A Fall Favorite: Peach Tree Farm


Over this past weekend, my family visited Peach Tree Farm.  Located just West of Columbia, at the Wooldridge exit off I-70 (exit # 111), it is a great place for adults & children of all ages.  My son, Colten, is 16 months and he had a blast, signified by the long nap on the ride home. 

If you want pumpkins, they've got every kind you can imagine! From little gourds & squash to pumpkins that I couldn't pick off the ground if I tried...they've got a type for everyone. 

For the kids, they've got a straw maze and lots of animals to visit including goats, chickens, bunnies, catfish, donkeys & turkey! You can even feed the goats.  Most kids enjoy just being able to run around and climb on the horses made of corn stalks, stick their head thru a cutout of a scarecrow or daisies, or hang out in the teepee.  But, Colten's favorite part was the hayride.  Being pulled by a tractor on a huge wagon and visiting all the different spots on the farm, including a circle around the lake, was the highlight of his day. 

At $5 a person, its great affordable fun and you could spend several hours out there.  They are open for the Fall Festival from Oct 1- Oct 31, so make sure to plan your trip soon.  They are open 7 days a week, 10 am to dark Monday thru Saturday and 1 pm to dark on Sunday.
