We love all the fun, interactive learning about nature, animals and farm life for families. This is an especially nice place for toddlers and youngsters to experience up-close contact with farm animals. Hayrides in the fall and the farmers market there are terrific. Many great seasonal events. More

Great look at what it's like on a farm. Cows, horses, sheep, pigs, chickens, goats, and many other animals housed in the barn and sheds. Garden area introduces kids to how the fruits and vegetables get o their tables. More

I really enjoyed the educational aspects of the park. I saw how to milk a cow, as well as sheering the sheep! More

Every year in September they have a Peddlar Festival. Everything from jewelry to jam. Craft booths from in and out of state. More advanced than your local school or senior crafts. More

the less traveled part of the trail had some new wood lookouts and bird watching areas. Still very rocky base down. The more traveled trails have a wonderful small grit base for runners and walking and lovely woods and views of the stream. More

Just got home from cross-country skiing there, and it has a nice mix of easy and challenging trails. The trails are typically groomed, but depends on how much snow there is and how packed down it gets. The scenery is nice, and it's not too crowded. Hiking there is nice too, as the trails are maintained all year round. More

This is a great place to go for all ages. I got frequently with my 1 year old daughter. She loves seeing all the animals and learns something everytime. The staff is great and always ready to make sure we leave happy. They often take horses out so we can pet them and get a closer look. Can't beat the... More

There is so much to do here, we bought a membership! My older son has attended camp here, and we also visit "Country Lights" every year for the past 3 or 4 years. My only complaint is J&J...the place smells like old french fry grease, the food is bad, and the prices are outrageous. Fortunately, you can pack a lunch... More
