Eckert's Fun Farm - Garbage Horror Haunted House Review 2015
We've done a lot of haunted attractions here at Garbage Horror. We've made over a hundred visits to dozens of haunts in five different states.
However, neither of us had done a haunted hay ride before...
We decided to rectify that.
So while in the St. Louis area we made the trip to Eckert's Fun Farm in Millstadt, IL to try out their famous haunted hay ride (which didn't actually involve any hay).
So was it worth the trip or was it as boring a pile of hay, we give our full take on it here.

Eckerts recently turned 100, and in that time has grown from a roadside produce stand to a orchard, farm, garden shop and country store. The seventh generation of Eckerts are now running the family business, which has grown into one of the largest pick your own orchards in the United States, offering peaches, apples, strawberries and pumpkins.

Family fun at Eckerts Part II
SUBSCRIBE SUBSCRIBE Oct 2015. I grew up going to Eckerts to pick peaches, apples & pumpkins and I still love it as an adult... We had a great time, picking apples & pumpkins and getting some good food on a perfect day...
I picked 12 large apples and spent $12.97. Worth every dime. Sweet and very firm.

Avalon Trail with James
Second time solo on this trail at Avalon Horse Farms in Millstadt, IL. It's a little hidden gem to me. I love riding this trail with my boy. Just enough challenges for him and me. Just missing a creek!
He is getting confident enough to trot and even canter on this trail. Barely any spooking this time around. We encountered deer three times, dog barking, and then actual dogs coming up to check us out. Cars passing on the road. James was completely sound minded through it all. Proud horse mom right here :)
Pig Racing - baby pigs exploited at the San Diego County Fair
Filmed on July 5, 2015 at San Diego County Fair
This vendor had many types of pigs that he exploited for profit. Most all of them are babies that are forced to participate in stupid tricks. Many vendors of this type withhold food and/or water to force the animals to perform.
This is considered family fun entertainment. Putting a pig nose on a little girl just desensitizes all the young children to the fact that these are living, breathing creatures that feel happiness and pain, have families and friends that they are bonded to but are used as commodities until they outlive their usefuleness.
