Fruits & Veggies near Pataskala, OH

“This was my first time to lend fruit farm, but it surely will not be my last. They had fresh fruit and vegetables and giant gourds amongst other wonderful of the usual suspects apples oranges corn those things you expect to see and then a few great surprises. It was definitely worth a ride and based on it’s size. I could just tell and smell the freshness when you walk in the building and or outside. Each Vendor was pleasant. I will be making this one of my regular fresh fruit and vegetable stops.”

“Really cute fruit farm with tons of activities to do outdoors year round. I'd say their big attraction is their gigantic indoor market which boasts tons of gifts, lots of homegrown food and preserved (jams, jellies, salsas) foods, and even frozen options and pastries. They also have a really expansive apple patch which is pretty cute too. NOTE: Almost all activities are outdoor. Their market/barn area is "indoors", but they had all of the doors open for nice airflow. PROS: -Their farm market is impressive! It's huge - and has a gigantic variety of everything. It feels (honestly!) like an entire farm's market packed into a single building. We came for pumpkins and apples, but we could have easily picked up tons of various vegetables for meals that week. -Lynd's makes lots and lots of stuff. Salsas, jams, pickles, and tons of other homemade goods. It's really cute to see. -We've been here before, and we had an amazing time at their Sunflower Patch for pictures last year. The Sunflowers were beautiful, the owner was laid back, and the props were adorable for pictures. (Bee central, but to be expected!) Weirdly enough, I had zero idea that Lynd's had a market, pumpkin patch, or anything else when I went to the Sunflower patch. They're so far away from one another that I had zero idea until this year. -The apple and pumpkin field is GIGANTIC. If your goal is to get lost in apples and pumpkins (for fun or pictures), this is, for-sure, the place. I wish they had an option for entrance without apples - or even a tiny bag of apples. I don't think we eat, in a year, as many apples as their basic "picking" bag option was. Each apple type is nicely labeled, though, so if you have a preference, you can pick your faves. CONS: -This property is expansive AF, and most of the activities are located a (literal) drive away from each other. Apple cannon appeared to be across the highway road, and the pumpkin/apple patch was a five minute drive from the market itself. As long as you have a car, it's not a huge deal, but it's a bit less immersive to need to pile back into the car and get somewhat lost trying to find the thing. More signage (maybe an online map?) would help too. -Some people appear to make the walk from the market to the pumpkin/apple patches which are that 3 minute drive away. Unfortunately, there's no real "walking path" which means that they're walking down the car road - and it's a slow, slow drive while you wait for people to realize they need to move. The car's path through the patches is actually wiggly - I imagine they could put in a walking path that was pretty close of a Point A to Point B. -Getting the warm/fresh food/treats here didn't feel particularly fun. The lines were moving molasses-slow, and I didn't see anywhere to sit/snuggle and eat the treats. We waited the 15 minutes for a hot apple cider and walked around the market with it as a compromise. -Earlier close on the weeknights. With a 7PM close, we'll never get to see the cute sunset at the pumpkin patch here.”

“Great place to stock up on every day staples for an affordable price! They generally have great specialty items that are fun and different but once they are gone you won’t find them again. Their cinnamon rolls are the best!!! Aldi has a nice selection of produce but be sure to examine before you buy. Overall we love shopping here.”

“We went to Doran's today for the first day of u-pick strawberries. I liked that we were assigned a row to pick, and there were guides in the field that gave out advice and knowledge!Everyone was super nice!There were lots of goods to purchase on the way out such as veggies, sauces and jams, baked goods, ice-cold drinks, and more!”

“Parking lot can be a cluster but the store is great. Always clean and stocked. It’s be great if people stopped leaving their carts in the middle of the aisle to wander down another aisle to shop ?.”

“It's Christmas Eve and I just wanted to pick up a few things. This store is beautiful! The shelves were fully stocked and I got everything on my list. Which never happens at Kroger or Walmart. I think this must be a great company to work for!”
