    This is a very nice farm! They had a lot of friendly animals, a store with fresh produce, and homemade icecream! They also had pick your own blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, and vegetables.

    I have left multiple suggestions with Foursquare to edit the address and hours listing. Alstede Farms' address is 1 Alstede Farms Lane, Chester, NJ 07930. The farm is open every day from 9am to 8pm.

    Beautiful farm. Huge variety to pick from: veggies, apples, pumpkins, etc. After you're finished, grab a bite. Perfect food for a crisp fall day. Best fries I've ever eaten and wild mac & cheese!

    Very much a countrytime jamboree & petting zoo. u pick is less about the fruit and more about the experience. Prices are high if you just want fruit @ $16/person incl 1 pint of berries. cute place tho

    A fun place to buy delicious, fresh produce, homey baked goods and fabulous ice cream. Terrific for families because of events, pick your own and a farm animal petting zoo.

    Perfect place to bring the family on a Fall weekend. Pony rides, apple and pumpkin picking, bouncy house and plenty of food. Fresh cider donuts FTW!

    They jacked the prices here in 2017 to an insane degree. On a Friday morning, $26 admission (with tax) for a family of four. Then $7 per pound of raspberries and blueberries on top of that.

    Fantastic apple picking experience though be warned: it's like an amusement park given how crowded it gets!

    Pumpkin picking is really fun. I also enjoyed the wine tasting. Don't forget to stop by the store on your way out to get some delicious cider doughnuts and a pumpkin pie.

    Eat lunch before you go unless you only eat things from a deep frier or microwave. Eat the ice cream or pie in the store.

    For a city girl, I would say this was worth the hour ride. Awesome corn maze even though I wished I knew something about boy scouts, hay ride was interesting and awesome apple cider and cider donuts.

    Worth the hour or so trip. Apple cider donuts are stellar. Try the fried pickles. Animals and hay/tractor rides for the kids. Also, good place for birthday parties.

    It's like a farm theme park, likely because it is one of the closest to NYC. They do nickel and dime you.

    Awesome for Berry/Fruit Picking. Beware the raspberries though - lots of tiny little bugs inside. The Strawberries were pristine and perfect though Read more

    A bit pricier than other farms and no "all you can eat" while picking. But this means far less crowded and better selection of fruits and veggies.

    Good farm. Lousy attitude of managers that work here. If you are looking for a friendly farm go some place else. If you wanna be part of a herd come here.

    Restrooms - 3 urinals 1 stall for men, only 3 stalls for women. Long restroom lines for women, plan accordingly! This place can get busy!

    They GOUGE you for pick-your-own, charging 60% more for blueberries than they do in the store. Most places charge less for PYO.

    $30pp on the weekend, then $40 for a box to pick apples is utterly ridiculously & expensive.

    Unless you don't mind spending the whole day (there is enough to do) come early!!! This place gets packed and everything becomes a 45 minute to an hour wait.

    $15 for a day pass and all you get is pony rides (2 laps) and bounce house? Rip off. Bought a bad of carrots to feed the animals - too bad they were moldy. Yuck.

    Expensive as hell. Really unfriendly. Completely outrageous policies. Will force you to buy even worm infested corn. Crowded and money hungry to the nth degree. Stay away!
