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!

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.

We had such a nice day at the Cape May Zoo last week! It was a beautiful Spring day and the…read moreperfect time to beat the crowds and enjoy some nice fresh air and see the animals/creatures! If you try to get there early, parking is definitely easier and closer to the Zoo entrance. We got there around 1pn and it was starting to fill up. The good news is that zoo parking is FREE and so is the fee to get in. They ask for a donation and we were happy to provide a donation for such a great experience! I can ony imagine the upkeep for a zoo - - the property upkeep and animal care, the workers, etc. There were so many animals that were already out with many more that are starting to be brought back outside since the weather is getting warmer. Don't miss this treat when you're in Cape May - - or make a special trip alone - -it's great for kids and for people any age! The park is very clean, has plenty of rest rooms, food/drink and also a beatiful playground when you first get to the zoo. The only animals we really missed were the Giraffes. I'm sure they were somewhere -- and they dont really like the cold temps - - I'm sure they'll be back as it warms up. They dont like temps under 50 - - i dont blame them. And don't sleep on the reptiles - - the turtles, frogs, snakes and alligators are waiting for you! All in all, we were there for about 2 hours. I would guess when it's more crowded, it may take a bit longer to get through the exhibits. So go now and have fun before Memorial Day gets here. :)

The alpacas were also active, and we saw bison, some birds, some reptiles, and a wallaby. But this zoo definitely needs some TLC as we did not see many of the animals expected as listed on the website. I know that animals might not be active during a particular visit, but there were enclosures that either had a sign on it or looked like there was definitely "no one home." There is a small cafe with hot dogs and hot pretzels, a slushie truck, and a small gift store. The adjacent playground is a plus, and the whole surrounding park area looks like a great place to walk on the trails. Don't forget to leave a donation so that they can stay open and stay free!

For us, this was a very impromptu side trip on the way to a Shorebirds game since we had a little…read moreextra time, and the weather was fantastic. Having a clue about the layout helps tremendously since things are a bit... squirrely. salisburyzoo.org/be-our-guest/map/ You've got a small parking lot (maybe 20 cars) on South Park Drive and then another lot on the other side of the zoo on Beaver Dam Drive that's slightly larger. While that seems easy enough, most of the zoo is a small maze of interconnected walkways. It's very easy to miss something or double back on yourself while not knowing where to go. The animals here are for the most part small time. Think some reptiles, crane, flamingos, a crow, alpaca, deer, goat, lynx, etc. The biggest would be two bald eagles, a few small bears and two or three bison. This isn't the National Zoo in DC or the zoo in Philly. If you're walking at a brisk pace and ignoring the empty enclosures, you could slam through here easy in 30 minutes and have seen everything. We were fast, but not that fast. Doing a slow roll through and seeing everything took about 75-80 minutes. IMHO, any review for this zoo should be/needs to be automatically skewed higher simply because it's free. I mean within reason; how do you take a dump on something that's free? With that said, know before you go what's here and what's not here to keep your expectations in check and you should have a good time.

It was not about the yoga, it was about the goats! So many great pictures. The handlers and instructor were so good with the goats and all participants. We loved the little tiny ones they snuggled, they tried to eat your hair. They even peed on a bride-to-be! It's good luck! I would highly recommend it for anyone, young, older, animal lovers or novice to yoga!

The woman with short blonde hair that checked me in and out was super friendly and explained everything thoroughly. Cons: the old men working the gate on weekends are like nazis. The one car per site rule is REDICULOUS considering the over flow lot is NOT walkable. It was me my 2 kids and my bf. First off we drive his car around bc its better on gas then my truck. Second he had to leave to head home at 5am. I shouldn't have to wake my children up at 5am to drive him to the front of this huge place. It was pretty empty didn't see many people at any of the campers around me. The sewer pipe was side ways. No way to set your tube up so it could flow. It was causing my camper to stink!!
