A trip to the SpringHouse is about so much more than indulging in a scrumptious ice cream treat. Stop by the market then the bakery to stock up on fresh pies and other homemade goodies.
And, if you're hungry, sit down to a meal at the SpringHouse Restaurant. Enjoy a homecooked meal of spiced rubbed ribs, carving ham, or roast turkey and stuffing.
The restaurant features a weekday menu and a weekend menu, brimming with old-fashioned favorites.
Of course, the farm also hosts fun events throughout the year. Visit during the Great Pumpkin Weekends, which begin in late September and feature hay rides, a pumpkin patch, a corn maze, and more.
Tour the sprawling farm in 2019. SpringHouse predominately offers tours for groups. However, one day is set aside to host smaller groups. The Small Group Farm Tour Day date has not yet been decided for next year.
