North East, MD Exit 100: Wow, Fairwinds Farm, a B&B where you can go horseback riding! This farm family takes in travelers, be they the human kind or the animal kind (horses, dogs, etc).
JoAnn Dawson, the “farmers’ wife”, was written up in the NY Times, Baltimore Sun and was on Good Morning America for her role as a wrangler in Oprah Winfrey’s “Beloved” film, and was in “The Sixth Sense”. JoAnn writes the “Lucky Foot Stable” books, perfect for kids in the car; stop and get one autographed.
Enjoy a walk in the fields, visit with Jeepers the goat, gather your own eggs for breakfast in the hen house or just watch the horses graze. Ask about riding lessons, horse-drawn carriages, hay rides and pony rides. Same day B&B reservations are possible.
