How ya’ gonna keep ‘em down on the farm? Take a trip to Johnson’s Corner. This family-owned operation provides acres of fun.
All summer long, you can load up on right-off-the-stem fruits and veggies. The website keeps you up to date on what’s ready for picking. And with everything from strawberries, blueberries, apples and peaches to corn, pumpkins and peanuts there is always something popping up out of the ground.
While you are there, just follow the aroma to the kitchen where you can also stock up on fresh-baked home goods. Fresh breads. Muffins. Fruit cobblers. Pot pies. Yum. Worth every calorie.
After a hayride trip around the farm, kids will want to discover the Discovery Barnyard. Yes, there are live farm animals to meet. But they will also want to spend time on the climbing rocks, go-kart track, three play areas with equipment for different ages and other activities. And while the kids are romping around, parents can hide out in the shaded seating areas sipping on an icy cold drink from the snack bar.
Throughout the year, there are special activities, too. Just look at the calendar to figure out what’s coming up next . . . Mother’s Day specials, Halloween activities, you get the idea.
