We saw this event on Facebook events and thought it would be a fun thing to do during a week that wasn’t very busy for us. Flinchbaugh’s Orchard & Farm Market is near Hellam, PA – about 45 minutes from our house.

The Clydesdales were under this large tent.

The dalmatians were in the first pen – if you came in from the starting area. This one was excited because one of the staff was bringing Majestic to his next-door pen.

There was no way to determine which dog was Natty or which was Lou Lou.

The second dog was in the pen (right).

Majestic being brought into his pen.

According to these signs, Majestic was the largest horse at Flinchbaugh’s. For that reason, I am supposing it is a male. He is a wheel horse – notice the highlighted horses – the position of a wheel horse.

Because Tim and Tom have the same birthdates, I suppose they may be twins, but I have no way of knowing for sure.

We saw three of these rigs, plus various other vehicles that were part of the travel entourage.

Flinchbaugh’s have a very neat, well cared for orchard.

A place for taking photos. Notice the background, someone was taking two of the Clydesdales for a walk.

We chose to share a cheeseburger and fries for lunch, then each had ice cream for dessert.

There were a variety of games and activities for children – and adults – including wagon rides and this strawbale maze.

Before going home, we went inside the market. I was hungry for fresh cucumber salad – and found the cucumber and onion I needed.

Before leaving for home, I went back to see the horses – especially the two that were being groomed.

They are certainly beautiful animals.
