He loves fire trucks and police cars so when he saw he could sit in both AND wear coats for each, he was so excited. When it came time for lunch and birthday activities, we had our own space away from the crowd. There was plenty of room for the kiddos to sit and enjoy their meal. The staff was great and there when we needed anything. My best friend brings her daughter here often so I hope we can bring my son back next time we visit the area.

They…read morehave a wonderful setup full of pretend play buildings complete with costumes and accessories. Both of my children love coming here even though there is a 4 year age gap between them. They've done a nice job of creating a space with things for all ages and energy levels. They also have kid-friendly restrooms, a mother's room for pumping or nursing, and a quiet area for kids who are over stimulated. It really feels like they've thought of everything. Pricing is reasonable and they have subscription packages available. They are also very allergy friendly if you need a safe space for a child with life-threatening allergies.

The U-pick flowers were only $10 and the zinnias had these delicate colorful speckles on the petals, and it comes with a mason jar vase. The live music was a great cover singer and guitar player. It's very family friendly - there are hay bales for photo ops and a dedicated play area. There are lots of tables to eat or rest up. The pulled pork sandwich was seasoned really well, and the mac & cheese was hot and the ultimate comfort food. They had a lot of options for alcoholic cider, and you can't forget their donuts. I snagged the Whoopie donut sandwich that came with buttercream on the inside. Easy parking and I paid $28 for two people to pick a lot of apples. It's well worth the money, the staff was incredibly friendly, and the vibes were immaculate.

I also bought some juicy cling peaches, a tasty little cantaloupe, and a beautiful fresh cut sunflower. They also had string beans, honey, cherries, corn and many other things and shoo fly pie was available for purchase. I noticed you could buy individual slices. The service was friendly. As many have mentioned the parking lot is tight, and I'd advise leaving on US 222 North as trying to go south out of there could prove difficult. I will definitely stop again when I'm in the area.

So after driving by this produce stand on 222 for the past more years than I can remember, the…read morechildren finally convinced me to make a stop on the way back from playing some mini golf at Schell's. The parking area is no more than a small dirt spot, small enough that I can't seriously call it a lot, that can fit only a few cars and you really need to think about the angle you park on because getting back out onto 222 during busier traffic times will be interesting, i.e. deadly, if you have to try to back out or attempt some other similar nonsense. You also can't miss the old wooden signs that they have all along 222 North advertising everything from Shoo Fly Pie, Raisin Pie, Whoopee Pie and all of the various produce items that they are currently selling. Also worth noting is that the location that Yelp has them listed at currently, 222 Pleasant Hill Road in Berks County PA, is of course wrong as they are at the intersection of Pleasant Hill Road and Route 222 in Fleetwood. I've sent in links that show what their official address is per the Yellow Pages but you know how things work with Yelp. Inside the stand they have several tables of produce (potatoes, tomatoes, peaches, watermelon, cantaloupe, honey, cucumbers, zucchini, etc.) along with various arts/crafts items and even a small area with things like pot holders and quilts. There is also a fridge with milk, eggs, and a few drinks and desserts. The only thing worth noting is that the staff are not big on talking with us Englishmen so don't be put off if you are not always greeted or if they are a little awkward if you ask a question about a product. Just let what they sell do the talking and you'll be happy with what you got.

This is the best playground in the area. My kids (ages 4 and 2) love this playground. The big…read moreslides are super fun and the steps to the slides wear them out which is great for parents. If you want your small children to nap, then have them walk up the steps to the slides a dozen times. There is a nice variety of playground equipment for all ages including swings, a 3 person seesaw, spinning/ climbing thing, etc. All the equipment has a castle theme which is super cute. I love that the entire playground is fenced in with fences high enough that young kids definitely cannot get over. The fencing around the steps/ platforms for the slides is also super safe to prevent falls. I feel totally comfortable letting my kids walk up and slide down by themselves while I wait at the bottom. Bathrooms nearby are better than most playgrounds. The only downside is that there isn't a lot of shade. Some benches are shaded but none of the playground equipment is shaded so you feel like you're baking on a hot day. There are covered benches at the entrance of the playground for parents. But your kids will have so much fun that they'll barely notice how hot they are.

We got to ride the horse in the woods like a little trail ride while the others played on playground or went to the pavilion where we had snacks and a little petting farm area. It was cute and allowed for me to be more of the host. I liked it cuz it was like renting the space but they provided the petting farm and the pony rides. And we were not rushed out of there. Dry laid back and it was a private party area with a separate air conditioned and modern bathroom. They offered a pool option for an additional hour if we wanted it. The pool looked good and wish I did it. My friend ended up doing the pool and it was a completely tailored to her liking so I think they work with you. She had a certified lifeguard who really did watch the pool closely. And helped with tubes and swimmies and things. Highly recommend. They have been in business 52 years and it shows.

Wishing them all the best with this! Just what Pottstown needs more of!

The bartender Anthony was super knowledgeable about All the PA spirts & beers & made a wicked mule. The infused vodka flights were awesome & the tacos were great. Definitely a must if you find yourself in the area.

ChocoFluff Bunny: Whether it's the big hollow rabbits or the mini-Easter eggs, Palmer chocolates…read moreare some of my favorites. Although they're offered year-round, I tend to associate them with Easter the most. It's difficult to describe what's different about the way Palmer chocolates taste, so you would have to try it yourself. Some people love it & some hate it. You'll find Palmer is surprisingly inexpensive; I've seen single large bunnies & 5 oz mini bunny bags for just over $1. Introduced for Easter 2025 is the ChocoFluff Bunny. It is a chocolate flavored bunny shaped shell that contains a creamy, light, fluffy, and sweet marshmallow crème. The shell is remarkably detailed for a value chocolate. Its thickness varies with some parts being relatively thick and others more fragile. Palmer's creation is teeming with an abundance of marshmallow crème that flows through the entire Bunny as if it were its blood. Like most Easter crème candies, it can be a little messy, but not overly so (just watch it if you are giving it to a small child). At 3.8 oz it's roughly equivalent to four Cadbury Crème Eggs! That also means this bunny is packing a whopping 60g of sugar. Although Cadbury still does it best, Palmer's Chocofluff Bunny is a great budget friendly alternative, and I would even rank it above Russell Stover products, which in my area at least, are now priced above Cadbury.

Most of its facilities are now in West Reading. Until very recently it was best known for the cute chocolate bunnies it produced before Easter, but the product line is more extensive, with cultural references to Sponge Bob SquarePants, and peanut butter cups that some say are superior to the better known Reece's. Sadly, an explosion ripped through one of their plants a few days ago, closing all facilities, and costing seven lives. This small community has been devastated by this tragedy, as you can imagine. The cause of the explosion is under investigation, but the toll in human life and potentially lost jobs is incalculable. I will look for their products and purchase them to help with the survival of Palmer Candy. Hopefully, their Easter inventory will sell out, followed by Halloween and Christmas; providing enough support to allow them to reopen, keep their people employed and grant blessings to the families of lost loved ones.

And the flooring, where it goes from the hard surface to the incline of soft cushion type flooring. That is dangerous, we constantly kept tripping over it. You should have signs there saying watch your step. Because I've noticed other parents tripping over it as well too.
