Sam and Philly’s U-Pick and Farm

Wow just perfection across the board. Even their restroom was clean and organized.
Loved the strawberry shakes and I am not a strawberry or dessert person.

Love love love this place. So much better than knaus berry farm. The monkey bread is out of this world. As is the banana bread. SO good. The shakes are excellent too. Such a lovely atmosphere as well. Perfect for kids of all ages. Really such a great time and experience every time we go. Supper friendly staff as well. We can’t wait till it opens again!

Milk Shake mania. Pick your veggies and chill out with a cold shake your flavor of choice. Personal and friendly service every time. So happy you all opened up. We love you and we will continue to stop with the airboat on the way home. It’s easy to park with a load which is a huge plus!

Milkshakes ! Milkshakes is what it is all about… I ended up at this u pick it farm since the lines at Knaus Berry Farms was about 200 persons deep, another local favorite u pick it farm, in Homestead area. So it was time to try some place new. For $ 5,50, I enjoyed one of the best milkshakes I ever had. Many flavors to choose from, I chose the” Toasted Key Lime Coconut”, milkshake, never tasted anything so exotic and delicious !! My wife had of course the traditional strawberry milkshake, grown right here in the backyard. The décor is like being somewhere in the middle of Iowa. Prices for other market stuff like jams, honey and homemade sauces are a little above market price… Like I said its all about the Milkshakes !! So stop bye Sam and Philly’s, grab a picnic bench and take in the refreshing air of Homestead, Florida.

My experience is only for the upick. Just OK strawberries. Plain flavors, watered down like the super market ones. not the quality I expected from a upick. tomato’s are really expensive, 2.50/lb?! rotten ones lying in the field, messy.
This place could be good for family outing with kids. Not for me, who’s looking for high quality cooking and baking materials.

HOLY WOW. Best milkshake I’ve ever had! I got the pumpkin pie shake but also tried the key lime and key lime & toasted coconut– sooooooo good. Enough said. Dope little stand with great produce and a corn maze :)

Their milk shakes are from Mars. Yes out of this world.
The establishment is clean and friendly staff.
I enjoyed my visit there for pumpkin pash and loved their corn maze, even though I got lost in it.
Will definitely come back. I already miss the pumpkin shake.

I came when nothing but pumpkins was in season but still picked up some homegrown GIANT avocados and fresh dragonfruit. Also bought apple butter and mango jelly. The avocados are, no joke, as big as a papaya. Can’t wait to make some epic guac!
The milkshakes are a MUST HAVE. had the key lime pie coconut and indulged myself. It was creamy, tart, crispy (from the toasted coconut flakes) and sweet. I usually only have a few sips of milkshake because I’m lactose but I couldn’t stop with this shake… My body hated me afterward, But I regret nothing! Lol.

Here you find delicious fruit flavor butters and breads. Customer service is awesome. I’ll definitely bring my family back to participate in their activities and to try one of their famous strawberry milkshakes.

I come here very week for the best tomatoes and strawberries in South Florida. The owners, Tim and Susie, couldn’t be nicer people. The milkshakes are off the chain, and the homemade breads and other baked goods are fabulous.

Loved the whole experience! Friendly and helpful staff. We stopped for a milkshake and got that plus more including roasted corn and fresh made banana nut bread. The shake was all natural with actual pieces of strawberry and the corn is made to order. Will definitely be back!

The wife and I went here for a special strawberry festival day. We’d previously tried to drop by on a Sunday outing but be warned: they are open Saturday’s but not Sunday.
Anyway, the place is very charming, like a gingham country house complete with quaint quaker-​esque décor and displays of preserved and other goodies for sale, including breads. They have an insanely warm and friendly staff. Everything is immaculately clean.
Their milkshakes use wonderful, fresh fruit and are quite satisfying, and they offer an expanded selection of items, like Rootbeer Floats, in addition to the traditional fruit-​stand milkshakes. Their produce selection is also quite nice, and less expensive than the other top-​notch fruit stand in the Redlands area.
On the day we went, it was an eclectic mix of city-​folk down from Miami to experience country charms and locals from the Redlands and Homestead. I believe this is because of the location, which is in the Redlands but in on the Miami side — and while rural, a surprisingly short drive from Kendall, etc.
The roasted corn was also quite good. There were two food trucks on site for the festival, but I will address them in their own reviews :).
As far as the U-​Pick aspect, we can’t properly judge since we arrived later in the day and since it was a festival many families had come out with the kids to get berries, leaving us with a bit of the leftovers as it was picked clean. The prices per pound were quite good, though.
There is also activities like face-​painting and I believe hay-​rides for kids.
Overall, we will be back and its a definite top choice for experiencing a little rural fun and getting some treats. We would consider it worth going out of your way.
Special commendation: restrooms are very clean, which is a bit of a triumph for a u-​pick/​fruit stand rural situation. I don’t usually «review bathrooms» but I was impressed.

Came across this place by accident. Boy was I glad I did!!!
Knaus berry farm ran out of buns and I come from a 45 minute drive. But we came across this place and I gave it a shot. Found out they had buns and I went bananas! We also got the garlic butter, some fruit, grilled corn on the cob, boiled peanuts, and milkshakes.
Everything everything everything was AMAZING.
Best part of it all? NO LINES! We walked right in, and got what we wanted, when we wanted it! It’s super under appreciated. Family owned super cute place. It’s really pretty and has brand new bathrooms out back. Everyone was sooooo nice!
They said they only sell buns Saturday since it takes a lot of work to make, but that they’re working on having it to sell throughout the week. Well IM THERE!
They have events for kids and families from time to time. And they have a hay rides, which my family got to ride.
Overall, amazing experience :)

This was the best Strawberry Shortcake I’ve ever had. This farm is family run and has a cute story as to how it came about. The place looks like a red barn and has rustic country style decorations. They have You-​Pick-​It fields with tomatoes and strawberries. Inside they have other produce for sale like corn, avocados and onions. They sell hot, fresh corn on the cob and boiled peanuts. I went right home and made an omelet with their huge, fresh onions, juicy heirloom tomatoes, threw in some ham and fresh grated parmesan cheese. I found this place to be very clean, well organized, with super friendly staff and so much to do. I’m going to be back as often as I can get down there!

Amazing place. Went to pick strawberries with my boyfriend and friends. Unfortunately they weren’t totally in season but the tomatoes were! Cutest little place. We all ended up taking a ton of really cute pictures. Dying to go back!

Great and wonderful farm for strawberry and tomato pick up. I really love this farm and need to come back again!!!

Found this little hidden gem today for the first time. The place is absolutely beautiful and the treats are delicious. I had a milkshake and a chocolate chip cookie. Also took home some yummy cinnamon buns, herb bread, herb butter (delicious!), and pumpkin butter. They also have a you-​pick farm with fresh veggies and do hay rides and events for children and families. The owners were so sweet and accommodating. Definitely recommend this place!

My Hustban an I decided to take a drive to pick up some Leechy from Miramar on our way to our destination we so Sam & Philly’s so we made the stop and We highly recommend going to this new upick. I am not playing when I say the Best Lychees come from here they are so juicy and sweet, I have never had anything close to the quality. I also got the Best sweet potatoes, Sweet Rost corn the Best! They are amazing and the experience is fun we were invide to bring the kids in agust for some great Family Fun. I will deffenaly be back pretty soon!
Thanks

Anyone in Miami who wants to do something fun with friends or family, I highly recommend going to this new upick. I am not kidding when I say the strawberries from here are so juicy and sweet, I have never had anything close to the quality from a food store. They charge $ 2.69 a lb which is cheaper than the food store. They are amazing and the experience is fun for all ages. They do allow kids to u-​pick. In a few weeks they will have veggies for u-​pick as well. They also offer locally grown veggies from neighbor farms and fresh chicken and turkey eggs. So get in your cars and go for a drive in the Redlands and make a happy memory.
My family and I went right before Christmas and we picked 22 lbs of strawberries and went home and made jam and homemade whipped cream for snacking. I just opened a jar of the jam and the smell was intoxicating. I gave about 3 lbs to a friend who has a restaurant and she made mini strawberry pies and they were so good. All this translates into a must do experience. I asked how long they thought they would have strawberries and they said until April. During the summer months they will still offer locally sourced veggies at their stand.
Please go and experience!
