Hershey Farm Gift Shop opens with a boom this year. In the Boutique, our selection is updated weekly, and features the latest fashion trends in clothing, jewelry, and accessories at unbeatable prices. Along with the Boutique, the new addition of our 'Bargain Boutique', located in the back of the General Store, has added a unique collection of fashions all priced at $9.99 and under.

Also for 2010, we have expanded our book and souvenir selection. The Sports Zone still features a variety of NFL and MLB product. The Toy Store still offers unique novelty items, Webkinz, and has added Zhu Zhu pets, and Nintendo DS games at great prices. Currently, we have a variety of Mario games offered at $21.99 that are sold elsewhere for $29.99 -$39.99, along with other DS game titles not offered everywhere. However, supplies are limited and titles offered change frequently.

Our Outdoor Market is anticipating a new look this year. We will continue to feature quality plants at competitive prices, seasonal produce, and a variety of garden accessories.

Stop in and visit us soon! We are a unique stop offering something for everyone. Whether you are treating yourself or someone else, our staff is looking forward to serving you and making your shopping experience enjoyable.

As one of the managers at Hershey Farm, I always appreciate feedback and comments our guests pass along. Here is one we received last week from one of our guests. Thanks for checking in with us! Brett, Manager, The Inn at Hershey Farm

We had a wonderful stay at your Inn. We have been there before and found it just as nice this time as in the past. And, the improvements to the restaurant were wonderful and the breakfast delicious. JoAnn was our waitress and as always, very friendly and gracious. I had a chance to speak with our housekeeper on the morning we left and very much enjoyed talking to her --- not sure of a first name, but I believe she said her last name was Lapp. We are looking forward to our next visit!

After 7 weeks of hard work, snow storms and only being open weekends in our Gardenview Dining Room, it is now business as usual at Hershey Farm.

We reopened our doors and our brand new buffet area on Saturday, February 20th. Following the weekend, we invited guests to come see our newly remodeled restaurant and enjoy our buffet for only $5.00 per person.

The grand reopening was a huge success. The $5.00 buffet brought numerous people to our restaurant. Some came every day!! A guest from the Washington DC area heard about our offer and called inquiring about the buffet and the special offer.

Our guests were curious to see the new and exciting changes that we had been talking about for months. The new food room has no resemblance to the old one. We removed some seating in order to add additional food bars and improve the movement through the food room and decrease the lines.

We continue to serve 3 homemade soups but have added chili and a baked potato bar to our soup and salad bar. We added a grill station which offers a variety of dishes that are made especially for each guest with ingredients that they choose. Some of the selections include omelets and eggs made to order at breakfast. Chicken or beef fajitas, cheese steaks, Italian sausage sandwiches, chicken alfredo, hamburger sliders and stir fry just to name a few.

When it comes to dessert, there were many additions as well. We now offer soft serve ice cream with various toppings, pudding parfaits and jello. We continue to serve our signature whoopie pies and chocolate cake. We are very excited about the addition of a beautiful chocolate fountain that graces the dessert bar at dinner time and weekends. There are amazing soft pretzels as well for those people who like salty along with their sweet.

We had a continuous flow of guests who visited us during the week of the $5.00 special offer. Even when the wait to be seated exceeded 2 ½ hours, guests continued to wait patiently in order to try our new buffet. Each day we served over 1,000 people. An outstanding outcome for our reopening special.

With that said, if you have not experienced the new buffet we invite you to stop in and see us. If you visited us during our Grand reopening special, thank you for helping to make that week a wonderful success for us. Your business is greatly appreciated here at Hershey Farm. Come back and visit us again soon!

When you think of an oatmeal raisin cookie you may think 'yum', or 'sweet and chewy', or you may even think the words 'old fashioned'. Whatever you currently think when it comes to oatmeal raisin cookies, after trying one from the Bakery at Hershey Farm, you wont want to try any others.
Full of juicy raisins and chewy oatmeal these cookies have a sweet and spicy base. Perfect to enjoy as a dessert, a snack, or even (on a rushed morning) breakfast.

The Bakery at Hershey Farm bakes my favorite buyable chocolate chip cookie (and I'm not just saying that because I work here).
Though 8 cookies come in a package, they don't last long. To sum up what makes these cookies the best I will share my best friend's reaction after I offered her one, 'Mmmmm Chocolate'. Each cookie is baked with a blend of chocolate chips, chunks, and bits which melt together in your mouth with enough flavor to satisfy any chocolate craving.
My boyfriend enjoys them with ice cream (I recommend chocolate, he recommends vanilla), I enjoy them slightly warm, and you can enjoy delicious Hershey Farm Chocolate Chip Cookies anytime anywhere. The Bakery at Hershey Farm will ship them right to your door. Visit Hershey Farm's Online Bakery to get yours today!
