20(Kinda Pricey) for entrance but it includes a good amount of things to do. I added a picture that lists what all is included. When you arrive, there's a hay ride that takes you to the festival from the parking lot! Very kid friendly and lots of photo opportunities.

The food isn't amazing and a bit pricey but it's to be expected really at something like this! They had BBQ, lemonade stand, funnel cakes, Playa Bowls and one of the food trucks had seafood. Over all a good experience to visit once a year with larger group on nice fall day, support your local farms and farmers!

Always a fun time at Snyger's Farm Fall Festival in Somerset, NJ. Snyders has so much for kids to do. A huge slide with a corn pit, a corn maze, hayrides, pumpkin picking, food trucks, and so much more. Pro tips 1. Bring cash, they are cash only. $20 per person to get into the fall festival, there's usually a line because everyone wants to go, and if you forgot cash there is an ATM but the line for thr ATM seems even longer than the entrance line. Bring more than you think, it can get expensive, pumpkins are sold per pound. 2. Bring an extra bag. They do not allow large bags or coolers, however, there are food trucks, and if you'd like to purchase extra to bring home, the trucks do not have bags. It was difficult to walk around with several funnel cakes, drinks, candy apples, fried oreos etc without dropping anything. An extra bag would have been helpful. 3. Dress in layers. It gets cool quickly in the evening but during the day if it's sunny, it could feel comfortable or hot.

What a great place to go for people of all ages! I went with my bf but saw many families with kids, friends, and other couples. The admission was $24 which was okay but they had a bunch of free playground activities that made it worth it and very lively. Pumpkins you pay depending on the pumpkin, sunflowers were a reasonable price to rent the sheers with the cost contributing to the actual price for the flowers, and some activities require payment but was totally worth it! The employees were nice and helpful. Overall, this was such a nice experience and would recommend!

Admission is $24, which includes flower picking and access to various games and activities. The farm has plenty of open space and charming decorations, creating a great atmosphere. Food trucks are available, and I highly recommend the lobster roll--it was delicious! Overall, a fun and enjoyable experience.

Just went strawberry picking here on 6/1. After around 45-50 minutes drive we arrived around 11 and parked in the field. Great organization form the staff manning the parking. From there it was a short walk to the entrance and $5 ticketing. Bring cash as everything is cash only. If not there is an ATM by the port-a-potties (and another by the fruit weight and check-out). To the left of the parking lot is a $7 entry per kid playground. I couldn't drag my 4 yo away but once we did pay we discovered that a lot of the equipment was too hot to use. A short tractor ride leads to the picking fields; there's enough room and it wasn't too buggy but definitely bring a sun hat and apply sun block. There is one port-a-potty at the fields. Before getting on the tractor back you weight and pay for your berries and present a slip to get on. There are picnic tables with umbrellas and several "selfie stations". They sell local honey and some underwhelming burnt burgers and hot dogs. Skip that, and go to the BBQ trailer towards where the playground is, nice guy manning the grill when we visited and they have chicken, beef, and pork with a few sides available. Quick drive from NYC and will be recommending them to friends for a fun outing.

VERY expensive. $5 per person just to step into blueberry patch. Owner threatened to have me escorted off the property in front of my kids for allegedly sampling a few berries. Then called me a waste of life and complete joke in front of my friends and family after paying $20 for $1 lb of berries ($15 walk-in fee plus $5/lb). Could've picked 4-10 lbs at other farms for the same price without the harassment. On the bright side, friends got a kick out of the situation. Won't be coming back.

I must say... the pricing was a little up there, but for the experience itself (well, we are paying for the novelty of the experience, right?), it was spectacular. Beyond just the strawberry picking, there is a lot for families and young children to do, and plenty of photo spots for adults as well. After paying for some (pretty expensive) strawberries, we spent the afternoon taking photos with some big chairs, the nice house, and playing traditional games. They're also equipped with a park and a duck race too! Super beautiful, wonderful staff, and a fantastic experience!

Way bigger than I expected! Most of it is cash-only so beware. They have ATMs though. A great family environment for ages 2 and up.

Snyder's Farm is making an honest effort at becoming an event spot. There are weekly events through late summer and fall. However the price range on every event is so high our family can no longer we partake. After paying a $10 entry fee per person, which included nothing, I went on to spend close to $200 in other fees. The play area charged not just kids but every adult as well. The bounce house was $5 per five minutes. The food was priced by each food truck. Also, the parking area was a long haul to the event area without a hay ride or even path for strollers. The best part of the farm is their roadside stand for fresh vegetables through the summer. Otherwise skip the events.

I've been coming here for every fall festival the past 3 years. I must say it has been a bit pricey each year, but there so much to do for the kids. It's $20 per person, kids ages 2 and up get charged $20 as well, which I kinda don't agree with, but that's business. Starts with cash only and a hayride to the farm which is awesome. You can bring your stroller and it'll fit. It's very spacious and so much land to move about. They have so many free things for kids to enjoy and some other things like the pumpkin shooter, laser tag and little bounce mat i think are $5 a kid. They have a maze and a pumpkin patch. They have a bunch of food trucks and picnic tables to sit back at. Their apple cider donuts are delish. Great for photo taking. I love taking my kid here just hope it doesn't keep increasing in price.

I wish I could leave a 0 star review. Went to Snyder for strawberry picking and had a horrible experience. We have been to many local farms for picking over the years. We are a mixed race family with young children. We finished picking before the rest of our group arrived (this was a family outing). As we waited for our group, we gave our toddler a granola bar. We were confronted by a staff member who rudely accosted us for sitting in the shade and accused us of feeding our child produce. When it became clear the child was eating a granola bar and not unwashed, muddy strawberries, this staff member pointed to OTHER mixed race children playing nearby and said we were treating the farm like a playground. When we pointed out those were not our children, she abruptly asked us to leave. She may as well have called us "you people". I saw no one else treated this way. We broke no rules. The manager -Beth?- apologized but only after we escalated. This was disgusting behavior. I would not recommend to anyone looking for a wholesome, inclusive, or even pleasant experience.

I came to check this farm out with some friends & on one end was disappointed that it wasn't what we expected. First $15 dollars CASH only is a bit steep considering as an adult not really anything for u to do here, aside from eating & taking pics. cash only is a bit of an inconvenience these days. If it wasn't for the fact that we did have a child with us this would have been a wash out , no apple or pumpkin picking which would have been nice. They had berries I believe for picking but that was not available now. The little hay ride to get back & forth is nice, once inside all u mainly have is a bunch of games & activities for the kiddies great if you bring some kids. We tried the Cider doughnuts not bad , they are served packed not fresh .. they were good the plain & cinnamon ones but fresh cider doughnuts just hit differently. This farms was alright , better & mainly if you have kids.

Insanely over priced, if you come with your family expect to pay near $500 for the day. Smallest pumpkin patch I've ever seen. Not worth it at all

Extremely overpriced, $24 per seat just to get to the farm then another $20 per normal size pumpkin. Better off going to norz or another local farm. Far from worth it.

I would give this place 0 stars if I could. They do not know how to manage their events. There could be presale options for tickets. Or there could be some type of disclaimer about the farm possibly reaching capacity. Instead they send away families after they've driven with their children to come to an event. When I reached out to the farm I got no response. Will never come back to this place.

Such a cute farm for your toddler/ young child. There is so much to do! My 1 year old had a great time walking around, but was a little too young for all the climbing, games, and activities. We will come back next year when he can play on everything available to him. There are food trucks and a picnic area to eat when you need a rest and refuel. So many cute photo opportunities. The pumpkin blast was too loud for us, but looked fun. Our little one also enjoyed picking out his very own tiny pumpkin. Can't wait to come back next year

Lucky I'm giving you a one, this place sucks, I had to pay 20 dollars for each pumpkin and their customers are horrible, they wouldn't let me leave until I pay and they made me and my 3 kids pay 30 bucks for each family! Don't recommend, I'm furious.

Came here around halloween time to watch original Halloween. The set up was cute. And it was easy to maintain social distancing. No outside food was allowed but they had a few vendors with funnel cake, pizza, nachos, go chocolate, etc. They had fire some pits so you can purchase marshmallows for s'mores. The quality was pretty good, better than some drive-in theaters and the sound was crisp and clear. Even though people were talking amongst themselves, getting up for food, nothing was too disruptive. I hope they host more movie nights like this. Even post pandemic. It was a fun night.

I wanted to give this place a 3.5 because although it was well put together, it seemed like there should be more for the kids to enjoy for $12. I had the same issue with Happy Day Farm, so maybe I'm expecting too much and have not fully integrated with the cost of 2018 living? Anyways, we got there right at the opening on a Saturday and we're glad that we did, it starts to get a little bit crowded as the day goes by, and that is typical with all fall festival events on October weekends. We found parking and quickly were able to get on the hayride to the festivities. The space is huge and spread out, so you never feel like you're on top of someone, which is a definite plus. The best part for the kids and adults was the HUGE slide. I couldn't do it, my fear of heights wouldn't allow me to go up, even though I'd have liked to slide down. Anyways, that was a really nice touch. And it was included! Which was odd, because you then had to pay $4 to bounce on a very boring trampoline? The woman wasn't too friendly at first which made it even worse, but then she warmed up. The best part... after paying $4, you had a limited time allowed to bounce... wow. Good thing though, because my 6 year old was ready to get off the thing within a minute. Smh. Another great part was the HUGE house that was decorated perfectly in fall decor. I actually felt as though I was on a movie set. It was so seasonal.. we took some great pics in front of it. I'm not sure what is inside, but maybe you guys could turn it into a haunted house.. now I would pay extra for that! The store was very limited in what it had... some donuts, apple cider, and a few other items. I was shocked... it said store on the website, but maybe should be changed to somewhere in between store and big, covered, stand? Just a suggestion. By the time, we walked past the pumpkin patch, the kids (and adults) were done. And we'd already gone pumpkin picking.. seemed decent enough. I'm glad that I came, but I'm probably good on returning... so many other farms to check out!

Great selection snd friendly service. Never a disappointment here. I have purchased big trees to small shrubs from here and all have been quality and fairly priced.

Discovered this charm 3 yrs ago. And it looks like we are making it a tradition, it's about an hour away from us but love it. They keep adding new things and the kids leave home knocked out happy customer . Please don't raise the prices again.

About an hour away from my house but I would still drive the distance to go to this farm! I've been to a few different ones over the past few years and all in the central jersey area but i immediately fell in love with Snyder's farm! There are sooo many activities to do, whether you're older or with kids! The best part of it all?? Most of the activities are included with admission price or $13! There was one other activity we paid to do which was Pumpkin Cannon where you got three shots for $5! This was actually a lot of fun too, and worth the $5! Other than that, we paid for the pumpkins we picked ($3 for small, $6 for medium and $11 for large sized ones) and some apple cider donuts (6 for $6!) and you can pick if you want them powdered or not. We had a lot of fun between the corn maze, duck racing, hello donuts, hay ride, and pumpkin patch! They also have areas for photo ops! All in all, a great farm to visit! Would highly recommend if you're looking in the area :)

The review is for the Fall season pumpkin activities. Great trip for kids, especially ages 4 and up as they have quite a few activities. Go when it's not hot. The sun makes you tired. Lemonade was just ok. Great for pictures. It's not too large yet large enough so good for kids. You can spend 2-4 hours here depending on how tired the kids make you and how exhausted they get. Cash only! $13 and age 2under free. I suggest you bring snacks and even a sandwich and drinks if it's in the sun. Portable potties only.

This was a fun place for pumpkin picking but the reason why it got one star is because the guy are the picking pumpkins we came out to pay I had 3 small ones and the sign says small $4 medium $8 and large $11 so I ended up paying $15 for 3 small ones but our friends came with us and they got 2 big ones and a small one and they paid the same price $15 so I feel by watching him after we all paid that he was making up prices as he goes wasnt going by what the borad said. Food trucks were ok a few of them ran out of a lot of things by 2:00 in the afternoon.

Paid $8.50 per person to pick berries have dinner and watch a movie in a field. It was going to be a fun night with my family. They ran out of berries in the field before we got there so there goes part of the value. I waited 2 hours in lines for food only to find they were out of chips, and out of nachos. The guy taking the orders got grumpy with me when I didn't know what my wife would want in place of nachos and had to take 30 seconds to call her. All the food was ridiculously overpriced, cold, and soggy. Shorter lines at Disneyland and I spent the whole night in lines with strangers rather than with my family

Very nice farm with lots to do. The farm employees are great and I would highly recommend. What I wouldn't recommend is the bbq food trucks. Wow- what a rip off. CTs I think is the name. Did I say complete rip off with their fake bbq food? Do your self a favor and bring a sandwich... eat it on your car though because you can't bring food in.

Looked fun, but they want me to pay $15 for my 2 years old son for admission, and I think it is too much for a practically a baby

I went to the fall festival. It was wonderful. My family and I enjoyed the great food, and fun activities for all ages.

I Loved Snyders Farm!! I've been to several and this was definitely one of my favorites in Nj. I loved the huge haystack as soon as you enter with the big pumpkin spray painted on it. It felt like fall as soon as we walked in, I loved all of the decorations! There is a cute hayride that takes you to the farm, which has plenty of activities to make everyone happy: slide, face painting, go carts, small petting zoo, pony rides, bean bag toss, haystacks, food trucks, fresh popped popcorn, the BEST apple cider, pumpkin picking, a really cool corn maze, a store that sells home made jam cider donuts, hot sauces etc. Another plus was that it didn't feel over crowded like someOther places. It was such a wonderful morning and to top it off, as we sat on the lawn chairs drinking our Cider, Mrs Snyder herself greeted us!! She was super sweet and told us a bit about the farm and asked us if we were enjoying ourselves. She had such pride and was so passionate about the family owned Farm. That was really the cherry on top of our sundae! We definitely plan on returning again and most definitely recommend Snyders! If you want a Fun fall day, come here.

Finally went to the "fall festival".....amazing. One of the best things to do with kids in the area. They had at least a dozen different activities. Park near the road then take a hay ride onto the farm. Here is what they had... Pumpkin Picking Corn Maze A huge slide Bikes & Mini Bikes Blow up horses Bouncy house Pony rides pumpkin slinging and im sure im forgetting a few others. TAKE YOUR KIDS HERE. Cost is $10 which included over half of the activities, some others require tickets which are just a few bucks.

I would give no star if I can. The lady working there today did not have to be so nasty explaining where to park and that the farm is closed and all they have available is behind her to buy. We asked if there is anything for us to pick and we misunderstood her and thought we can go in and pick corns. Then she stopped us with an attitude and yelled with a nasty frown "I said you can pick corns here from behind me." We did not deserve such rude attitude. She almost ruined our day until we found a very friendly farm Suydam. I am not the type to leave reviews but I just had to for this place so they know what they need to change.

NOT FAMILY FRIENDLY ! Yesterday was my first time coming to this farm from NYC and it's the last as well. We purchased 16 tickets as a family, yes they have alot of activities but what is not worth your money is the disrespect of employee they have. I would have loved to speak to the owner having a worker who is inconsiderate of children and disrespectful to families. My sister in law and I had to go behind their hill slide to change our toddler and baby. We had our own bags to trash the dippers in and dipper bag cover. This worker she was from the hill slide came started insulting my aunt and then confronting my sister-in-law and what's even worse is the way that she came close to my face saying things as if she was there when we where changing them. we had no complain of changing the kids the way we did understood it was a farm and looked for a tea no one was around. until we received that kind of treatment I would not recommend it. The best thing we did was leave her talking to herself and letting her know she shouldn't be working there. Coming from the military that kind of disrespect is disgusting, I will make sure to let out families and and friends know of our awful experience left without wanting to continue doing anything else.

Had been here for strawberry picking. Strawberries were tasty. Had good time with family.

My family had a blast. This is our new go-to destination for fall fun. We're looking forward to coming back for spring & summer berry picking. There is only one reason this isn't a 5 star review STEER CLEAR OF CT BBQ FOOD TRUCK!!!!! I understand this isn't the fault of Snyder's farm, they deserve 5 stars but this truck needs to be shut down. Everything they sold me was overpriced and undercooked. The sides were priced ridiculously considering the portion sizes, they were cold and tasted like crappy leftovers. I waited 30 minutes for a turkey burger only to realize 2 bites in that it was bloody. I've been sick ever since, ruined my weekend.

My wife and I paid $13 a piece to take a tractor ride up to a so so set of amusements for kids (12 and younger). There were a few food trucks but nothing for adults. We were at least hoping for a decent farm store to get fresh produce. But there was nothing. If you have young kids this might be ok but otherwise the admission price is a bit of a scam. I would not recommend this as an autumn destination for anyone but kids and even for them it was a bit lame

Came here for the weekend activities. Hayride to corn maze, kids games, bouncy house. Pretty much everything was included except pony ride and pumpkin cannon. Tons of kids running around. Brought lunch and drinks and there were so many tables to picnic. Will definitely come back every year. -1 star for price. Used to be $10, but they increased it to $12

Our family's favorite farm so far!! Best for pumpkin picking!! Had a huge corn maze and also available for small children (small maze). Fun for every age!

Came on a Sunday with about 10 people and had a blast clean and fun! But the bees!! Omg lol other than that great time !!!!

Looked fun but since we are a family of 5, I couldn't bring myself to pay a $12 entry fee per person.

Great place for the kids. They have so much to do. Corn maze, Pony rides, pumpkin smashing so cool for adults and kids, hayride,variety of pumpkins,corn box to play in and the big slide we all just couldn't get enough of. Captain america who shoots out candy for kids and gives a speech plus we all did the pledge of alliegance. Children and Adults bikes and mini bikes .$12 to enter wasn't bad for a party of 4. So much more to do. All day fun. Sample some apple cider it was delicious. Kind and friendly people. My mom and I actually met the owner which her name is also Helen. Very sweet lady. We will definately be back next year.

Had a really good time yesterday with my family. Really recommend this place $10 per person, under two free! The kids will love it, there's many different activities !

Went back again this week end. Brought a bunch of friend. The kids loved it. The slide is awesome. Way to go guys love it thank you for a perfect day. Had the time of my life today! Some of the nicest people. So much to do so much fun! These guys really go all out to make it such a great experience. Try the pumpkin ice cream it's amazing. Thanks again guys had an amazing time. We will be back with friends.

This place cool for kids under the age of 9. There are plenty of activities for little ones. It's too expensive for my liking. It's $10 to get in. $10 a pumpkin. (They do not charge by weight like most places) We paid to enter and as we are exiting we see people entering free of charge...

We had an amazing time at Snyder's Farm! We can't wait to go back!! It's an incredible value compared to other places we've visited over the years. Included in the $10 admission is a hayride; corn maze; bouncy pumpkin house; corn pits; HUGE slides (potato sack into a corn pit - we spent hours on this one. It was a huge hit with our daughter); countless games - cornhole, basketball/football throwing games, big connect four, bikes, inflatable jumping horses to race, etc.; play structures for the kids. In addition, Captain America and one of the Minions made appearances while we were there. There are a million photo op opportunities all over the property. It's a great one stop destination for all the things I love to do in the fall. There are additional activities that cost extra: pony rides, one of the bouncy attractions, pumpkin cannons and face painting. The hot apple cider is amazing. Don't miss it. The food trucks had a great variety and the quality of the food from the seafood truck was excellent. So happy to support this local family business! We will be back every year!

Visiting snyders farm was an absolute dream. My group made arrangements to come to their weekend fall festival and they were so amazingly accommodating for our Seeing Eye Dogs in training that we had. Communicating with them was fantastic, easy, and our group will make sure to visit regularly since we loved it so much. The actual farm was so beautiful and clean and there was SO much to do. With admission to the festival you essentially get not one but two hayrides which are a fair length to get to the festival grounds. There, there are TONS of games and activities that are appropriate for all ages to have fun. The corn maze was the perfect length and you have the option to take a map when you enter which is easy to follow in case you are tired and want to leave, and it is easy to follow and exit. The pumpkin patch was huge and the prices were cheap compared to other local farms I've been to. There are lots of food vendors that give you plenty of different options as to what to eat and the Snyders Farm vendor was very reasonably priced. I didn't have a single complaint or negative thought during my visit there. It was such an amazing, fun experience and I highly recommend giving Snyders a visit!

Love the fall fest at Snyder's! There is a hayride that takes you through a corn maze up to the festivities. There is a hay slide, pumpkin bowling, corn pit, pumpkin patch (obviously!), wood cutouts to take silly photos and much more! There is usually a food truck of some sort to grab lunch and Snyder's sells apple cider, donuts and other refreshments. The only thing I would change is the price. $10 an adult is a little steep.

Unfortunately, only those who use their facebook page are welcome. Their Fall Festival was scheduled on their website for Sat Oct 1. We drove 30mins to find a sign at the property saying they had cancelled due to weather but only posted that on their facebook page. It wasn't raining and if they typically close the day after rain, they should post that on facebook as well. They should close their website if they choose to only update w/events but not changes. I went to Alstede. Agreed they were double or maybe more than Snyder's would have been, but at least they were open and their website is reliable.

Brought 2 , four year old boys and a 2 year old baby girl ... We all had a blast ! $10 a person gives you a tractor ride over plus access to all the games , rides, and activities . The apple cider was amazing and the farm help were extremely pleasant . The kids were pooped on the way home . Would definitely recommend bringing the family for 2-4 hours worth of fun !

BEST BANG FOR THE BUCK!!! I've been going to these type of events for over 15 years. Snyder's Farm is by far the best place for pumpkin picking, hayrides, games, food, corn maze, etc. ever! They have so many interesting things for our kids to do. Go at your leisure - not like other places where your a number. Staff is so accommodating. Best to go when the weather is good.
