Every once in a while, social media serves you something so ridiculous that there's only one reasonable response. "Yep. I'm doing that." So when Destiny Dairy Bar showed up on my feed talking about "come snuggle piglets for $25!" there was no internal debate. No hesitation. No weighing the pros and cons. I immediately booked a Piglet Snuggle Session. Honestly...I don't think I've ever typed my credit card number faster. Booking online was incredibly easy, and from the moment I reserved my spot, Destiny Dairy Bar knocked the customer service out of the park. They sent multiple emails leading up to my appointment explaining exactly what to expect, reminding me about my reservation and providing the required waiver ahead of time so there weren't any surprises when I arrived. Five stars before I even touched a pig! I arrived about 15 minutes early and checked in at the farm store. The staff couldn't have been friendlier. They encouraged me to wander around the property until my session started, which turned out to be a great suggestion. There were goats. Cows. Adult pigs. A donkey named Pamela. And plenty of opportunities to wander around smiling at animals living their best lives. When it was time for my session, everything started right on schedule. My farm guide explained how to safely hold the piglets and then basically said..."Have fun!" Don't mind if I do! The best part? I wasn't rushed at all! I had the opportunity to hold any of the piglets I wanted but settled in with the tiniest little guy of the bunch. Three and a half pounds. Curled up in my arms. Completely asleep. For most of the twenty-minute session. I don't know if he chose me...or if I chose him...but we were best friends by the end. The staff member even offered to take photos for me, which I appreciated so much since I was visiting on my own. Instead of trying to awkwardly balance a piglet while taking selfies, I was able to simply enjoy the experience and leave with wonderful memories! PRO TIP: Arrive a little early so you have time to explore the rest of the property. The piglets may be the headline attraction, but they're definitely not the only adorable residents you'll meet. At $25 per group (up to four people), I honestly think this is one of the best values for a unique experience you'll find anywhere. Whether you're bringing kids, your partner or just embracing your inner animal lover like I did, it's twenty minutes of pure joy! Now...I do have one confession. After I got home...I may or may not have Googled plans for building a piglet house. I'm not saying I'm getting a pet pig. I'm just saying...the research has begun. Until then, I'll happily keep coming back to Destiny Dairy Bar whenever I need a piglet fix! read more

The ice cream is very good, and the experience is fun! You can buy a tray of food to feed the pigs, chickens, goats and cows. Your shoes may get dirty! But it's worth it. read more

Talk about a hidden gem in Cumberland county! Destiny Dairy Bar is an awesome local farm where you can get some cow to cone ice cream, flavored milks, and all kinds of beef products at a reasonable price. They pack a LOT into the small building, and the staff was friendly, helpful, and offered lots of helpful suggestions as we were trying to decide. I highly recommend the Milky Way milk - you may doubt it, but it tastes EXACTLY like a Milky Way! In addition to tasty desserts, they have some lovely outdoor seating with checkers, tic tack toe, and a petting zoo with some friendly animals. You can also go into one of their barns and see baby cows and pigs! Highly recommend for families looking for an easy evening at a beautiful and tasty venue! read more

Cool spot to take kids. My toddler loved the animals that were out walking around. We walked through the entire place before realizing you could pay $1.00 to purchase treats to feed the animals. Will definitely do this next time. Did not personally try their ice cream, but my 2.5 year old loved it, and even wore some of it home. read more
