Red Fire Farm Reviews

Great organic selection and nice people. Tomato Festival was small but fun.

They have an awesome corn maze with riddles and other activities. They even had a cute barn cat named cookie running around! That was our favorite part

The tomato festival is one of my favorite events of the year. This year they just had tomato sampling, due to the pandemic, but it was fun and a offered a taste of better times.

Always fresh vegetable. There is no cashier so help yourself and be honest

Nice staff. Pretty location. Very small selection of food items.

I can't really see myself stopping in here again since it's a bit out of the way and there are dozen other options in the area for local produce and goods.

Fresh food, friendly service, great share service.

You can get organic produce almost anywhere now--but not like the wonderful fare on Tuesdays at Red Fire Farm booth at Farmer's Market in Forest Park day.

I had to curb my enthusiasm after picking up red, red organic tomatoes, lovely eggplant and cucumbers and a yellow zucchini, and some peaches and swiss chard, and ground tomatoes (yum--thank you Gabe for your help), and ...well you can see I didn't really resist much.

I can't wait to make my sauteed veggie bowl of onions, garlic, swiss chard, canellini beans and shitake mushrooms (from Urban Artisan Farm booth) with two poached eggs.

This is the freshest produce around, and certainly the friendliest service as well.

I'm sorry, Sevan Sarian, this farm "restores your faith in humanity?" Give me a break. Somebody three posts below you just wrote about the Somali crew torturing animals on the farm.

This is such a good shop, easy to social distance and has a large variety of vegetables for low prices!

Love this farm while Dickson down the road turned us away because we got there to close to there closing time the staff at Red fire where so helpful and friendly this will be the only place I go to pick strawberries in the future top notch customer service

Eh. Most of the plants were dead or dying. Only a few items in the store for sale seemed edible. For instance, the strawberries were mushy and showing early signs of rot.

The girl running things inside was KINDA friendly but all plants were dead. When I asked her why and said it looked like nothing was watered, she looked offended but said "well, that's why their dead"

we didn't pick strawberries because she said they had been mostly picked through, so we looked in the refrigerated case for some. Even most of those, not all, were shriveled.

I was honestly shocked that they were selling dead tomato plants, literally dead.

Travelers, here is a place to buy local, organic foods that include all sorts of fruits and vegetables, cheeses and some meats. Delicious. The vegetables are grown local, in the area. The cheeses and meats are local too. This is a stop worth making.

I love it here! They have the best mums ever and are very clean and organized! They also had two barn cats that were very friendly and came right up to me! I will definitely be coming back!

Great produce, a little over priced, but really quite good.

I absolutely love visiting this organic farm. The staff are always ready to answer questions, and the produce us really incredible! Seeing an organic farm at work restores my faith in humanity!

Great day for the family.

Had my mom, my sister and cousin and three nieces and nephews (2 - 10years old) picking strawberries. All of them were able to pull the strawberries off the vines.

The farm had a strawberry tasting of 12 different kinds of strawberry from watery to sweet to tart.

The fields have different combinations of strawberries so you pick the field best based on your preference.

For people that don't like to much walking it's very field picking fields but you do need to bend down to get strawberries. It was much easier for the kids to get them . Let's just say they did most of the work.

The ground could get a bit uneven at times but good for the most part.

I will definitely visit again.

They do accept debit cards as well.

Cute little farm stand with great decor. Vegetables looked and smelled amazing and were presented in a very nice fashion.

Friendly staff, wonderful CSA program, great produce and tons of options

A trip to Red Fire Farm is always a pleasure. It's great to support a local business. They have a great selection and the staff are always helpful.

Great produce and I love buying locally. A little pricey. I wish the prices were a bit lower.

Super friendly staff! Great produce. Awesome PYO perk for CSA members. Great afternoon with family at the farm.

We visited this farm in the middle of spring because we saw they were selling garden plants. They had a good variety of tomato plants for sale that I've never seen in other larger nurseries, including black cherry, wild, and chocolate stripe. The employees were friendly and helpful.

Inside they were offering free refreshments and a 'door prize' that consisted of your choice of garden plant. They had local honey, pastries, drinks, and freshly grown produce for sale.

The farm also offer co-op farming for fruits, vegetables, and eggs. They have an annual tomato festival in the summer as well.

All kinds of inseason fresh produce. Grown right there. Store is in an old barn

Best quality, best selection, best customer service............. Love this farm!

Very decent mostly locally produced goods. The organic yogurt was especially of very high quality & flavor. Something you can't find in your local supermarkets.

First time visiting & a Cashier rolled her eyes at my special needs child because he was excited to be there. didn't buy anything and will never return.

Love this place. They have seasonally fresh organic produce.
Summer CSA Share is the best deal because one gets to pick other vegetables plus the one they give us every week.

Love this place they have lots of vegetables and fruits and the prices are good and the staff is super friendly

Organic, large farm store with frozen and beverage selections. Pick your own and CSA options

This year's summer share was a joke. I also now know from one of your previous employees that you don't even put out your best things for csa members because you already have their money.
Everything is also very hard to navigate and the quantities of pick your own is worthless to csa. A handful of blueberries?! That's not even worth the time...

Red Fire is a great presence at farmer's markets, and events put on for the community are always enjoyable. However, as a former employee, it was extremely distressing watching some members of the Somali harvest crew mistreat animals that found their way onto the farm. These crew members use hoes to drive out kildeer from their nests when planting over them, throw rocks at garter snakes in an effort to kill them, and once tore a frightened mouse away from nursing babies while management stands idly by. I'm more likely to buy from a farm when I know the wildlife around it is being respected.

Love this place. I wish I could afford more of the stuff they sell!

The Tomato Festival is awesome!! Especially the Wild Edibles walks. Very interesting (and delicious) finds!

I received the summer CSA-- exceptionally good produce and value.

I've had CSA farm shares from Red Fire Farm for several years, and the quality of their produce can't be beat. I've also visited the farm several times for pick-your-own herbs, their annual August tomato festival, and dinners hosted on the farm and had an absolutely amazing time. Worth the 2 hour drive from Boston!

Local farmers and fresh produce. Friendly people there also!

Very bucolic and a great selection of veg and other products. But the self pay set up is awkward and confusing, and asking for help was met with derision. Would feel uncomfortable going back.

I cannot express my amazement at the difference between RFF's produce and what you buy at other local farms or stores. Top notch, excellent, organic! I have not felt healthier, nor the the food on my table tasted better since I began eating mostly Red Fire Farm's produce. Thank you RFF for your investment into your community!

Great staff pick up some great plants for the planting season, got some honey for my honey, plan to go back for the pick your own starting in June. Also got a free kohlrabi for my purchases. And we all know what kohlrabi is good for. If you do tell me. It's a nice trip if you're in the area stop out in I think it's one of the better farms in the valley.

Wonderful organic farm. Produce is very overpriced, unfortunately. But it's well worth the trip. We love the Tomato festival. An awesome event!!!

Beautiful grounds, spiral sunflower garden, and great festivals and events! Family friendly, affordable and educational. Farm store is lovely, clean and well organized.

Their winter CSA is worth every penny. And you get SO many veggies in the summer

I love my CSA! I've been getting vegetables from Red Fire for years, and I love being part of their community. I really appreciate their newsletter with updates from the farm, including photos, and simple recipes for the vegetables in the share. I view my CSA as an investment in the farm as well as a supply of vegetables. Living in the city, the CSA helps me feel much more connected to the land.

In my recent visit, enjoy too much. The facility is simple. Accessible to the road. Variety in fruit and vegetables. Other plants (flower). The prices is relative with for local businesses and organic. My families enjoyed the pick up the strawberry in the field. I'm recomended

Great farm share program for organic produce, although transparency isn't their thing. Lately, you pick up your share and are surprised at the contents. It is a good crop year, so the surprises are pleasant.

The terms of the share aren't clear, since there are sales through share, retail and grocery stores. In a bad crop year who loses?

--------later---now 3*-------
Now they've diluted the shares by selling additional shares and the August 2020 storm Isaias reduced harvesting. A full share is no longer enough to feed a small family for a week. Question answered, you do get to share in the downside but not the upside.
