The vendors were incredibly friendly and it was so great to have activities for my kids to enjoy!

Kathleen Burton

Was great experience. Just didn't know what to do! Haha. We had no idea where to start, what was included in the price and we never saw the photo booth or live animals. It was still super fun! We drove 3 hours and didn't know anyone or the area so we were just out of sorts. We know what to expect next time!! Thanks for making clean fun happen!

Tonya Jaynes

Amazing, as always. This time the vendors were spread out very well. In comparison to the one in April where too many vendors were placed under the covering and caused a lot of congestion

Lauren Brady

We enjoyed it. However, we were disappointed. We came at 5:50 and you were out of "cheerwine" items that we came for. And the big food vendor was out of food an hour into the event. I feel that's not okay being that you know how many tickets were purchased.

Kristina Joyce

We had a blast looking forward to the next adventure

Jordan Stallings

Great time! Very well organized

Jimmy Vaughan

Great idea

Saadia Smith

My kids and I had a great time. However the bean bags for corn hole didn't get put out until it was dark so my kids were a little disappointed by that. Otherwise the food and activities were more than enough.

Cara McIntyre

Liked that there were not long lines

Russell Hill

It was like eating around the world with all the different cuisines. I loved it. It wasn't over crowded at all, very well managed.

Dorothy Westall

It was great!

Misty Dixon

This was a great way to get to know local food and drink vendors and have a nice safe evening full of food and fun

Kelly Fox

We had a blast! I hope that there are more wine samplers in the future

Brandi Lambert

Great session can't wait for the next one 🙂

Nicole Comas

Loved the Hootenanny tonight. Megan at NC Eat and Play is awesome and has never steered us wrong with her recommendations. I always recommend her to friends and family if they are looking for places to explore and eat here in NC. Great job Megan and Harrison! Loved meeting you both tonight!

Isaida Veale

It was a great time. Do wish there was some more food options but it was still very good and a great time

Ashley Jimenez

This event was wonderful! The weather and atmosphere were perfect. The variety of samples from vendors were great and quite delicious. Was just a very fun evening for the whole family!

Angela

This was our first time at the farm. The event was wonderful. I loved that it was full but not overly crowded. The vendors were a great mix. I'd love to go to another event! Also, would love to go to something where they also sell their items. Kuddos for putting on an awesome event!! 🔥

Danielle Haberkorn

Amazing food vendors and loved the overall environment! I would love to see more spirits vendors. Well done, thanks for a memorable evening.

Victoria Weltmer

Tonight was SUCH a fun event! Everything was perfect- from the incredibly variety of vendors to the minimal lines. It was just the best! I've learned so much about the area from NC Eat and Play (since we moved here last year) and I just value her work so much.

Renee Gillham

It's a great event! Recommend more trash cans and avoid the Raffle type tickets. Just 1 per drink is easier than the tear off kind that had 2 attached. And more water bottles. We loved it though. Thanks for all the kid events and variety of food vendors.

Julia Sears

Megan and her team are amazing and truly bringing a love for NC to the community!

AJ Forest

Smooth, relaxing and yummy😋

Bonnie Nichols

We had a great time! We got to try a ton of different foods and learn about local spots I'd love to try in the future
