Lattin Farms
Rick and B. Ann Lattin have been farming in the Lahontan Valley for five generations and creating a unique selection of crops to provide to the Fallon locale and visitors. Cultivating their ripe selection of seasonal harvests like melons, squash, corn, tomatoes, raspberries, garlic, and more, not to mention their jarred items and baked goods, they have become an irresistible stop when you’re in town.
For a unique visit, Lattin Farms provides a variety of activities during their annual harvest season, between September and October. But, whether you’re picking up some fresh produce in the Summertime or taking a ride around the pumpkin patch in the Fall, Lattin Farms is a great way to see some of Fallon’s local agriculture for the whole family.
Frey Ranch Farm and Distillery had roots across Northern Nevada, originally in Genoa but ultimately landing at its current location in the 1860s in our very own City of Fallon. Ever since, it has continued to grow as a favorite of Fallon locals and visitors alike. With 165 years of family farming traditions and 1,500-acres of property, Frey Ranch has had plenty of time and space to perfect their delicious barrel-aged spirits and expertly crafted Whiskey.
There is never a bad time to visit Frey Ranch, but to make a day trip of it visit in the Fall between Late September and Early October to visit the Nevada Maze and Fall Festival.
