Barakah Heritage Farm, Pennsylvania

Most of our guests come to meet the only Jilfan Sitam Malabar black Arabian horses in the world (think Black Stallion) and other heritage livestock. We encourage guests to find Barakah Heritage Farm on popular social media to the current seasonal farm activities, such as gathering firewood, building fences, logging, picking fruit, collecting nuts and more.  This is a working farm in a rural setting, so please expect the sounds, smells and critters of country farm life. Spring peepers, crickets, cicadas, roosters crowing, horses and goats calling a greeting, and local wildlife hooting or barking are all sounds to expect. Depending on the season and local farm activities, you may smell freshly turned earth, compost, mowed grass or other farm odors. You may smell wood smoke. There are bugs on a working farm too. We are an organic operation, so there will be lady bugs, flies, ants, honey bees, spiders and other insects in the yard (and yes, they may occasionally follow you inside. If that occurs, simply text us and our staff will promptly remove them). The livestock and property are guarded by working Great Pyrenees. Their job is to scare away dangerous animals by barking, and then physically removing them if necessary. There may be dog barking during the night or early in the morning. We allow and encourage this, because that is part of their job. Never experienced a farm before? Please ask us for details. Bring a pair of boots and clothes that can get dirty if you plan to join us with the animals and farm activities.
