Old Maryland Farm is a really nice area of Watkins Park. Chickens, pigs, horses, llamas, goats, ducks, donkeys, peacocks and rabbits are all there at the farm. Bring lots of quarters to get feed if you want to feed the birds!

Took our grandkids (ages 3 and 5) to this wonderful old farm in Marlboro in September. We couldn't believe our good fortune! No lines! No parking issues! And the cost was very reasonable since we used a Groupon. The children had all the freedom in the world to run, jump, and play the moment we arrived. We spent about 5 or 6 hours there...no down time. (They didn't want to leave even after that length of time.) There are ample things to do there that don't require purchasing tickets so check those things first - the corn bin, the cow bounce house, the hayrides, the pallet maze, the paddle carts (large and small), the slides, calf roping, old tractors and trucks to climb, etc. Please note that there are two large play areas - the first one is obvious (front and center), the other is less obvious since it's tucked behind the "sheds" housing the pigs, horse, ducks, goats, etc. (We spent $1 for one package of animal feed which was ample.) Large paddle carts are in one area and small paddle carts are in the other. Those things that do require tickets are the giant pumpkin moon bounce, pumpkin chunking, the corn maze, gem mining, and witch decorating. This farm has a giant corn maze great for older kids and adults on one end, and a smaller maze for small children on the other end - a "story book" maze where you looked for/followed pages in the book as you navigated in and out of it. Perfect for our grandkids. There were no actual pumpkins on this farm - not sure if they will be coming in later or if the farm simply decided to plant corn. This was not an issue for us - we were thrilled we didn't need to carry pumpkins around with us. The hayrides are ongoing...one couple with a sleeping child simply stayed on it for multiple rides until their little boy woke up. Our grandkids took several rides as well. This farm sells great jams, jellies and more at very reasonable prices - great for gifts. So spend a little time checking those out. The farm also has a snack shacks where you can buy a hot dog, nachos, etc. Those are fine, but if you can also bring in your own drinks and sandwiches, etc., if you want to save a bit of money. Picnic tables are everywhere - some are under shelters. Anyway, we truly enjoyed a blissful, uncrowded day there. That's rare find in that particular area of the country.
