Weekend at a farm!

When our father shared his idea of taking the grandkids on a vacation at a farm, my sister and I were a little taken aback. Having made the decision, though, that our family would take at least one trip together each year, we decided that we'd see what we could find. We spent quite a bit of time researching different areas and making lists of possible locations, but never felt like we'd found "the one". Luckily, I decided to check one of our earliest search sites and was pleasantly surprised to see Tyner Pond Farm had been added to the list. It sounded like the exact experience we'd been searching for and happened to be only a short distance away.
Each member of the family had a great time while at the farm; we ranged in ages from 2 years all the way to Grandma and Grandpa. The kids had a wonderful time spending time with the animals and exploring the barns on the property. The adults learned a lot from Chris as he explained his farming methods. We loved the fact that Chris was so willing to let everyone participate in a few of the daily chores. Needless to say, everyone enjoyed the beautiful house, WOW!! Spending time at the farm made us all slow down a little bit, if only for a weekend, and really enjoy one another's company without a lot of other distractions. It was a great place for the family to reconnect and recharge, and most importantly Grandpa got to enjoy "farming" with the grandkids!
