This is just one example of what you can do on a farm here. People come from all over just to enjoy our scenic beauty and to experience the culture - or to see a cow close up. If you get up when the roosters crow, you can milk a cow or help feed a calf. Most farms are family owned and operated and many have roadside stands with freshly picked fruits and vegetables. Many farms offer logging or a chance to pet the animals and gather eggs for breakfast.
Fairs are a long-standing tradition at harvest time.
Some light up the sky with carnival rides and others are purely agricultural with tractor driving contests, milking tournaments and blue ribbon competitions between prized dairy cattle, hogs and sheep. To find out more about Cherry Crest Farm, click here .
