100 acres of land was purchased by a coal broker named William L. Conyngham back when coal was in it's heyday in this area. He bought this land and hosted many events for society's elite. It was once the home of award-winning Clydesdale and Belgian Draft Horses as well as the best cattle available such as Holstein's.There are many events planned here for the kids and the rest of the family. One of the events coming up soon is what they call, "Movies on the Lawn". You bring your own seating or blankets and enjoy a free movie out under the stars. This is a great event for the whole family and starts at sunset. Refreshments are available for purchase. There are many other events planned so if interested in what they have to offer call 570-696-2881.
The real reason I've included this dairy on my site is because of the great dairy products available here. Their milk is what I consider the best in the area as well as the ice cream. They serve ice cream in cones, by the cup, sundaes, or ice cream to go. If you buy ice cream from the ice cream bar you can either sit inside the air conditioned store and enjoy it or go outside and sit under a huge tree where there are tables and chairs. I prefer to walk around and enjoy some of the scenery which are in the photos here.
This place is located at 65 Hillside Road in Shavertown, Pa. Take Route 309 (Cross Valley Expressway) towards Dallas, Pa. and make a left at the first light you come to and it is about 1 mile on the right. This place is worth the drive.
For more information call 570-696-4500.
