Riverdale Farm


Looking for somewhere to take the kids that won't break the bank? I used to take my kids to the Riverdale Farm all the time. It's often one of those places that is forgotten but its such a lovely place. Small children will love it and if the older children aren't having as much fun as the younger generation then there is also a park right beside the farm with a wading pool. Parking is free and there is a little cafe on the corner where you can stop in and have lunch. Better yet...pack a picnic and eat in the park! Visit Riverdale Farm for more info.

Enjoy!
