This is not a drill. Guys, Knausberry Farms have opened their doors for the season. I repeat. This is not a drill. Knausberry Farm is now open.
Knausberry Farm is home to the best cinnamon rolls in the entire state of Florida. You can try to fight me on that, but with God as my witness, we all know I’m right. Their cinnamon rolls are so good that when they open up for the season, their average wait time in line is anywhere from 55 minutes to 2 hours. That’s about as long as the wait time for the Rip, Ride, Rock It! On opening weekend, however, expect the lines to be anywhere from 4-7 hours long.

Aside from being home to the best cinnamon rolls in the state, Knausberry farm is also home to the tastiest milkshakes and ice cream. The lines for these aren’t as big and are luckily in a separate area. Therefore, you can buy yourself a cold delicious milkshake to drink while you stand in line under the blazing Florida sun.
Knausberry Farm is located between the Redlands in Homestead. The best way to get there for anyone familiar with the area is to just drive straight down Krome Avenue for a solid 250 blocks and then make a left. It’s pretty far from civilization, but I assure you that it is worth it.
Knausberry Farm is run by a religious group known as the Tunkers, formally known as the German Baptists. It happens quite often that this group is confused with the Amish due to the fact that they dress in classic pilgrim attire. The difference is that German Baptists accept the use of technology unlike the Amish. The Knausberry Farm we know today was started by two brothers Ray and Russell Knauss. It all began as a strawberry farm. It then expanded as Ray’s wife, Barbara, began to bake cookies and sell them. Over the years, they added vegetables, assorted baked goods and ice cream to their menu. Now, the strawberry farm has been converted into a U-Pick strawberry and tomato farm - infamous for their delicious cinnamon rolls. To this day, Knausberry Farm still belongs in the hands of the Knauss family seeing as Ray’s daughters and their husbands oversee the farm.
