It’s easy to fall for White Post Farms where a visit sets a delightful tone like the kind you enjoy on a family vacation. Only it’s close by and exceeds your expectations when the family wants to pick pumpkins, take a hayride or see animals. Hours of memorable entertainment here include a visit to a giraffe enclosure where you meet Patches and Oliver and “Poppies Lorikeet Landing” to see the colorful free-flying birds. Treats don’t stop there. The farm has a petting zoo, primate exhibit, gourmet market, and garden center. Visitors seem to love the aviary and letting birds eat out of your hands or land on their shoulders. Kids will never forget the coolest “pony ride place” ever where they also got to see camels and zebras.
