NYC’s Best Hidden Gem: Old Windmill Farm
Where Baby Animals Steal Your Heart! 🐑💕 📍 Old Windmill Farm Just 2.5 hours from NYC in Pennsylvania’s Amish country, this family-run farm lets you cuddle newborn animals—from piglets to lambs, bunnies to chicks! 🐷 Why You’ll Love It: • Hold baby animals (prepare for uncontrollable squealing). • Feed horses grass, bottle-feed calves, even try milking a cow (they’re giant fluffy walls!). • Two farm dogs patrol—a buff sheepdog and a husky mix who demand belly rubs. 🚜 Tour Options: • 60-min Amish Farm Tour (23):∗∗Wagonride∗∗+∗∗animalcuddles∗∗.•∗∗90−minComboTour∗∗(32): Adds seasonal veggie picking. ⚠️ Pro Tips: • Check-in is past the shops—follow the grassy path left. • Weekends get busy—book early. • Wear boots (it’s a real farm, not a petting zoo). 🌽 Extend Your Trip: • Amish Village: Learn about buggies and homemade quilts. • Bird-in-Hand Market: Fresh pies, jams, cheeses. • Longwood Gardens: Epic flowers 30 mins away. #NYCWeekend #AmishCountry #FarmLife #BabyAnimals #PAAdventures
