We are only open Sept. through December 24. Alpacas, Angora goats, and Free Range Chickens roam the farm in harmony. As a family, we raise these animals for their fiber ( and their delicious eggs). We breed the alpacas and sell them. The fiber gets processed and sold as well. The farm store is full of warm and soft alpaca fiber products. Quite a few of these products are handmade right here on the farm.

Today my family and I went here for the first time and we all had a GREAT time. We played the mini golf and it was very fun and challenging. The course was very big and nicely landscaped with water features and a mountain spring running through the center. Then we ate on the deck and all enjoyed our meals. This was our first time there but we will definitely go back again. I suggest if you are looking for a nice day in Manheim, Pa. You should definitely plan to stop in and play golf and eat there. They have a large selection of ice cream which is a nice treat on a hot day.

My husband and I visit Lancaster several times a year with our children and whenever we're driving we see road-side signs for wine tastings. We were never able to attend one because we holiday with our children. For his birthday, I planned a birthday getaway for my husband and made a reservation at Waltz after seeing their lovely website and video. I made a reservation for a Saturday morning wine tasting. The lady who took my reservation was very polite and knowledgeable. The entire experience was perfect from start to finish. The gentlemen who attended to us that day was very knowledgeable about the vineyard, it's history & the wines. He told us his name but I can't remember it! Maybe it was Pete? He was a little on the older side and super sweet, The wine tasting experience itself was delicious & refreshing. Their wines were fantastic and we left we purchased about 6 bottles. The cheese & chocolates were very good. We also enjoyed the quick tour of their wine room. The room in which we sat and tasted the wine had a great rustic feel I loved and the view outside was perfect. I hope we can come back a couple of time a year from now on. It was just my favorite thing we did that weekend. Love this vineyard!
9. Root's Country Market & Auction

Roots Country Market and Auction was fabulous. A ton of fun. A superlative experience. A slice of Americana. For someone more accustomed to city living, it was mind-boggling. The entire day was unusual, fascinating, and downright interesting. Auctions of produce by the case or bag. A case of cabbages or grapes for $3! A bag of 8 pounds of Granny Smith apples for 50 cents! Sixty avocados in a box for $10! Who could pass them up? Besides produce, boxes of cereal, barrels of pretzels, Lance crackers, and even toilet paper were auctioned. People were buying for personal use or the community. Someone bought boxes and boxes of cereals because she had kids. Another drove from Maryland to buy huge quantities because she ran a homeless shelter. An Amish gentleman looked as if he was buying not only for himself but his neighbors. The customers sitting on assorted plastic and metal chairs in a drafty barn bought and bought at rock-bottom prices. Another auction took place earlier in the morning at a different building. Here, there were tables after tables of garage sale items such as old lamps, books, crockery, vases, clocks, dolls, and Christmas decorations. Old junk from Grandma’s attic were in full display. Individual items could be tendered but the unsold residual on the table could be had for a song. Customers swept up the sales in delight. As the adage went, “One man’s trash was another man’s treasure.” Used cars including a Mercedes were also sold. Detailed information taped on the cars. Various folks poked around. Some were serious buyers while others were just curious. Buyers and sellers were salt of the earth. Intense individuals in pursuit of getting good values for their hard-earned money. No ties or buttoned-down shirts or suits. Many farmers, the Amish, Mennonites, and tourists mingled easily. Knowledgeable and experienced, the majority knew what they were doing. The auctioneers impressed. They were professionals and understood their trade. Their speech was fast as they called out the merchandise and prices. Half the time, I could not understand. To bid, one had to stay alert and listen carefully. Besides the auctions, there were numerous tables of retail fruits and vegetables sold outside the buildings. Again, a case of 25 pounds of Chiquita bananas for only $10! No bidding, just plain selling. Strawberries, blueberries, egg plants, lettuces, cucumbers, tomatoes, and spinach. You name it, they had it. Another display of entrepreneurship at a different building where vendors displayed delicious foods. Breads, shoofly pies, cream puffs, and sticky buns begged to be bought. Ropes of sausages, bologna, and salami enticed. Fresh meats from hams to hocks lured. Bottles of honey, jams, and pickled beets gleamed. It took discipline not to buy everything because everything was tempting. Enterprising business men sold old hammers, bolts, screwdrivers, duct tape, batteries, records, and CDs. One person drove from Ohio to do a wholesale delivery in the area and as a sideline, set up a table of hardware. Another fellow sold boxes of gloves, hats, umbrellas, and a hundred and one items for the household from his truck. All the cupboard boxes were lined up and set on the ground. One wove in and out to select the wares. Parking was ample and free. Many pot holes in the parking areas. This was not your modern day slick shopping mall but more of a rough and tumble place. Totally wholesome and safe. What a day. What an experience. What a heart-warming encounter. I am so glad I went. Come hell or high water, I shall be back in 2020 with abundant money and empty bags to bid and buy. As The Terminator said, “Hasta la vista, I shall be back!”
