Begin
the day at Eyestone Flower Farm in Bloomville,
Ohio. Meander through rows of gladiolus, breathe in the aromatic
scent of oriental lilies, and watch dainty heads of strawberry
fields dance in the breeze. You'll see the working process of
flowers grown from bulbs and seeds to their delivery at farm markets
and florists.
Afterwards,
visit the Malabar Farm Restaurant for lunch,
serving up more than history, featuring all natural and fresh
farm products from their own farm market. After lunch, learn about
the gentle, curious, and easy way to care for alpacas at Hidden
Hilltop Alpaca Ranch. Relax
and enjoy petting the alpacas and visit the farm store to see
products made from Alpaca fleece.
Next,
what better way to create a great shopping stop than the Blueberry
Patch and Greenhouse. Visit the gift shop, greenhouse,
nursery, and don't forget
to stop into the new Blossom Café and Tea Room for a delightful
snack or drink. Pick your own blueberries in the 12-acre blueberry
patch or enjoy the convenience of fresh pre-picked berries.
Take
a step back in time before departing for home at the Olivesburg
General Store. Established in 1840, the store has antiques,
pottery, hardware, deli and Amish cheese, trail bologna, and hand-dipped
ice cream from an original marble ice-cream counter. |
