[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Homestead farm is so much better for picking apples and seeing animals! Butlers is all about the festival.

Homestead has a great layout so that the orchards are near the entrance and the animals are spread out. Even on the weekends when it’s crowded, it doesn’t get claustrophobic the way Butlers does. There are hand washing stations near the animals and a big goat structure that’s fun for the kids to see. They sell food for the animals in ice cream cones and it’s much more fun to feed animals at Homestead than butlers. (There are fewer animals at Butlers and the food is in those little vending machines, so you have remember to bring quarters or you can’t do it.)

At Homestead the orchards are right next to a huge covered picnic area and there are even hay rides throughout the farm. It’s $2/per person for a very pleasant farm experience.. At Butlers it costs $12/per person and you’re paying for the slides, games, etc, the festival isn’t even at the same spot as the apple picking so you’d have to drive (or walk really really far) if you wanted to pick apples that day.

We've been to both plenty of times. Butler's costs more because they have that huge festival. If you don't care about that, go to Homestead. It really isn't complicated. [/quote]
