Hollabaugh Bros Fruit and Vegetable Farm in Biglerville

We enjoy taking road trips all around the great state of Pennsylvania. When we're on a road trip we like to get off the main highways and explore the back roads in the country. One thing that we really enjoy seeing is old barns located throughout the state. Not only the barns that are located on the farms...but the art that is on the walls of that barn! Hello barn art!

While traveling through Biglerville in Pennsylvania we came across the Hollabaugh Bros Fruit and Vegetable Farm. Check out their beautiful red barn and the wall mural on the side of it. The fruit and vegetable farm has been in operation since 1955. 

As you drive along the back roads in that area you'll see all kinds of farm land and fruit orchards. We could see the fruit trees, grapevines, vegetable gardens, corn fields, etc. that surround that barn and go on for several miles. Since we love seeing old barns and the barn art...we had to grab a quick photograph of this one.Nice!!! 

A Visit to Columcille Megalith Park in Bangor

Looking to get out into nature? Enjoy peace and serenity? If so, you'll want to visit Columcille Megalith Park in Bangor, Pennsylvania. This is a privately owned park that is open to the public from dawn to dusk. You'll find it located at 2155 Fox Gap Road in Bangor. The park is free to visit. 

What you should know before going:

* Dogs are permitted as long as they're leashed.
* Wear comfortable walking shoes.
* Dress appropriately for the weather.
* Bring along bug spray and sunscreen.
* Bring along a water bottle.
* Photography is permitted for personal use ONLY. 

You'll want to vist the Columcille Megalith Park's website before you go. You'll find driving directions, a park map, guidelines for visiting the park, a schedule of events and more. 

All of the trails are unpaved and uneven. Be prepared to do a lot of walking! You want to stay on the trails as much as possible. You're not permitted to climb onto the rocks, fly drones, leave trash/garbage behind and noise is kept at the minimum. No smoking within the park. This park is for reflection, quiet, praying, etc. 

The park is situated on more than 20 acres with 90 stone settings strategically placed throughout the park. The backdrop to the park is the beautiful forest of trees, vernal ponds and sheltered dells. We visited during the late fall and the trees had already lost the majority of their foliage. The next time we visit I would love to come when the foliage is at it's full peak. I bet it's beautiful. 

Skyy Lane Resource Center at the park is also the visitor's welcome center. Inside you'll find various resources on the history of the park, crystals, rocks and other items are available to visitors for a donation. It's located in the lower level of the house by the pond. It's open during regular park hours. 

We were up in the Pocono Mountains for the weekend and visited Columcille Megalith Park while we were there. We had never heard of it until another guest at the resort where we were staying had mentioned it. I'm so glad that we took the time to visit. Going to be in the Poconos area and looking for something to do? We highly recommend that you visit Columcille Megalith Park.
