There are also pie pumpkins, fresh gourds, mini pumpkins, and Indian corn for sale. The farm stand is stocked with different jams, jellies and dressings too.

If you are looking for a no-frills, simple approach to delicious pie, Pie Bar is your place. Located in Downtown Woodstock, Pie Bar offers slices of pie (to-go! or to-stay!), whole pies, and if you cannot decide — half & half pies!

If you decide to hang out and try a slice, we recommend it “All the Way” (ahem..warm with ice cream) and you can even grab a cup of coffee or some pie filling and crust mix to make yourself at home.

It’s impossible to choose between the delicious fall flavors like Apple Streusel, Pumpkin Praline, Cinnamon Buttermilk, and even Bourbon Chocolate Pecan.
