October is Time to Visit Avila Valley Barn

Tuesday, October 11, 2005

Avila Valley Barn is the place to be in October. The barn and pumpkin fields are packed with visitors this month, choosing just the right pumpkins for Halloween.

But Avila Valley Barn has a new special treat for visitors this year - they just opened their homemade ice cream shop Saturday.

The redwood-sided shop has a cantilevered deck overlooking olallieberry and raspberry fields. More picnic tables were added for patrons who want to relax and enjoy the surroundings.

Visitors can buy candy, caramel apples, pies, coffee and seven homemade ice cream flavors, including pumpkin and raspberry cheesecake swirl.

The shop, at 560 Avila Beach Drive, will be open every day from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The Avila Valley Barn closes the week before Christmas. There are no plans to keep the ice cream shop open year-round, at least not this year. For more information, call the barn at 595-2810 or 595-2810.

Avila Valley Barn has a website coming at www.avilavalleybarn.com
