What a find. Let me tell you when my partner said that we were taking a romantic weekend in…read moreSomerset I was a little bit concerned. But between the hiking trails and finding Summer Smiles Honey Farm the weekend was a blast. Possibly not romantic but a really great time. I was searching for Honey Farms in the area to pick up some local honey. When I found this Farm I saw that it was run by two women and I knew that I had to go there. Even though their hours that they were closed on Sunday I sent them a text just hoping that maybe for Memorial Day weekend they had different hours. I was pleasantly surprised, actually ecstatic, when I got a text back inviting us to the farm. Not only are they a honey farm they also run Airbnb. So if you're looking for a good time you can always rent out one of the air B&B rooms and then order their homemade food that is made in their kitchen on the farm. Honestly can you think of anything better than waking up and eating food that you were looking at or you can walk through. This was a great find. We also learn that they do pizza in their pizza oven that's outside, and music. I honestly cannot wait to go back. I purchase some honey, some bread, some eggs, and some of their butter. We then took a walk on the property with the dog and ended up in the barn meeting the rescued goats, pigs, and cow. Honestly it was great. Darci one of the owners, who showed us around, was absolutely wonderful. She was so warm and friendly and allowed us to see how she runs the farm all from a text message request to buy honey. That was the best part. Not only did she open up shop for us she talked to us for at least an hour and allowed us around the property to see how she runs the place. It was great. If you are looking for a place to stay while in Somerset stay here. They have four Airbnb rooms that look so fun and the menu that they cook up in their kitchen looks great. Just a sample the bread and the butter with some of that honey, yum yum. I can't imagine that anything that she cooks would taste bad. Try it out if you're around the area. You will not regret it.

Last evening one of my little boys and I stopped by to pick up wood fired pizza and salad, and he enjoyed watching his pizza being cooked outside on a winter night, and while we were there he was able to pop in to see a blacksmithing class and go sample some honey. One trip for take out pizza that will inspire hours of conversation about bees, blacksmithing, and cooking with open flames. My kids devoured the cheese pizzas and the grown ups loved our pie with foraged mushrooms and homemade sausage. My salad with goat cheese and pickled beets was delightful. This is a very special place in the Laurel Highlands. Don't miss it!

If you have a chance to visit this farm, do it! The tour experience is $9 per person and worth…read moreevery penny. You start the tour with a little bit of information about the farm and it's history. You then proceed to the automated milking machine area. It is fascinating. Totally automated. The cows choose when to enter and the machine takes care of the rest. It automatically washes them, connects, milks, analyzes quality and amount of milk and then completes the process. During the tour we saw three different cows get milked and were able to ask a ton of questions. After viewing this portion we entered the barn where all the cows currently being milked are. It was fun seeing their different personalities through how they interacted (or didn't) with the visitors. They even have cow massagers! Next we saw the calves. Some were born as recent as last week. Then came the hayride. It was a 20ish minute ride through the farm's beautiful property. One of the farm's owners was on with us to answer questions. I think the highlight for everyone was the tasting at the end. Each guest is given an individual container with several varieties that we tasted in a particular order. My favorite was the cheese curds. My daughter loved the pepper Jack and my son loved the pizza cheese. We also sampled the quark cheese spread (which is kind of a combination of cream cheese and goat cheese in texture and flavor). The tasting was completed with their chocolates which are stuffed with their quark cheese. Amazing. When the tour was completed we were free to visit with the cows again or make some purchases. Such a great experience that I highly recommend to everyone!

There were many wonderful scents to choose from.

They have a lot of unique flavors. Not a huge fan of the amount of food coloring used and some flavors do taste a little artificial or a bit too sweet for my adult taste buds. But the staff were nice in explaining what was in each flavor, double checking for allergies, and providing us samples. Their smallest size was $3.50 when I went this month which is decent. I like that they are flexible with the amount of flavors you can mix as long as it fits in the cup. Located in the midst of a farm you can cross the road to pet some cows making it a fun excursion with kids. Of course that also means that if you were to eat the ice cream outside, you will be greeted with the smell of manure and there really isn't any space inside to eat.
