Welcome to Windmill Acres Farm

We're still planting ... come back soon !


 


September 2008 will begin our 15th season of hayrides. The tractor drawn wagon will take you on a 20 minute, narrated tour of the wooded area of our farm.  Your tour guide, Walt, will take you back in time as he guides you through what was once an old rock quarry where peanut stone was once mined and used to build many of the area homes as well as the newly restored Peanut Stone Bridge in Atlantic Highlands.


Native holly, mountain laurel and other native shrubs, trees and wild flowers are among the natural beauty of the land.  The wooded area is a haven for all kinds of birds, butterflies and wild life.  If you're real quiet (su...sh) you may even see some of the many deer, rabbit and red or gray fox that inhabit the area.

 

At the end of the hayride (in season) you will be able to purchase a pumpkin to take home with you.  Cornstalks, gourds, hay bales and other fall decorations are also available for purchase.


We also have field-grown mums, fall perennials, shrubs and flowering kale and cabbage.

The wagon rides will be available from 10:00am until dusk on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.  Weekday and group rides are available by pre-arranged appointment only.  There is also a beautiful, serene area available for your group to enjoy a picnic surrounded by pure, natural beauty!
