For wholesome fun, consider Alstede farms, a welcoming, family-friendly environment. Move through the sunflower maze and into the endless apple vineyard, choose from a variety of apple types: Gala, Red Delicious, Fuji, Granny Smith, Honey Crisp. Golden Delicious. McIntosh, and Ambrosia. Keep the momentum going with a joy ride on the hayride. Animal lovers will appreciate feeding chickens, ducks, turkeys, and goats, or mounting a pony.

Before departing, discover the farm’s shop, with an array of freshly picked produce, grass-fed meats, home-baked goods, treats, and ice cream, and daily made donuts. For a hot meal, head on over to The Hen House.
