ABOUT
Smiling Hill Farm
Smiling Hill Farm is a working dairy farm with a barnyard animal exhibit where visitors can interact with domestic farm animals. Meet with the sheep and goats in the petting areas. See the newest babies in the maternity barn and newest hatches in the hatching house (May – August). The Smiling Hill Farm Ice Cream Barn serves ice cream, milk, lunch and snacks. Smiling Hill Farm works in a way that is sensitive to the environment, bottling milk in reusable glass bottles, collecting whey from cheese to feed pigs, refusing to apply chemical fertilizers, and actively exploring alternative forms of energy.

FUN FACTS
The average American may eat 125 pounds of potatoes each year, but corn is actually America’s number one field crop, providing ingredients for cereals, peanut butter, snack foods and soft drinks. The average person eats 68 quarts of popcorn a year alone! Use a trip to an agricultural farm to find out where our fruits and vegetables come from. Compare organic, pesticide-free, and genetically engineered crops. Research the products made possible by crops grown in the U.S. (shampoos, crayons, and baseball bats all come from agricultural products, for example). Ask your local farm about the benefits of eating local or growing your own garden.
