Visiting a family farm can be a delightful, and economical, getaway: a chance to enjoy some fresh air and country life and probably some giant home-made breakfasts; and of course kids love to be around the animals.

One link gets you to many family farm choices in Pennsylvania: all are members of the Pennsylvania Farm Vacation Association Inc. Use a clickable map to locate farms, and you can search by amenities or animals, too. You can also find links for family farms in Maine, Vermont, and other locations.
