Greater Ridgewood Historical Society

If you love the city and don't like the big farm experience, kid friendly, safe, environment for kids then this is the place. The staff was all smiles and very helpful with my toddler and my family. They decorated beautifully for pictures with Santa. Speaking of Santa great guy, he came outside so my mom can get a picture with my son. Unfortunately if you weren't vaccinated you couldn't enter the building partner which is understandable and I appreciate the safty percussion they too to make it a safe place and clean for all of us. After pictures with Santa you walk out to a small farm where the kids rolled down the hill and got to pick cute xmas cookes, apple sider (warm or cold) and hot chocolate. Then they gave some of the kids an ornament to put on the Christmas tree the have on the farm, I loved that idea the most brought me to tears. Coming from a Polish house hold, Xmas is very important to us for its meaning. So it was like all the kids were the farm family, supper cute and hear warming. They have a couple trees of apples and other fruit so got to show my niece and son. We got to pick a few I asked if I need to pay a fee, but (I think if you don't go nuts) they said they said it was fine. I really recommend this place to spend the day and explore a little and learn about the history of the town.

We were able to hold and celebrate our ceremony and reception here. We had the best time and so did our families. This space is beautiful and historic and so spacious and inviting. I couldn't imagine a better place for our venue.

I had absolutely no idea this eighteenth century Dutch farmhouse existed and literally stumbled on it while out for a rambling walk. It's fully outfitted with fascinating historical details of old NYC, the backyard garden is beautiful, and there's even a resident cat named Mr. Grey to hang out with. Mini gift shop has fun little items for kids.

Learn about the historic past on NYC, quaint little place, once a year they have a huge party in their back yard.

Visited here for a fall harvest it was ok paid $5 to enter kids were free. The best thing there was the bouncy house and pumpkin patch. The 4 games were ok basically corn hole games and knocking over the tin cans. The face painting was a nightmare the lady had no idea what she was doing it was so bad. Others then that all staff was very nice. I don't plan on going back again.

Well-preserved historical farm house dating back to the earliest days of Dutch setters in Long Island. The 20 min tour is informative and includes the basement and gardens. Check the website for special Halloween and Holiday events.

We brought the kids to meet Santa and we enjoy the fine cool afternoon with the family. Very nice and feels good to be connected with the nature.

We held a company picnic and the manager was rude and nasty to us at the close. She actually said that she should not take non profits anymore and only weddings because that is their cash cow.
