In mid-October, we took the boys to Fox Hollow Farm to pick out pumpkins. The family farm is a sanctuary for abused or abandoned animals. I’ll let the pictures tell the story, but this farm is full of fun things to see and do. It was our first time there, and we all had a great time. Already looking forward to our next visit!

The first thing we came to at the farm was this adorable miniature neighborhood. It included 4-5 little two-story, four-room houses for the kids to play and run around in. The boys had a blast. I would have loved this as a child!

I had to explore!

The farm was full of free-range roosters, hens, peacocks, and much more.

Our pumpkins!

Silas loved saying hi to all the kittens…

…and the chicks…

…and the cows.

There were train rides…

…and Avery found a giant A to take a picture in front of.

One of the highlights was this “race track” in front of the house. There were about a dozen little Jeeps and ATV’s for the kids to take turns in.

The hay maze and corn pit!

We had a brief scare at the hay maze. All three boys went in one end and Jonathan and I headed to the other side to meet them by the corn pit. What we didn’t realize was that Silas came back out the entrance and wandered off. After a bit of searching we found him with one of the employees behind a concessions counter, just as I was approaching full-blown panic mode. (It’s a decent-sized farm and there is a river just a few yards away from the hay maze.) I’m thankful the staff knew just what to do with a little guy on his own.
