5/5 Stars: A must-visit for families! We had the absolute best time at Tanaka Farms today! If you have kids, this place is a total win. My little ones were so entertained by the "bumblebee" train ride, and we spent a good chunk of time just exploring all the cute photo ops around the property. What really stood out was how educational they made it—they actually named all the different produce growing in the fields, which kept the kids engaged the whole time. We finished the day shopping at the produce stands, and I have to say, the strawberries are out of this world. Seriously, they’re the best I’ve ever had. Highly recommend for a fun, fresh Sunday out!
A fun gem in Irvine. Fruit picking tours, strawberries in our case, a tractor tour plus they have a great little shop and animal area. As a bonus the strawberry picking ticket included a bonus "crop" and we got take home a brussel sprouts we got to pick. Theres a cafe but we were too early for it to be open. They also do other fruit picking tours or you can just come by to pick up farm fresh items. They mentioned melons in the Summer and pumpkins in the Fall. Highly recommended to book ahead of time and to arrive early - the tours were sold out for the day when we got there at 10:30am.
The tractor tour was fun. I took a lot of pictures of the fields. They grow a lot of local produce and it's a very child friendly place to spend time with your young ones. I went strawberry picking, but there's other U-picks and tours throughout the year for their seasonal crops. I took home a lot of celery and a box of strawberries. There's breakfast served on the weekends and you can buy produce there as well to support local farms.
My family and I went to Tanaka Farms on the morning of February 14 for breakfast, and we had a great time. We were a little unprepared for how cold it was, but it honestly did not take away from the experience at all. The farm is beautiful and very peaceful. Everything is well organized and welcoming. The tractor ride was a lot of fun and something our whole family enjoyed. It was nice to ride through the farm, take in the scenery, and just enjoy being there together. We had breakfast at the grill. The pancakes are great highly recommend. Overall, it was a fantastic experience. We really enjoyed ourselves and are glad we went. Tanaka Farms is a wonderful place to visit, especially with family, and we would definitely come back again.
I thoroughly enjoyed my visit to Tanaka Farms. This historic venue is a must-see in Irvine! The strawberries were super sweet, and the sight-seeing wagon tour was so fun. I enjoyed the barnyard and all of the animals there. I can’t wait to go back for the future events!
