Plenty of parking (on the grass) and at first I was wondering where did my daughter bring us -LOL (we are visiting from the DC area). You walk by some buildings that resemble old school simple shacks and then walk into an open (plenty of windows) type building which is where your family start the farm adventure. We met Riley who gave us the farm overview & had us sign Waivers. *** Waivers are upfront & smart*** You & your children are entering a working farm area with different types of animals (never predictable), equipment, woods, several playgrounds etc.. Wear play/work clothes and be ready to get farm messy. You walk through the building into a little slice of heaven for kids & adults whoever dreamed of having a farm. You have goats, chickens, Quail, bunnies and two awesome farm dogs - well one farm dog & one in training- LOL. We ended up exploring for hours, looking at the animals, picking fresh vegetables from the garden (highly encouraged) by Ivy (Owner), walking in the woods. Best of all following our little one from the sandbox to the swing-sets, to the playground in the woods. Speaking with the Farm Ladies, learned some of the back story and the journey to fulfill the dream. What a cool vision & so much hard work . The entrance building was relocated from a nearby town, all the buildings, equipment is mostly refurbished. Just a special place they wish to share with all. As we left, my wife & Daughter purchased some farm fresh items and our Grandaughter left kicking & screaming - LOL. She wanted to stay.

It is a little confusing when you get there because the first tent is to sign a waiver, and then you go to another place to pay for the attractions. The farm is free to enter and has a few free activities like photo ops and play items for the kids like slides and a sandbox. We got the tick for all three paid activities. The corn maze was great. It was challenging but not too hard. My son loved the apple cannon. The wagon ride is fun but be prepared to wait since it is a small wagon and very popular. They have food trucks if you want to stay and eat lunch. Pumpkin prices were reasonable and you could even pick one from the field.

Surprised there weren't more Yelp reviews for this place!…read more Originally came for the Corn Maze, stayed for literally everything else! What a family-friendly farm to spend some time enjoying the Fall weather. Everywhere we looked, there was something for the kids to play with. Giant slides, giant sandbox, giant CORN box, teepee, pumpkin theme tic-tac-toe, photo opp stations, pumpkin cannons and more! The best part was fitting in our yearly pumpkin patch tradition here, all made easy with provided wagons and apple pay! Did I mention that admission is free? Great way to pass the time with kiddos!

The family that owns the farm are intimately involved in all facets of the farm, including the tour. We met all of them and they couldn't have been nicer. They were an open book to the working of the farm and the thoroughbred business. It was well worth the time and money. In fact, it was a great value. The plus is Woodford Reserve Distillery is about a 3 minute drive from the farm, so we popped over there after. Great location and incredibly beautiful.

The son of the owners gave us the 90 minute tour of the spotless barns, beautiful mares and the brand new foals - one only 5 days old. Learned all about the breeding / foaling process, were able to take close up photos and even were able to pet the foals and mares. Everyone was so nice and the farm was one of the prettiest places I have ever seen. It is just next door to Woodford Distillery so combine the two for an unforgettable afternoon but reservations are a must at both properties. Note - you drive your own car to the barns and then to the house so don't Uber - you will need a to drive your own car.

It's mostly run by volunteers, who take care of the horses, cows, chickens, ducks, geese, goats and alpacas. All the animals look well taken care of and are definitely loving their best lives, and you can get up close to give them a pat, or if it's deemed available, give them some food. This is separate from the horse stables, but you can still see the horses when they are out in the pasture. It's kinda a one and done thing, but kids will love it, and it's an idyllic setting to be outside in nature.

A group that I belong to took a tour of Linbrook Heritage Estate near Greensboro and High Point,…read moreNC. It's out in the middle of nowhere, and few people even in the local area know much about it. The short version of how it came about: Jerry Neal co-founded RF Micro Devices (parts made by the company, now merged with Quorvo, are still used in most cells phones) , made a bunch of money. He bought several large tracts of land in Trinity, NC, near where his family have lived for more than 200 years, and he and wife LInda Neal set about building a 32,000 sq. ft. mansion, Linbrook Hall. In 2004, they completed this huge house, designed in the Classic Revival style and furnished with antiques collected by the owners over the years. For whatever reason, once the house was completed, the Neals decided they didn't want to live there but stayed in an unpretentious house nearby. (Perhaps, as a Quaker, Jerry Neal decided it wasn't a proper place for humble folks to live.) So, they have never lived in the mansion that took six years to build, Instead, they've made Linbrook Hall into a community place, a wedding venue and a site for corporate meeting. The estate is open to the public, although the hours and requirements for tours make seeing part of the estate a little less convenient than it could be. There are several parts to the estate, which, again is on different tracts of land in the same general area: Linbrook Hall, one of the largest private homes in the Southeast is on about 400 acres; Hoover House, originally built as a simple two-room farm house by Jerry Neal's maternal great-great grandparents and now restored; and the Neal Agricultural and Industrial Museum. This museum features among other things 22 meticulously restored John Deere tractors. The Neals live near the museum. Our group had a guided tour of three of the four floors of Linbrook Hall (the fourth, top floor is used as offices of Jerry Neal and the Linbook staff and also has a collection of antique radios, but this level is not open to the public). Then we had an excellent catered lunch in the formal dining room, which brings to mind the formal dining room of Biltmore House although it is not as large or as grand). Then we drove to the Historic Hoover House for a quick tour and then visited the Agricultural and Industrial Museum. I think the John Deere Tractor Museum was my favorite, with its perfectly restored tractors plus John Deere collectibles and memorabilia (I believe Jerry Neal is on the board of John Deere.) Altogether the tours and lunch took about four hours. Our cost was $70 per person, including the lunch with complimentary wine, and tours of the three main parts of the estate. That's a bargain! Regular admission prices for all of the Estate total $38, with reduced prices for those 65+ and youths. It's too bad that this attraction is not better known. You'd really have to do some marketing to bring people off the interstates to this very rural area. But I thought it was a wonderful way to spend four or five hours. Our tour guide, Allison Dark, was excellent.

We arrived about 1:30pm on a Saturday afternoon. The parking area had a dozen or so cars. We proceeded to the covered barn and were immediately greeted by the family. The young man was friendly and efficient, we also learned that veterans receive free admission which was a welcome surprise, very nice touch! We also learned they have swag including shirts, baseball hats, stickers and decals. They were selling Colts signature honey and Carolina Gold oils made from sunflowers. They were down to their last bottle of garlic oil so they set it aside for us. We grabbed a bucket which was already equipped with cutters for us to cut our own sunflowers. The back field was where we were headed and the casual stroll back was enjoyable. There are beautiful flowering bushes and flower fields along the way and I was able to capture several cool pics with butterflies as well. The sunflower field was beautiful and we immediately began taking pictures. We commented that we should have brought the drone to capture the farm. We ended up cutting eight sunflowers to take home and arrange. Once up at the covered barn area they wrapped the sunflowers up and we selected our various swag items. Very cool local family business. We asked and they told us this is their sixth year. Support local and enjoy the beauty of Dogwood Farms.

The alpacas wander around you while you're doing yoga and the instructor encourages you to take pictures. Candice was our instructor & she was phenomenal. She was so kind & encouraging which made the class a lot of fun. After yoga the staff is more than happy to take photos of you with the alpacas. You also get a bucket of food to feed them after the class is over. Alpaca yoga is only a couple of months a year but if you have the chance to do it, I highly recommend! You can also visit the alpacas and feed them for $10 which I'll definitely be back to do. They also have pumpkins and Christmas trees. Such a cool place to have in Greensboro!

We really enjoyed the salsiccia pie, but all of them sounded delicious. And had to get a half dozen cider donuts for the road, obviously.
