Finks Farm

If you ever wanted to get the full autumn/​fall experience with the pumpkins, apple cider, animals, hay rides, corn maze, then Fink’s Farm is probably one of the best to check out. This farm is just awesome! The entrance fee is a little steep at $ 15 (children 2 and under are free), but that allows you to the following free activities: farm animals, hay ride, corn maze, throwing hay at each other in a small sectioned area, a tent where you can lay in corn kernels (think ball pit but with corn kernels instead), live music, and access to the grounds. Almost everything else, you will have to pay a la carte while on the grounds including: feed for the livestock, shooting gourd pumpkins at moving objects reminiscent of Angry Birds, a variety of kid’s rides, and all the food. I’ve been to a few farms in Long Island and upstate New York, and have not seen all the amenities available at one grounds. Usually, we’d have to go to one farm for kids rides, another farm for a corn maze. So again, you’re paying for the whole ambiance and convenience of everything at one single location. For kid’s, it’s great because I can’t imagine packing kids in and out of the car to go to multiple destinations.
My favorite part was The Barnyard, where the the farm animals are located ranging from ox, roosters, chickens, goats, cows, pigs, donkeys, ducks, and there’s even a small barn for where all the small /​newborn animals are. Some of the staff may let you hold or pet a couple of them. The animal grounds is decent-​sized with a few stations throughout to sanitize your hands. My one concern was the cellular tower right next to where the cows are. I can’t imagine all that radiation could be good for the animals and visitors.
The corn maze is small and has a staff member in the middle sitting on a tall lifeguard-​type chair, just in case people actually get lost in the maze or need help. The hay ride is a quick 5-​minute ride that goes along the perimeter of the corn maze, pumpkin field, and vegetable fields. You may be able to see a few vegetables still in the ground ready to be harvested. The ride is pretty boring for the adults but the kids may enjoy it.
As for the rest of the grounds, there’s picnic tables where’s there’s about 3 – 5 closed sections for birthday parties and private parties. The bathroom facilities is a mobile trailer truck, but I was surprised at how clean the bathroom was, with running water. It felt like a normal bathroom to say the least, not your typical porta-​potties that some farms make available to their customers.
Overall, it’s a nice experience for the kids and younger adults who truly enjoy the fall-​themed festivals. Biggest bang for the buck at $ 15 per person? probably not. And if you’re money-​conscious and/​or contemplating the $ 15 entrance fee, I’d probably advise not going, as you’ll probably regret spending that money. But overall, we had a great time and the little one did enjoy staring at all the sights and sounds.

Brought my family to fall festival for the first time. This is the best farm I’ve been to in years! My two girls 5 and 12 enjoyed themselves so much we stayed all day. Never once did they say they were bored! The animals were amazing and well kept very clean. And amazingly not smelly! Food was great! The corn playhouse was my kids favorite !!! Best corn maze! Employees very friendly and helpful! This is a must go for your family! Can’t wait to see what they do for Christmas !!!

Over priced rip off. They charge you $ 15 just to get in. Then you have to pay for just about everything else. Long lines for over priced and cold food. The corn maze is a joke. We went through it in less than 5 minutes. Would not recommend this venue.

FINKS STINKS!!!
Extremely disappointed! As a family of 5 most things are quite expensive. But $ 75 just to walk in is completely outrageous and unexceptable. Being told there was lots to do inside and that my children would have to be accompanied by an adult was a joke. Not one activity consisted of me actually part taking besides walking threw a small corn maze and a animal farm! When I asked if just one adult could pay bc my boyfriend was only staying for a half an hr the employees became rude and then told me «what do you think you pay at the movies?» Excuse me but even with 5 of us and snacks it’s not $ 75! Not to mention more than half of the activities there cost additional money. This was a huge waste of time and money. If it had just been the $ 15 per child I would have been more than happy to have paid the $ 45 that seemed worth it. But the additional $ 30 for my boyfriend and I to walk in the freezing cold and do nothing is ridiculous! Do not waste your time coming here. You’ll leave broke and won’t even have a pumpkin to show for it!

Went here with my family of 5 was very disappointed in the price and the employees were horrible. Do not come here unless you want to wait online for an hour for unlimited bouncy houses and hayrides. I felt like they targeted my son because he was like any other 2 year old, I spoke with a manager about one of the employees and she offered to talk with her and give me a free pony ride, I turned down her offer because I wasn’t looking for compensation I was looking to enjoy a nice Sunday with my family and not a conformation with a «bouncy house» employee. I own two businesses and would NEVER conduct business this way nor hire mean employees who clearly hate their job.

Overpriced and overcrowded. Used to be a great day, but now it’s a very expensive proposition to spend the day waiting an hour for corn or watching 100 people pour into the entrance every minute with little chance of enjoying the grounds or activities since people are on top of each other and it’s an hour wait to get on a hay ride or bouncy house. Won’t be back next year. It’s worth an extra 20 minutes drive to actually have a good time and not spend a fortune.

Overpriced. 15 dollars for kids and adults alike. A few things for the kids to do: bouncy houses, corn barns, a slide, corn maze, a petting zoo. Adult admission doesn’t really get you anything… the petting zoo and corn maze? There should be a «I just want to watch my kid» rate. Many things held additional fees. I got the «we don’t need your money» treatment when I questioned what I was getting for $ 75 worth of entry tickets. Save your money and shoot down to Gabrielsen’s where the admission is far cheaper, or better yet, go to Windy Acres where the admission is free and you’ll have a similar experience (but notably without as many frills).

I went to finks farm with my gf strictly just because there was a sign offering hot roasted corn when i arrived they said we couldnt buy the corn unless we bought A fall festival bracelet. I said i only wanted to buy two roasted corns and leave and they told me they needed collateral to know i will come right back, but they wanted human collateral! They told my gf to stay with them until I came back! Horrible business !! I will certainly not come here again. Very disrespectful.

We set out to go to apple picking at a different farm nearby, but was lured to Finks Farms by the many signs on the highway. This farm is an excellent experience for children and adults too! There was a live band (that was amazing), corn maze, pony rides, hay rides, pumpkin picking, animal farm (children can pet the animals and feed them), bouncy house and more. We will definitely return again.
Things to know:
–The food line was really long, and the food wasn’t that great. The prices were pretty reasonable.
–You have to pay a $ 13 admittance fee, in addition to the cost for your pumpkin (weighed per pound).

Awesome fall festival!!! My kids loved it. Would definitely recommend to anyone with kids. We spent the whole day there. So much to do and something for everyone… A++

What an amazing experience I had at finks farm! So much to do and inexpensive!!! I brought my 9 year old nephew and my 5 year old niece and my 30 year old best friend and we all had the best time!!! Pony rides, hay rides, corn mazes, feeding the animals, playground, Elmo!!! Most of this stuff was included with the $ 13 entrance fee. The stuff that was not included was fairly priced (feed for animals $ 2, pony ride $ 5) omg! Did I mention they have pig races!!! If you want a wonderful fall experience and an all day event for the family at a price you can afford this is the place!!! I have been to other farms on the island and nothing had compared to the price and experience I had here!!!
