Green Chimneys Farm and Wildlife Center is an outdoor-focused farm and school that offers free self-guided tours to the public to observe and learn about more than 300 animals. 
You'll meet familiar farm faces like pigs, alpacas, goats and chickens. 
There are also exotic animals like peacocks, camels and even the largest birds that you won't see often. 
After spending time at the farm, warm up with fresh apple cider at Salinger's Orchard.
This family-owned business of more than a century offers baked goods from Brewster and beyond.
From farm-fresh food and road trip snacks to hand-made cards and crafts, you'll find just about anything you need at the market. 
Fourth-generation owner Timothy Salinger says they like to work with local artisans and makers, whether it be cutting boards and candles or local produce from the Hudson Valley
Before hitting the road, you can also pick a Christmas tree to take home with you on this Road Trip: Close to Home in Brewster.
