It’s already been proven time after time that out around the Finger Lakes you can find some of the best wine and even grape pies that our state has to offer. Something you may be unfamiliar with though? The fact that this region is home to handfuls of dairy farms that are stocked with great-tasting products like milk and cheese. Giving you a taste at what our small towns have to offer, come and see why you’ll have such a wonderful time at this unique goat dairy farm in Tioga County.
Different from the average farm that you're used to going to for cheese and milk, Side Hill Acres in the small town of Candor is actually a goat dairy farm!
Throughout the year, Side Hill Acres offers Educational Tours where you'll start off by getting to see the cheese processing plant where their award-winning cheeses are made on site.
And as much as I love leaving Side Hill Acres with roughly 150 new four-legged friends, one of my favorite parts about coming here is exploring their gift shop.
Take a look around the gift shop and you'll see that the shelves are lined with a variety of products and goods, almost all of which are made right here at Side Hill Acres farm.
From cheese fudge and crumbly feta to fresh mozzarella and cream cheese, the variety of cheeses in this gift shop will have your dairy desiring heart leaping out of your chest.
Committed to making quality goat milk products, come and taste the goodness for yourself and meet the heart of the farm by paying a visit to Side Hill Acres dairy goat farm in Candor.
Closed on both Sundays and Tuesday, you can visit Side Hill Acres and their Gift Shop on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Thursday from 8 a.m. to 12 p.m. Wondering when a great time to visit is? Well, on October 6th, Side Hill Acres will be hosting the Candor Fall Festival! During the festival, you can tour the goat farm, enjoy cheese, cider, and wine tastings, and even see apple pressing and spinning wheel demonstrations.
