Agritopia Farm - Gilbert, Arizona

J H.

I bought a produce box for 42 dollars (2 heads Romain, 2 tiny bags sugar snap peas <9 peas each>, 2 bunches Swiss chard, 2 bunches green onions, 8 carrots, 2 clam shells mint, 4 smallish sweet potato, 5 daikon radishes.) The carrots were broken and the pieces missing! If you're going to snap my carrots... at least include the other half! Romain was wilting on day 2 (no picture since I tore it up and soaked it in ice water hoping to bring it to life.). Green onions were flowering and fairly bland and slimy. The snap peas were near inedible: bland, yellowing, scarred and limp and harvested when they were overgrown, not tender sweet "baby". The Swiss chard has almost definitely been sitting around for days with its stems tough and browned. The radish greens (I usually cook up) look beat to hell (yellowed and bug eaten)...and may just go to the compost. I haven't tried the sweet potato, but they look well enough. And the mint is well.... but mint grows like a weed in my own yard. Also... this is supposed to be enough for 5 people? Perhaps I eat a lot of greens but this will be enough for 2 people in my house for maybe 5 days. I'm so thankful I bought the one box to try them out before I committed to more. On the plus side I picked up at Wild Harvest Bread Company and found a gem. Super disappointed in Agritopia though. I'll stick with schnepf, azure standard, some organic food from Frys and Produce on Wheels. I wanted to support local but I should have been warned this food wasn't fresh, and has been handled roughly. It's more of a "seconds quality".... like a misfits market at a higher price AND I had to drive 30 minutes to their closest drop while misfits is delivered to my door. Sorry!

(Edited to add photos... you decide.... is this worth 42 bucks and a 30 minute drive?)

Stopped by during our fall break to check out the free farm tour! We had a blast and learned so much, our tour guide was amazing and was so knowledgable! We got the in season dates and we could not believe that they were the best dates we've EVER tasted ( which is saying a lot as I lived in the middle east where dates are a huge deal) we will be very sad when we run out.
Make a day and enjoy this lovely farm.

My boyfriend and I came here for a cute day date. We got a sandwich and tea at the coffee shop, very good food and prices. Then we walked around the gardens and saw the chickens then visited the farm store. We had a lot of fun enjoying the beautiful weather

This was such a delight to have run across. Beautiful garden that supplies food to a restaurant for fresh eating. Pretty spot for photosas well.

Got up early to attend their U Pick It event, only to find out their advertising was incorrect and the event had actually been cancelled. Unfortunate.

Visited to buy peaches on one occasion and peach leaves on another. I discovered that they would rather let their peaches rot on the ground in waste than let a distributor pick up bulk amounts for a discount ($500 for 100lbs of peaches and we picked them).

I was told I could purchase peach leaves for a reasonable price when we bought the peaches.
Today I came back to purchase leaves. Called and emailed multiple times with no answer. Their voicemail said to just come in to talk. I came in to talk at 4pm after traveling an hour and was told I could not have peach leaves and to go to schnepf farms (another hour away). Agritopia is a showcase farm only, they do not offer actual farm services, they only care about making money off their shops while showing a “farm like” ambiance. Below you can see they would rather let their peaches rot than be bought by locals.

Full moon evening. Kind of a romantic environment. Family friendly. Spacious grounds. Coffee shop.
