If anyone has ever told you they had never been to smiling hill farm growing up, they're lying. That giant slide, riding around on a mini john deer tracker, oh and the duck pond where you were attacked by geese for a piece of moldy bread., and lets not forget the ICE CREAM! man I'm such a fat kid for some good ice cream...Aww good times..So of course I would have to take my child to this wonderful place now she has been several times since she has been born cause lets face it, its cheap and theres ice cream involved. Smiling hill farm is still a fun place for kids but i will say it has changed over the last 20 years there is no slide or mini tractors, but they do have cute animals, play structures, and the Ice Cream is still fantastic.
It was a beautiful day at the farm when we went last week. We were lucky to have some friends there to play with..nothing like good company to add to a great day. The thing i love about smiling hill farm is it is a wide open area so if you have a child that is mobile you can just let them explore and still be able to keep an eye on them. the place is clean which is a bonus and they usually have a baby cow just hanging out to get an up close experience with. The staff is always friendly and helpful with providing animal names and info which by the way we were told that there will be baby sheep and goats arriving soon. They also have a store where you can buy flavored milk or cream, and the ice cream is made from their own milk and cream. My daughter had a great time running around feeding the animals, playing in the wooden train and "driving" Mary Ann its a great place to spend the afternoon, or morning, pack a picnic lunch or order a sandwich and pull up some lawn and enjoy the simple things in life.
my kids loved that place...back when it had a full petting zoo....I have great pics of them there.
