We stopped in for peaches over the summer but left with nothing. There were lots of options, but…read moremany of the things we could find at a grocery store with better prices and potentially better quality. The peaches were hard which was a disapointment. We were hoping to find peaches that were more ripe because they were local. We found about two peaches that were a little softer but they had no smell. I was suprised that there were so few local items. If I wanted goods made in PA, I'd go to PA. I asked which produce items were local and it sounded like almost none of them. You can get baked goods, produce, bottled and jarred items like pickes, candy, meats, and "homemade" deli items. There were plants for purchase, some outdoor furniture, and a cafe. The best part of the place ended up being the animals. We fed some goats and took a phot with the large bull statue. I think this would be a great place to bring kids to see the animals. I don't think it's worth the drive if you're staying on the coast because it's mostly grocery store quality produce and items you can get for less elsewhere. But, if you need something to do with kids and you're close by, it's worth a stop.

I can't stop coming back to Parsons Farms! Every time I visit, the bakery section lures me in;…read moreeverything looks so good that it's hard not to walk out with a bag full of treats. On this visit, I tried the Blueberry Banana Smoothie and the Turkey Sandwich at their cafe. The smoothie was incredible, vibrant purple, perfectly thick. The turkey sandwich was equally impressive; the bread was toasted to a perfect golden brown, and the balance of the melted cheese and sauce made for a great brunch. Beyond the cafe, it's the perfect spot to grab some fresh fruits and baked goods for home. Definitely a local gem!

$20 per person to feed capybaras and kangaroos? Yes, please! We were passing through on our way to…read morethe beach and found this place online. We were going to book some of the private experiences but they were sold out so we just did the regular farm tour. So glad we did, because as it turned out everyone else who booked at that time except one other couple were late, so we pretty much got the place to ourselves! Our favorite part was feeding the kangaroos, capybaras, and the tortoise. And we got to pet/hold hands with the baby river otters through the fence! They also have horses that we loved scratching, and also porcupines, sloth, prairie dog, donkeys, camels, alpacas, zebras, emus, and an ostrich. The highland cow was off somewhere else apparently about to give birth. Purchase your tix online in advance before you go. Once to the driveway, you have to open the gate, drive through, then close the gate so the animals don't escape! Park just down the driveway near the port-a potty. The owners were really nice and helped teach us about the animals. It was a very hot day and not much shade, but the perfect detour on a long car ride.

This place was a lot of fun!…read more When you get to the entrance there is a closed gate stating you must have a reservation and a QR code to tickets. You then have to open the metal gate, pull through, and close it behind you. There are loose animals in the parking area so it is pretty important to close it behind you! There wasn't any signage for parking, but when you drive down to the dumpster and port-a-potty, that is where you should park. We got to see the horses, rams, camels and donkeys that were loose in the parking area before going to the sloth enclosure. We also went into the kangaroo enclosure, which also had two capybaras and some porcupines in separate enclosures that you could pet. After that there's a hay rack, that is hooked up to a truck, that will drive you out to the big pasture. We got to feed the big buffalo, camels, zebra, and cows. We loved how hands on this place was, it could use some updating and better signage for parking, but we will definitely go back to this place!

We originally saw Jack and Pickles as we were walking on the dock around Smith Island - and it was closed. The next day we saw it was open and we peeked our head in and saw the cutest little place w an awesome view. They are open during the day and then they are open again from 6-9 and are byob. We came that night w a drink and sat on the deck and enjoyed sitting on the water. We left for dinner and came back after we ate. We sat on the deck until close enjoying a gorgeous sunset. The owners, Elley and Terry are just awesome people. They love the island life and want the best for the community. We really enjoyed talking to them. We didn't have kids with us, but it would be perfect to bring the kids along bc they have a ton of games and activities to keep busy.

Why the hell would I want credit to another phoned in event that doesn't actually care about their customers and providing a positive experience while really only taking advantage of the customer by not providing and hosting the events that are only to an extent that makes it worth more than $12, while falsely advertising about the service, food and ticket time frame. The owner Cait is a fraud and scammer artist and if I had the time I would sue for a full refund for not hosting the advertised event, purely to make her live up to the standards she falsely represents. We weren't even allowed a 2nd tea bag, and told to use the same small tea bag for the rest of the tea. WHO does that?!?! Email sent to owner about the tea party that was falsely advertised as more than it was. The menu included sandwiches (all were mush mixed with cream cheese, goat cheese or mayo. Our assortment of desserts were 2 stale pound cake cubes and 2 macaroons. We paid $66 each for the worst tea service I've ever went to. I will no longer be a patron of such shitty service and shitty menu and complete lack of accountability and refusal to give a full refund. "I attended your Victorian Tea Party yesterday and I was so excited because my husband bought me and my sisters tickets as a birthday present to me. I looked at your facebook post and the pictures of the menu and the food looked so delicious. That is far from what your tea party was. Firstly the tea sandwiches were not great. The canned beet juice made the bread fall apart, the cucumber sandwich had grated cucumber instead of slices no crunch and flavor. The goat cheese and micro green sandwich was hands down the worst though. It would have been great if the micro greens were fresh that morning instead of tasting dry and mashed into a thin layer of goat cheese. I really wish I had taken photos. Then there is the whole dessert course of the tea where it is supposed to be 2 macaroons, tea cakes and cookies. Well I did get a photo of what my tea cake and macaroons looked like but there were no cookies. As for the tea. We were given a pot of hot water for the table and by the time we got our tea bags the water wasn't hot anymore and when we were asked if we wanted more tea and when everyone said yes they only brought more water and we had to use the tea bag twice. I'm a huge tea party fan and I looked at the Cafe's normal menu before I bought our tickets to see what we would most likely be having and I could have gotten 2 sandwiches, salad, scones, cookies and cake pops for about what I paid for this lunch. I'm also attaching photos of other tea rooms and their menus and cost as a comparison to what i honestly expected your event to be similar to do to the cost and the quality of food served for lunch daily. Then there's the 2 girls that have no idea what they are doing and trying to handle 16 woman in a shed sized space and they ran so far behind we only really had like an hour to eat because despite the reservations saying we had 12pm to 2pm, meanwhile our service didn't start until 12:30pm and we were promptly to at 1:30pm that we needed to leave so the next group could come in because they insisted our tea party was from 12-1:30 and not 2. We were told to leave before our reservation time was over. WTF I have never asked for my money back from anyone ever. I just shrug it off and let it go. But I just can't get past how absolutely awful the whole experience was. I would really like a full refund for both tickets. We were both supposed to go to your Galentine Tea last year when my mom had a heart attack and we couple it. I paid $130 for 2 tickets to that last Jan and for this event I paid $112 and it was nowhere near close to that event even though it cost almost as much. I wasn't able to get a refund last year and I've been waiting for a year for a chance at another event because it looked so amazing. Sorry for the lengthy email and everything."
