Went to pick up a birthday cake for my wifes aunt's 95th birthday. Being from the bland midwest, I was pleasantly surpirsed and pleasedd by the variety of cakes and pastry available. I bought and devoured, over the course of a day, several cinnamon rolls, several sticky buns and two other coffee pastries. They were the best I have had in over a decade.

This is a pick your own apples orchard, but they do have a few pears, and peach trees. They provide you with an apple picker, a bag, and a wagon if you would like. We didn't bring children but I wished we had gotten the wagon because we had a 1/2 bushel bag to carry around and we're retired. They are very friendly and helpful at the shed. Most any questions you may have they would probably know. If your looking for good family fun this is a great place.
9. Casey Farm
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 13 reviews
This mid-eighteenth century homestead overlooking Narragansett Bay was the center of a plantation that produced food for local and foreign markets. Casey Farm was the location for a skirmish with the British that left its mark on the farmhouse. Starting in the mid-nineteenth century, the Casey family began to improve the farm and lease it to tenant farmers. In 1955, they donated their ancestral home to Historic New England. Today, farm managers raise organically grown produce for a Community Supported Agriculture program. A weekly Saturday morning farmers' market from May to October offers products from other local farms and artisans. The site provides a perfect setting for educational programs, including field trips and summer camps. Guided tours between June 1 and October 15 include the farmyard and cemetery, where six generations of Caseys are buried.
