Buffalo does a wondrous job of creating fantastic outdoor spaces within our city limits that almost make us forget the fact that we’re living in an urban space. That said, there are limits to how much wide open space you’ll manage to find within a city, so you won’t exactly find any farms hiding in the heart of town – but that doesn’t mean we’re stuck merely dreaming of escaping to the countryside. In fact, there’s a lovely little fruit farm that’s a surprisingly short drive from Buffalo, and they bake up some of the best homemade pies you’ll ever taste. Check it out:
Just 30 minutes north of Buffalo, you’ll find the village of Youngstown.
