Tapia Bros

Fun place to visit during Halloween season, especially for the kids. There’s a petting zoo, pony rides, and you get to choose from a variety of different sized pumpkins. We used to visit Pierce College before they ended their Halloween event, but since it’s now discontinued, this is now our first choice.

Wonderful people to do business with. Love working with you. Thanks for taking care of us.

I’ve been to Tapia Bros for other things but last night was my first purchase of a tree, there! I honestly had the best experience ever with a tree! The staff were so amazing and helpful and curious! My wife and baby had a great time as well!
We chose a noble with the assistance of their staff and ordered it flocked for pick up today! The pricing is great and they have a large selection of trees!
I believe we’re lifetime customers now!

Great place for holiday fun!!! We get our Christmas tree there every year! Best prices and really helpful staff. Centrally located for the valley!!!

Good place to pick some pumpkins, eat some dogs wrapped in bacon and corn on the cob. There a zillion pumpkins to choose from, and though they may be a bit more than a grocery store, these are a lot better looking. They look healthy and hearty. We didn’t check out the Corn Maze, but that sounds pretty awesome.
They sell produce, too, and sweets, etc. It’s kinda easy to keep your wallet open here, if you’re not careful! But, if you’re looking for a good pumpkin patch and you’re anywhere near the Valley, you really have to check out Tapia Bros. Right off the 101, it’s very convenient, and they totally got the goods.

We went for the Halloween corn maze event.
The staff was friendly, the food (pop corn) was good. The corn maze was way fun and cheap ($ 8 per person), and they have their own parking setup too.
No idea about the farm goods. It’s a family run farm and they were very hospitable and kind. I’ll revisit soon and see what it’s like.

RUDE, RUDE, RUDE. Came here to go to their pumpkin patch with my wife. As we pulled in there was someone directing cars. He directed the car in front of me to the right. And then motioned for me to pull straight in, gesturing towards handicapped parking. I figured he was directing me there because the parking was full, since I don’t have handicapped plates. As I was getting out of my vehicle, another guy came up to me and asked if I had a placard. I said no, and told him the other guy had directed me here. He rudely told me, «NO HE DIDN’T», and told me to park around the side. I said that the other attendant never directed me to the right, and got in my car and moved. As we were walking in, we heard him telling the girls inside about it. He continued to discuss it with his co-​workers the entire time we were there, and was even rude to me as I exited.
I was really hoping to have a fun time here with my wife, but the actions and behavior of one employee ruined the event for me. I will not give them my business again.

Nice pumpkin patch and variety of kids activities w no admission, gotta give a shout out to the red headed guy at cashier, as he is very friendly :) kind of a long wait to purchase …

This place is a kool spot for families, lots of photo opportunities and pumpkins. We went on a Tuesday afternoon and to our surprise their was a lot of people.

I love mazes, so I was excited to find one in Encino!
Cons:
— location — you can really hear the 101
— disorganization of their set-​up — the maze is on one side of the street, but we had to park, pay and get our map on the other side of the street.
— their cashier system is a nightmare — why not have a line for people wanting to buy tickets for the maze or tractor/​train ride. We had to wait as a woman picked out small pumpkins… one at a time.
— the corn maze has a map and was super easy — good for kids, but not that exciting for adults
— you are supposed to fill out questions as you go through the maze, but we only saw one sign the whole time
Pros:
— good for kids
— $ 8 for adults (under 10 was cheaper)
— location — right off the highway

This place was definitely unexpected, after spending the last 10 years at Pierce we were not sure what to expect. It definitely was a big hit with my kiddos and the train ride was awesome. Prices are fair and there’s plenty to do. Definitely a new family tradition.

Not sure how this place has so many great reviews, it really is a let down. Yes there is free parking and entry to the venue is free, but the rest of the experience is not worth the hassle. There are giant lines for every attraction and the longest line is the cashier line in case you find something to purchase.
The pumpkins themselves were a huge let down as well, they were extremely overpriced and most of them were in bad condition. Several were rotten and looked as if they had been sitting for days without anyone attending to them. To be completely honest, we didn’t see anyone actually working or helping out besides the people taking money.
I mean ⁴⁰⁄₅₀ dollars for a decent sized pumpkin… that’s absurd! We went to Whole Foods and bought one the exact same size for $ 9. When Whole Foods is a deal compared to this place, there’s an issue.
We left immediately and noticed that there were several others who had arrived, saw the disappointment and left empty handed as well. It might be an ok place for your kids if you show up very early in the morning, however, the prices are extremely high!

Great pumpkin patch to come to. No admission fee and many different pumpkins to choose from. All of which were reasonable. Train ride $ 3 Corn Maze $ 8.

Tapia Brothers Farm was WONDERFUL!!! The maze was fantastic, a real adventure. Definitely created a memory to last a lifetime. Can’t wait to do it again next year. Me 33 weeks pregnant, my husband and our two boys ages 3 and 4, completed the maze and answered all of the questions in the maze in about 1.5 hours. Thanks for such a wonderful experience

I have gone to Lombardi Ranch every year since I was a kid, and was so saddened this year when they were closed due to the drought. I found Tapia Brothers on Unilocal and decided to take my two year old to this pumpkin patch, and it was equivalent, if not more fun than Lombardi! They only charge $ 2 for the kids to play in the kid section, which could have entertained my daughter for hours. We had a blast me will be coming back in years go come. Oh and also, try the roasted corn. It’s scrumptious.

Absolutely loved this place. Parking is a breeze and free! The setups throughout are lovely and make for wonderful pictures and memories. Very clean and familial atmosphere. Went to check out the corn maze across the street and had extra fun running around searching for the checkpoints and making friends along the way.
The only disappointment was that the lady at the front didn’t explain anything to us. We paid our entrance and she handed us a map. We had to figure it out on our own. She didn’t even give us a pen! Which it turns out we needed. Throughout the exit we realized she had explained it well and provided pens for others. Maybe she just didn’t like us:/! Ha! But we had an amazing time dancing and running and playing like we were in survivor counting out how much food and water we had left to survive! Lol
I would 100% recommend the patch, maze and tractor ride. Then get yourself some fresh strawberries and dates and sit at one of the picnic tables to enjoy. Happy Fall Days!

Very good place to take small children for pumpkin picking. Pony rides, petting zoo, jumper, maze. What I liked was there was no fee to enter… pay as you go along. Food choices, as well. Fresh veggie stand was nice as well. I will go back again this month, hopefully when the weather gets cooler.

This place has been here for years growing corn, strawberries, lettuce, basil, eggplant, pumpkins, flowers, etc…
A secret farmers market right off th 101 Ventura freeway, exit Hayvenhurst, across from Balboa Park.
Last week my husband and I were canning our tomatoes and were a bit short so I went to Tapia Bros. To get some extras, when I mentioned it was for canning they had extra ripe tomatoes at a discount price.
Easy parking, very clean and organized, picked up a huge fresh eggplant for $ 2
Be sure to visit the chickens, goats and take a walk around the grounds. Great for kids too!

It’s that time of year, even if we are still seeing record temps in Fall, to get your Harvest\Pumpkin\Halloween in gear. Tapia Bros does some nice work in dressing up their little Farmers Market for a self contained mini harvest festival.
Free parking and free to get in, they have a small kids section to ride the pony’s, pet some goats, or hit the jumper.(at a small cost of course). The lot is unpaved so don’t come the day you get your car washed :)
They are roasting corn too, a must at any good fall festival and they have their normal freshly grown produce right there as well. Farm fresh and reasonably priced. Of course there are rows and rows of pumpkins in every size and shape imaginable and all laid out in a neat and orderly fashion.
There is even a hay ride and corn maze across the street that is part of their shindig.
This is so much better than picking out a pumpkin at your local market especially if you have kids.
They are literally next to the 101 fwy so that’s pretty convenient too. Anyhow, lot’s to do and see packed in this little corner so definitely worth a go if you are looking for a cool place to get a pumpkin and peruse their other offerings. A good time!

Great place! Fruit is fresh and delicious! Staff is wonderful! Good prices! Plenty of
Parking. The corn is amazing. It’s on a dirt road. Right off the freeway. You should try it:)
