Goebbert's Farm Market Reviews

I think it is a great place. I think it is very over priced at $16 per person. Kids and adults same price. Extra charge for everything. I had guy next to me say to the cashier its getting as bad as Disney.

Good place for family time, fun for kids all ages.

Great place for fresh vegetables corn is fabulous they have lots of nice plants to buy.

horrible place where animal abuse is rampant. the ponies are chained together & forced to walk in circles all day long. the camels are also not taken care of and are also confined to walking around in a very small space. it is quite obvious to anyone who looks at them that they are sick and/or injured and are quite unhappy. last but not least, a giraffe in illinois in the fall & winter-really?

do yourself & the poor, suffering victims a favor and please avoid this place at all cost. instead go to places which choose to not exploit animals in the name of profit.

We love this place the produce is always fresh. Such a large garden center if they don't have it nobody does!

Very nice place to go with the children. Animals to see and ride, food, pumpkins, haunted house, wagon ride, some craft items for sale and apples and vegetables. Free parking

Love Goebbarts!!! Been visiting here since 1992. Always agreat time rain or shine. Ample parking, east access off Route 72. Great selection of vegetables, very reasonably priced. Lots of apples and pumpkins. Pig races, farm animals, feed Ernie the giraffe. Great for kids 1 and up, tons of activities. Check their website for further details and pricing.

This place has great produce.
Also local baked goods & ice cream.

Always fun to come by for the fall. Cool stuff to buy in their food shop.

First time here with my 4.5 year old. Really awesome place! My son had a great time (and my wife and I had a great time too). Will definitely be back.

The only place i purchase plants for my garden...always well maintained excellent plants that last a long time

Owner, Lee, and Marketing director, Sue, are extremely rude and unpleasant. I'll be getting my pumpkins elsewhere.

It was great. We got there 2 hours before closing so we were rushing through it but it's very spacious and there's alot for the kids to do and for the adults as well. There's animals, jumping pillows, a huge play area. There's also pony rides and camel rides (which you pay for separately). There's also an endless amount of pumpkins, Halloween decor, fruits and vegetables as well as flowers. There's alot to do here! It was a drive to get here but worth it

Place for apples, pumpkins, fall decorations, sweets, and baked goods -fall 2019

Lots of things to do for the kids. Wonderful environment.

Our family always has so much fun when we visit Goebbert's! They have great choices and lots of things to entertain kids of ALL ages and adults too! Their haunted house is innocent enough for our 7 year old to go into and scary enough to where I still screamed! We love Goebbert's and will continue to come back multiple times a year every year.

I know a lot of folks love to come to Goebbert's in the fall for hay rides, the corn maze, pumpkins and so much more. That goes for me, too. That said, I really like the market. I could hang out there for hours. There are all kinds of great treats to be had. I especially like the Rice Krispy-based treats on a stick with Halloween and fall-themed designs drawn on them. Plus, they're made right around here in my home town of Antioch. I'm glad to see the Goebbert family supports local businesses. That means a lot to me. The hardest decision to make about a visit to Goebbert's Farm is picking a location. Do I go to Hampshire, or do I pick South Barrington? They are both great! Thank you Lee, Kelly, Holly, Jacob, Emily and everyone else at Goebbert's!

Great place to not only get pumpkins but, have a fun time. There are places to get food and kids area.

Excellent for a family day away from everyday good ranch ambience

Great place, gets quite crowdy though. Fun for the kids. Corn maze and animals were fun.

I always enjoy coming to Goebbert's with my school. There is always a lot of fun to be had here!

Very fair price for the experience! The Hot Cider was especially tasty. Seeing the animals was a nice treat.

This place is a Halloween gold mine! Pumpkins are way over priced. But the amenities are perfect. Petting zoo, tractor rides, haunted house, maze, fun wood cuts of cartoons to take pictures with, large wood toys for kids to climb on, sweet popcorn, corn on the cob, crafts, home made pies and treats. You can spend as much or little as you want.

we enjoyed a lot, it is mainly for kids those will play very good at this place.

Great for kids and family... You can feed the animals and restroom if very clean

We prefer Sonny Acres.

We drove down from Minnesota to specifically go to Sonny Acres. We tried this place on our last day, and we will stick to Sonny Acres.

Pro's:
-The Jumping Pillow was separated by height ranges, making it fun for kids of all ages to enjoy.
-Large play area with a good variety for all kids to enjoy.
-Decent selection of food.
-Private changing/nursing area.

Con's:
-Lack of seating, need more seating all around the area.
-No recycle bins, tons of waste that could be recycled.
-More trash cans in general.
-More handicap accessible seating.
-DON'T CHARGE ADULTS TO ACCOMPANY KIDS. $16.99 IS INSANE. We saw this charge on the website, wanted to try it, wasn't worth the money.
-$6 on the Jumping Pillow is nuts. Your competition does unlimited. Parents are looking for bang for their buck, this makes parents be very selective.
-Include the same menu options in both food locations, or post menus outside both doors before they are stuck in long lines.
-Increase the animal enclosures if you are going to have them.

We won't be back, we will stick to Sonny Acres. Spent less money and got a better experience for our whole family.

Beautiful place and great entertainment and food! It was a bit pricey but worth it I guess

Grest selection of annuals and vegetables. Been shopping there for over 20 years. They never disappoint.

My daughter went to the farm with her school and it was pretty bad as soon as we got the we went into a tent to eat lunch tables are dirty no napkins no silverware no nothing after that went to go see a quick promotional movie which I don't see the point then went on the hayride and then some caged terrible looking alpacas and goats their main thing is the animals cause it took 2/3 whole tents and the poor animals looked so sad. So after that they went on to see the giraffe also looked pretty bad not enough space for the animals enclosure then one slide plus if you're on the school trip you can't use all the playgrounds and jumping pillow or whatever cause 4/5/6 year olds won't definitely enjoy that right this was a pretty tiresome and sucky trip if you're going to a pumpkin far try Bengstons Pumpkin Farm

Large nursery with all of your garden needs. The fall fest is great and is always busy. Great for the family.

Beautiful selection. Anything you are looking for they have.

It's a fun place to bring the kids. Pricey but it will make them smile.

Giraffes and other exotic animals have no place at an overcrowded pumpkin farm. Check out one of the other many farms that don t exploit these beautiful creatures.

Good place to take the kids. Lots of activities. Very pricy. $15 for 3+ and they upchage for additional activities. Hay ride is lame. 3.5 stars.

This is a great place to bring the whole family. The food court is decent, and the kids love the giraffes and the exotic animals.

Price is great and they always have different plans.

Great!
Brought kindergarten/elementary students and they had a great time! Will come again for sure!

Anything good about this place is overshadowed by the maltreated exotic animals. There are tropical /hot climate animals that are out in the cold. There are animals crammed into tiny pens.

The place is awesome, but they are not ready to support so many people at the same time. Nightmare to get out of the parking by the end of the day.

Excellent place to bring your kids and family for a great pumpking patch experience

It s a nice place to visit this season. I recommend it, specially during weekdays.

The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Great place to spend time with the family!

Great place to spend time with the kids. So many different things for kids to see and do. You can spend a long time here easily.

Over priced for sure, but a great time for the family. Lots of animals to feed or pet and lots of things for kids to do. Will be going back next year.

A beautiful family friendly farm for the suburbs. I recommend going during the fall around Halloween. It is well decorated, there is pumpkin picking and hayrides. I love their freshly made pies and produce.

It is an excellent place to enjoy with family and friends

Been going here since I was a kid every year in the 90s to pick out my pumpkin. Still an awesome place! Now that I take my kids.These days. I don't know of its the county taxes but its almost non affordable to enjoy the whole place.. there should just be 1 cover price per person for all the attractions. Don't know if we will be able to continue the tradition...

Overpriced, and they changed the wagon ride. Extremely boring.

Took the kids here and they had a blast! Would definitely recommend for an outing with the family.

Love it!!! Second year we are going there! I love it!

Not worth the price. 15$ to get in and then you pay for every other thing on top of that. Feels like it's mainly to make a profit. Quite crowded on the weekends. Okay for kids to see the animals other than that not worth it.

Beautiful but I don't see the of having animals in danger of extinction. They look so sad.

It is a very pleasant place but if it is accompanied as a family it is fun to watch your children and colleagues have fun, especially what we are experiencing today.

It was nice to be back even with covid changing things.
They did their best given the circumstances.

Best pumpkin patch. They have everything. Giraffe and all sorts of animals to feed.
