Such is the humble beginnings of Allentown New Jersey, halfway between New York & Philadelphia. This was all before Snookie & MTV trashed all things Jersey and created late night TV fodder for all those talking heads, despite the fact that those Jersey Shore invaders were not Jerzee natives. In 1706 Nathan Allen bought much of the farmland and built 3 mills and the area was known as Allen's Town, and morphed into today's Allentown. George Washington slept here on his way to Crossing the Delaware. That building is still on Main St. So many historical little goodies for you history buffs. Now, for the fest right on Main St. The 2nd weekend of October every year. The weather makes all the difference, ... get a nice sunny day and you can take in all the charm of this lively little town and enjoy and stuff your face with your favorite Jersey tasty treat. Pork roll-n-cheese, sausage-n-peppers, sweet local corn, Fried clams/clam rolls, Zeppoles (Jersey's fried dough with powdered sugar, so bad and soooo good) and then every local restaurant sets up shop to show off their signature dishes. When you're done prepare to roll out smiling with a satisfied pallet! The Civil War reenactment in the adjacent park is very well done and Nerdvana for us History geeks :-) Definitely a cool stop on fall day!

Started our family Easter fun at this farm!…read more There's parking right on the premise. Asked for handicap parking but was guided to park with the rest. Either way the walk from the lot to the farm is short. Tickets are purchased at the ticket booth not in advanced. $12 per child is a great deal! Adults are free. If you're going to have the little ones participate in the egg hunt, even if under 2, a ticket much better purchased for them. I recommend doing it for cute photo ops and for a fun developmental experience. Additional fees for add ons such a gem mining. The fun zone was so much fun! Everything listed on their website is exactly what they have. People were considerate all around keeping distance and taking turns. A helpful tip would be to add the weight capacity to activities such as the zip line. The decor all around was so cute for Easter. Having a character cow and Easter bunny was a huge highlight for all the kids as they arrived. Great way to enter the farm! The characters interacted with all socially from the min we arrived till we left. My kid got to do a bunny hop dance with the bunny. There's an Italian food truck located right on the premise. Here you'll find food such as an Italian sausage and peppers, zeppoles and basics like chicken tenders, fries, burgers, hot dogs etc. Food was all good. There are tables on site but due to covid seatings limited. Don't forget the hayride that's include for all. There is a farmers market as located right at the entrance. Didn't get a chance to check it out but will when I return.

Snipe's Farm is a 200 year old family owned farm in Bucks County surrounded by 150 year old trees on acres and acres of bucolic pasture. When inside you would never know you're just a stones throw from I95 and Route 1! Here's a few reasons why Snipes is so awesome- -Their shows are reasonably priced with early bird online specials. They use Ticket Leap as they have the lowest fees of any ticket distributor. You can pay cash at the gate for a few more dollars day of show. -They're BYO!! Say what?!! The just ask that you not bring glass. We usually get margarita in a bag and bring cups. Many bring rolling coolers and keep their glass in the coolers and just pour into cups as needed. You may NOT walk around with glass beer bottles. -You can BYO food too! -All shows are general admission. Bring your own lawn chairs, blankets, inflatable furniture, even pop up canopies. They do have two large tents for shade already set up on the lawn area. These seats obviously go first. -Children under 12 are FREE with paid adult! IF they do charge for a child for certain events, it's just $5 -Parking is just $5! They strongly encourage carpooling. -The staff is so chill. Very cool older hippies. All very nice. They don't patrol, but won't tolerate any behavior that makes their events not family-friendly. -They have both food and shopping vendors. -The farm is also home to animals and a dog daycare. You would never know this as the concert area does not smell like you're on a farm. They also offer CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) shares and offer show discounts to those signed up for them. Apparently they have the best free range eggs here. Snipe's also host many class trips throughout the year as well as a farm based summer camp you can pay weekly for. We personally LOVE their annual Grateful Dead music Festival called "In & Out Of The Garden We Go"! We have attended for years now and it's something we look forward to every June with our family to kick off the summer festival season. I've been to many, many festivals in my day and this is a truly a great one! It's so incredibly family-friendly. Our girls love it just as much as we do. There are tons of kids of all ages running around barefoot, dancing, playing with balls, hula hoops, and a bubbles. This year we brought beads for the kids, ours and the friend they made to make bracelets. The staff gave out show tee shirts and candy to all the kiddos! The lineup is all terrific local cover bands acts and the music is non-stop. They have a smaller side stage and larger stage next to it. There's no set breaks or dead time for set up or breakdown. The next band is ready to go immediately when the prior band finishes. Oh, and the sound is fantastic! The lights at night are fun too! They have great local vendors selling all sorts of hippie wares from patches and stickers, hand lured soy candles, tie dyes of course, up-cycled goods too. This year they even had someone doing live paintings and selling goods made from recycled Christmas Trees. The food vendors are delicious and often vegan and vegetarian foods although you can certainly bring your own snacks and meals. This specific festival is all weekend long and you can camp right there! People have views of the stage right from their tent or trailer! Very cool! The music will play from 11am-1am the next night (day) non-stop! You really get your money's worth! This year Saturday started with community yoga!! Tickets can be either Fri night, all day Saturday, or a weekend pass which includes camping. We have never camped yet as our schedule just hasn't allowed it but we stay all day Saturday and it's wonderful This festival gives me a sense of what life would be like on a hippie commune back in the 60's. It's so freeing and there's such a great, warm atmosphere. The people are a great crowd. Everyone just gets it. It's such a nice change from the price gouging and big named venues nowadays. Check their website and/or Facebook to see upcoming shows! If you're a regular concert-goer, you must see a show here!

Can you tell which are statues?…read more Years ago I went to Grounds For Sculpture, a 42 acre outdoor and indoor art exhibit with gorgeous gardens and every type of art you can learn and imagine. My boys were too young to appreciate it back then. This time we did it differently. Prior to going, we did a lesson on different types of art. We created slides to help teach us different types of art. I have included the slides so you can share these to your kids as an art lesson. While we were at the Grounds For Sculpture, I have to tell you... the way the Realism Art, Pop Art, and Abstract Impression Art Blended with its natural surroundings, my eyes began to play tricks on me! For a split second, regular people sitting on a bench looked like statues too! It's very well done! This place creates a dream like state. Go to the Meadow section first! It's a lot of walking so don't go on a hot day. #groundsforsculpture #nj #art

This may sound overly exuberant, but I love this place!…read more Founded in 1992 by J. Seward Johnson (a Johnson & Johnson heir) his goal was to build a contemporary sculpture garden for the public to enjoy. The property was initially the site of the Jersey fairgrounds and later the Trenton Speedway. (It's so peaceful and lovely here, it's hard to imagine the raucous noise of racecars.) We signed up for a walking tour -- free with the price of admission -- which runs for about an hour. In addition, friendly docents walking around the grounds stopped to chat offering great information -- even some juicy gossip! Be sure to pull up the app on your phone which we found helpful. The garden is closed Tuesday. One of the sites said admission is timed, but mid-week we were able to simply show up. Note that veterans and seniors pay reduced admission. Parking is free and there's a restaurant/coffee shop in the welcome center that's an inviting place to refuel. The photos I snapped are the garden's realistic representations, but there's a whole host of contemporary sculpture, all very different with their own stories.

It's right next to Princeton's campus and the Battle of Trenton Memorial. My husband is a big fan of all the Signers of the Declaration, and unlike a more restored house about the people who owned the house, it focuses on the Stockton family who lived here and the American Revolution and a special exhibit. We were actually here for a few hours since there's a lot of signs to read and a lot of Richard Stocktons who lived in the house, followed by some governors. When I went, there was also a really interesting exhibit on Ma Bell and the history of telecommunications upstairs. This was a great historical site, a cheap price, and a nice space. Would love to come back when the garden is in bloom, and I will look out for future exhibitions as they rotate in.
