Celebrate the history of Glen Foerd on the Delaware’s cattle and crop farm at the First Annual Glen Foerd Farm Fest. Meet and greet real cows and learn about farm animals at various learning stations. Spend time on the beautiful 18-acre Delaware River estate while enjoying live music, craft show and a farmer’s market. There will even be a pie eating and “kiss the cow” contest. Children will enjoy fun activities throughout the day.

Glen Foerd Farm, which was located on the Bucks County side of the Poquessing Creek, was established in 1919. The farm was nationally recognized for the exceptional quality of its Ayrshire cattle, winning numerous milk output awards. The farm’s motto was “Six World’s Records in Six Years”. The farm also had an extensive crop farm operation, which supplied produce for the residents and servants of the grand riverfront estate.

Glen Foerd on the Delaware is the last remaining riverfront estate in Philadelphia open to the public. Its mission is to connect visitors to the legacy of the estate through programs in the arts, nature and history.
