Gillis Hill Farm
The Gillis Family generously opens their
working family farm to the public during their
agritourism season which typically runs from
April 1 through October or November. A
reasonably priced ticket to the farm allows
visitors to walk the property, see and feed just
about every type of farm animal you could
hope to encounter, and partake in multiple
play areas. In the fall, the farm offers fun tours
in a tractor-pulled wagon. Farm frequenters
know that it's pretty much a sin to leave the
farm without stopping by the ice cream shop
for a cone of their homemade, seasonally
flavored good stuff. 2701 Gillis Hill Rd., 910 -
867-2350, www.gillishillfarm.com
