Sunday, June 30, 2019: A farm was a farm, was a farm, unless it was Shady Brook Farm, 931 Stony Brook Road, Yardley, PA (215-968-1670 or www.shadybrookfarm.com)! This Bucks County farm market and garden center sold a variety of foods in its main building: produce, baked goods, and deli foods, as well as cheeses, snack foods, and especially food in jars—many of them grown and preserved by Shady Brook. They also carried locally made Rose Bank Wine. At the deli, one could buy sandwiches for either take-away or to eat at the upper level dining room. After this, Uncle Dave’s Ice Cream, offered many flavors of their home-made ice cream in cup or cones. When I finished my lunch, I browsed (and sometimes bought) different foods on display as this building contained rows and rows of food. (I’m glad that I ate first before browsing here.) Adjoining this market was a tavern called “The Stone’s Throw.” Once, outside, I also browsed at the many bright-colored flowers at the garden center, and I saw more flowers, plants, and garden decorations in their green house. Other areas outside sold garden equipment, lawn furniture, tool sheds, etc. In addition, they offered a pick-your-own produce from their surrounding fields. Throughout the year, Shady Brook Farm played host to different seasonal events, holidays, and concerts—some of them especially for families. Nevertheless, no matter what time you visit, you will spend a fun time here.
