It was such a cool first experience here. I can’t wait til it gets colder, perhaps during fall so we can come here again. Such a vibe, they got seats under shade and even barrel style tables to stand and drink while you listen to the live music. Didn’t stay long because it was too hot for my little one.

We went to the Mellano Farm Stand for a strawberry festival. It was full of fun activities, delicious food and welcoming vibes.
There was live country music, strawberry u pick, zinnia flower u pick, food trucks, tractor ride, bounce houses and summer games.. Our entire family enjoyed the visit and will come back again for future festivals such as the watermelon festival in July!

Beautiful farm land, the only issue I had wasn't about to get around with my walker loose rocks and gravel everywhere. The staff were awesome. They were all so helpful, and even the volunteers were helpful and greeted us with a smile. Had fun

Lovely spot to relax and enjoy the beautiful fields. They put on a nice, relaxed event that was family friendly. I'm looking forward to a possible pumpkin patch visit.

We absolutely love visiting the farm! They have pumpkins they're growing a corn maze and the wildflowers and sunflowers are spectacular

The corn maze is so fun. My son loved every minute of it. I’ll be going back. They do tractor rides have vendors come out and music. It’s a fun fall festival.

Always have the best watermelon. They have different color watermelon, and they are always so fresh! Also went to the watermelon festival the other weekend, and it was cool that they hosted a free event, with live music. It was fun to get a watermelon lemonade, listen to the music, take a photo with the watermelon backdrop and buy some watermelon for later. Drove out the next weekend to buy more because it was so good!
