This market is open 10 a.m.-1 p.m. on Sundays... I took my daughter over this morning, and had an…read moreoverall pleasant experience. This market is small though, and there wasn't a ton of produce to choose from. I did score some fresh zucchini for dinner tonight... and the lady helping me was super nice. I also got some iced coffee- the lady manning that stand was telling a gentleman all about her business troubles and didn't have a ton of time for me, though she did call out a few hints in between paragraphs with her friend "There's a trash can right behind you"... "and I've already liquidated the business", etc... Finally, I stopped by a bakery stand with several nice ladies that made a fuss about how cute my daughter was. I ended up buying a blueberry muffin that was pretty good- a little dense but great flavor with fresh berries and not too sweet... and two cookies that unfortunately were undercooked... they looked good, but the insides were raw... So overall, lots of nice people, we're glad we checked this place out, and we'll probably give it another try in a few weeks when there may be more produce available.

Then, wait for them to shake and wrap your tree before loading it in the car. You pay for the tree on the way out so follow the signs and at attention to the two lines based on forms of payment. A great place for a fun-filled adventure! You can also opt for a pre-cut tree. If you're looking for a tree, I have no doubt you'll find the perfect one at Mayne's!

Airy and surrounding towns, fresh, local food & hand made products"- Dropped by here this afternoon, a big plus is Sunday hours in early March. Beautiful farmland- idyllic setting in farm outbuildings. We could see some lambs in an adjacent barn and it appeared there were numerous farm animals about, my thought ran to upcoming spring and summer and how much the children would enjoy this place. The store is small and a bit cramped, but we were hit with wonderful aromas on entering- homemade herbal soaps, freshly baked cookies, pies, cobblers and pasta. A refrigerator held a variety of local cheeses, fresh eggs, farm fresh milk and cream, and a freezer held the good stuff- bacon, farm-raised beef, hot dogs, sausages, and jerky. Oh how I love jerky. Children in the market were negotiating for different flavors of frozen custard that looked great. The lovely lady at the counter explained that the owner sends farm-raised meats to the butcher, and that a family pack type order could be placed. The jerky must have been processed by a place in PA per the label- it was fabulous. Thin and dry and perfectly seasoned, I at least got it home and defrosted before I devoured it. I also picked up some summmer sausage- have not tried it yet, but the smell is tantalizing and I'm looking forward to slicing some with some of the horseradish cheddar, some crackers and something to drizzle the honey over- yes, local honey. Wow. I may just eat it out of the jar, it is that good. Not much local produce- there is none yet, but I am looking forward to stopping back by later in the season, with the children- and the camera!.

This place is going to become a family favorite for years to come!…read more I took the kids last weekend to see the lamb that were only a week old! There were chickens running around too! It was our first time at England Acres and it is absolutely beautiful farmland! We met Judy and Hannah. Hannah took us over to the barn and picked up one of the lamb and let my daughter hold him. My daughter was so excited! We headed back inside and picked up eggs, bacon, lamb, steaks, and chicken. Nothing beats grass farm fresh food that comes from a place that is right down the street and where the animals have been very well taken care of. Don't get me wrong, it's pricey, but it's worth every penny to support a local farm, for the flavor of the food, and for your health!

There isn't a large farm or storefront to greet you, just turn off the main road and drive the road to park and start pickin'. I love that the people are friendly, that they provided buckets (although you can bring your own), and they don't try to price-gauge you for every little thing. We picked some strawberries and sugar snap peas, both smaller than what you would be used to at the grocery stores, but packed with so much delicious flavor! The girls had an absolute blast going through the fields, even trying to squeeze in a taste (we had to hawk-eye watch them). I loved feeling like we were supporting a local business, but also what farms should be and what I grew up with (We didn't have to make a reservation, we didn't have to pay for each person, we just paid for what we picked) It's not a huge operation, but it did the job for us. Thank you Glade Link, we'll be back! *Call them first before going (their voicemail has all the details) *Porta potty

They have multiple playgrounds and animal coops/cages to visit. On cooler days, their small market is the way to go. Today on Facebook I saw they had a $25 CSA box that came with huge carrots, oranges, butter lettuce, mushroom carton, apples and a chicken pot pie! I thought it was a great deal. The CSA is available from Friday-Sunday and you pay first and then collect the produce outside in your own bag/box. The market also had some baked items, frozen meats and jarred goods available. I highly recommend the farm animal cupcakes with the cutest faces and the creamiest frosting!

My family and I purchased our tickets in advance and we saved $3 vs. purchasing at the door. Check-in was a long line but it was moving rather well. Once in, you are given instructions on how to pick the tulips. Your ticket includes 6 tulips and then each additional stem $1 and each additional bulb is $1. The weather was AMAZING and there were so many cute photo ops in the field. This is a very family friendly place, including infants and babies! After we picked our tulips, we sat around to take in the view. When we were ready to check out, there were stations to trim the ends and take the tulips in a water cup. The property this weekend had music, cidery, farm animals, and other cute fun barn games for kids. I highly recommend you to check out the farm!
