Thanks to a tip from Rachel’s friend Suellen, we visited a place called Pond Hill Farm with Rachel’s Aunt Jo and Uncle John, and found plenty of mischief to get into.
It had the usual jams, jellies, honey and other goodies, along with a cafe, winery, and brewery with local craft brews on tap. They also offered a hay ride of their grounds, which included a stop at a trout pond teeming with massive rainbows that fought for food like the carp at Cedar Point. No fishing allowed of course.
But the highlight was the Squash Rocket, a giant slingshot you can use to propel various vegetables into the pasture to their sheep. The squash were out of season, so we used potatoes, which were no less entertaining.
