The 1st Farm Discovery Tour of Morrison’s Cove will be held Sept. 18 and 19. This tour is a free event intended to showcase farms and farm products to anyone with an interest in farms. Many of the participating locations will have special events for the entire family, showcasing that family is very important to these businesses. We encourage you to visit all tour locations to experience the wide variety of products, activities, and experiences—see how food is grown, dig for potatoes, purchase fresh fruit and vegetables, milk a goat, hayride tours of some of the farms, pick your own pumpkin from the pumpkin patch, tour a dairy farm, look inside a cheese cellar, see reindeer, talk with Penn State Master Gardeners, learn about hunter’s safety, see ring neck pheasants, purchase hand-made decorations from “down on the farm”, see a period dress style show, and learn how the iron industry and farming went hand-in-hand. Feel free to take the tour in whatever order you want that suits your time and interests. Participants are: Friends Farm, Bridenbaugh Farm Market, Hinish Farm Market, Peach Hill Orchard, Mill Hill Farms, Ojala Farm & Clover Creek Cheese Cellar, JB Tree Farm, Piney Creek Greenhouse, Jeannette’s Country Florals, The I’Diehl Hunt, and Royer Mansion.
