Tuesday, May 20, 2025: When I read that Johnson’s Corner Farm, 133 Church Road, Medford, New Jersey (609-654-8643), has been listed as a major attraction in Burlington County, I decided to visit and see for myself. Anyway, I’ve liked visiting farm markets, regardless of whether they were a major attraction or not. At this farm, I could see why: There was something of interest for the whole family! Among the offerings were hayrides to the fields that the family could take to pick the latest crop in season together for the price of a ticket. (If nothing else, children could learn that food doesn’t start at the supermarket.) Another ticket included a chance to feed and pet farm animals; plus, children could be active in the Discovery Barnyard playground where they could pretend to be farmers. For adults without children along, there has been a sizable farm market that sold both edible and non-edible merchandise: produce, jarred foods-both sweet & savory, and baked goods, as well as sandwiches, salads, entrees for dinner, ice cream, candy, etc. In addition, the non-edible items included tableware, decorative stuff for the kitchen, flowers, and so forth. If the weather was good, visitors could eat what food they purchased inside at the picnic tables outside. Throughout the year, Johnson Corner Farm played host to different seasonable events.
