Demarest Farms
We know NJ is the “Garden State” but peaches??! Yup! This isn’t just an Apple Farm! You can come and pick peaches during the season. At the farmer’s market you can pick up baked goods, and even other prepared foods like salads and both hot and cold dishes. Enjoy the petting zoo with your kids and the views at the farm are gorgeous. It’s a famous market so be ready for lines sometimes.
Sometimes you can have s’mores and hot chocolate around a fire pit! Its also great for kids because it’s a manageable farm – not too large – easy to walk around and enjoy a day out.

- I like that the way that the employees direct the cars to the parking lots run pretty smooth! Staffs there are friendly and view is beautiful. There are lots of different varieties of apple trees there and we had a really fun time picking them!! The apples are so sweet and tasty! Would totally go visit again! We didn’t get chance to go to the farmer market due to too many people there and it was a crazy long line, but would like to go visit next time!
- The farm market itself was nice and had a variety of baked goods, prepared foods and snacks, as well as fruits and vegetables. Staff (inside and out) was very nice and gladly answered some questions we had. We were planning on returning to the market to enjoy the advertised s’mores and hot chocolate around the fire pits, but was told the fire pits wouldn’t be lit because of the hay that was piled up that day.
- It is very cute. Not too big so easy for walking with young children. The only negative is the entrance, it can get very busy and some people don’t have patience to wait in line, and they start honking which can be annoying. We enjoyed apple picking and lunch in the farmers market.
