A Farm with a Little of Everything

Linvilla Orchards is a farm that my family and I visited today. It was not the first time we had been there, we went last year in August and had a great time. This place has a little of everything: fishing, pick your own fruits and vegetables, farm store, plants, flowers, children’s maze, petting zoo, and an incredible playground. It is located in Media PA so it is about an hour or so from Bucks County pretty much straight down 95.

We first started our day by doing some fishing on their private stocked pond. They picked us up via a tractor and it was a short drive to the pond. We fished there for a while with each of us catching five fish each. When we were done the tractor picked us up again n

Upon our return we headed down to the playground. The playground is filled with wooden cars, trucks, airplanes, castles, and a pirate ship. It was so neat. My son and nephew ran from each wooden play thing over and over again. Sliding down poles and slides. Climbing to the top of the castle and down. There was also a ton of shade, which made me very happy.

We tried the maze, got lost, found our way out, did it again, and then helped some people find their way out. Next to the maze was the petting zoo. We did not do this, we were getting tired and were getting ready to leave. We decided to stop at the farm store before we headed out for some drinks. The store was cool, they had home made items and fresh fruit and veggies. The fruit and veggies looked fresh and clean. We got some fruit and drinks and proceeded on our way.

All in all we spent about six hours there and did not even take a chip out of all that could be done there. If we did not go fishing I am sure we would have been able to do it all but I am too into fishing. We will head back in the Fall to do everything else.

If you are looking for a fun day at a farm head out to Linvilla Orchards you will not be disappointed.
