Where Our Agents Head for Fall Farm Adventures

Fall is upon us, which means one thing: our agents are dusting off their cozy sweaters and getting ready to swap high-rise condos for corn mazes. While we’re usually navigating the real estate market, when autumn rolls around, we’ve got our eyes on a different kind of property—farms. And not just any farms. We’re talking about those fall wonderlands with apple picking, pumpkin patches, and the kind of baked goods that make you forget all about your meal prep plans. So, whether you're in the mood for wagon rides, fresh cider, or just need an excuse to wear flannel, we've rounded up the five farms our agents love to visit every fall. Trust us—after spending so much time in the city, these farm escapes are like a breath of fresh, cinnamon-scented air.

Pingle’s Farm Market

Pingle’s Farm Market in Hampton is where fall fantasies come to life. Apple picking? Check. Pumpkin patch? Of course. Corn maze? You bet, and it’s big enough to get lost in (but don’t worry, there’s cider waiting at the end). Our agents love it for its family-friendly vibes and the baked goods. You might want to clear your weekend schedule if you haven’t tried their apple cider donuts. Plus, Pingle’s hosts an annual fall festival with live entertainment, making it a perfect spot for a day out. Don’t blame us if you come home with more pumpkins than you can carry!

Downey’s Farm Market

Downey’s Farm in Caledon is like fall’s greatest hits album. Our agents swear by it for a classic autumn day out. Want to pick the perfect pumpkin for your doorstep? Done. Need some corn maze bragging rights? Easy. And if you’ve got little ones, the petting zoo is always a hit. Downey’s also boasts an impressive market filled with farm-fresh produce, baked goods, and even a winery. Yes, you read that right—fruit wines that’ll make you feel fancy. If you need a break from all that real estate talk, this farm is the go-to for some laid-back, cozy fun.

Chudleigh’s Entertainment Farm

Chudleigh’s in Halton Hills is more than just a farm—it’s an entertainment destination. Our agents love this spot for its beautiful apple orchards (perfect for a family outing or a spontaneous Instagram photo op). But the real draw? Their bakery. If you leave without one of their famous apple pies, were you even really there? They’ve also got hayrides, a petting zoo, and a play area to keep the kids (and the young at heart) entertained. Come for the apples, stay for the pies, and try not to be too competitive in the corn maze.

Andrews Farm Market & Winery

Located in Milton, Andrews Farm is the perfect mix of farm charm and grown-up fun. You can start the day by picking apples and pumpkins and end it with a wine tasting because this farm also has its winery. Our agents appreciate the low-key, relaxed vibe, perfect for unwinding after a busy workweek. Plus, they offer seasonal events like corn mazes and hayrides, so it’s great for the whole family. The farm-fresh produce and baked goods at their market also ensure you won’t leave empty-handed. It’s the ultimate fall escape with a splash of wine.

Riverdale Farm

For our agents who don’t want to leave the city but still crave a taste of the farm life, Riverdale Farm in Toronto is a hidden gem. Nestled in the heart of Cabbagetown, this farm offers an authentic 19th-century farm experience. It’s more educational than commercial, making it a fun and peaceful escape for a fall afternoon stroll. There are no corn mazes here, but the farm animals, lush gardens, and scenic views make up for it. Plus, it’s free! It’s the perfect spot for a low-key day out while staying close to home.

Whether you’re chasing after that perfect pumpkin, indulging in apple pies, or just in it for the fresh air, these farms have something for everyone. Happy fall, and don’t forget your flannel!
