Redbook: Unplugged Vacation at Stony Creek Farm

Tuesday, July 20, 2010

Redbook's Marisa Cohen was concerned that her family had replaced conversation with Facebook, DS, and video games. So, she decided to take them on a 3-day weekend stay at Stony Creek Farm, an organic farm stay 3 hours from New York City. Stony Creek Farm is part of Feather Down Farm Days, a company that started in Holland and now has 3 member farms in the U.S., which all boast plush canvas platform tents with fluffy duvets and composting toilets. Success! Cohen's daughter Molly declared the farm awesome and asked if they could live there.
