“If you're looking for some generic Florida tourist trap, keep scrolling because this the complete opposite! Southern Fresh Farms is one of those places that reminds you what Florida is really about! It's an awesome spot to spend an afternoon, whether you're with family, friends, or just looking to grab a cold beer, listen to live music, and relax. They've got a farmers market full of fresh produce grown right there on site with hydroponic towers, local honey, grass fed bison, fresh local eggs, and other goods from small local businesses. Grab a beer in the covered beer garden and you'll feel like you found a genuine slice of old Florida! Kids can feed the rescued farm animals, play corn hole and other games, and run the playground while the adults relax under the pavilion with live music and a cold one brewed right there on-site by Southern Fresh Brew Co. Try the Small Craft Advisory IPA if you're into hoppy beers, and if not, they've got 8 on tap plus seltzers and non-alcoholic options, so there's really a beer for everyone! What really gets me is the history. This land's been farmed by the same family since 1947, three generations deep. When it almost got sold off, the founder's son bought it back himself just to keep it from turning into another development. In a region getting paved over fast, that's rare, and it's exactly why this place still feels real instead of manufactured! If you're a local and haven't been yet, you're missing out! And if you're visiting Florida, this deserves a spot on your itinerary! It's the kind of hidden gem that gives you the full Florida experience in one stop! REAL Florida is still out there and this is where you'll find it!”

“Our family is so happy we discovered this place! We had an amazing time from start to finish. The fresh fruits, vegetables, and local goodies were fantastic. My daughter absolutely loved feeding the animals and playing on the playground, and my husband enjoyed kicking back and relaxing with a cold beer in hand 😂. It truly felt like the perfect family outing. We’ll definitely be making this a monthly tradition!”

“Made a quick stop to check out the farm. It was late afternoon on a Saturday. Unfortunately no live music but did go to the brewery and tried some of the beer. Walked around to the farm to see the biggest steer I've ever seen. Big boy. Beautiful animals. Nice area. They also had a food truck and a snow cone truck. Little something for everyone.”

“Had grandson’s 3rd birthday party here Saturday. Staff were extremely attentive and accommodating. We even had a moon bounce. Very nice people highly suggest. Note: do not bring anything that has confetti. It will make the animals sick.”
