Local Appreciation Weekend

October 25 + 26, 2025

11 am - 5 pm

Lenny Bruno Farms invites you to Brookhaven Local Appreciation Weekend, a two-day celebration of farming, community, and family fun! Join us at 740 Wading River Road, Manorville, NY, for an unforgettable experience packed with entertainment, local vendors, and interactive activities for all ages.

Enjoy reduced admission of just $10 per person, with free entry for children 2 and under. As a special thank you, first responders and active or retired military personnel receive complimentary admission all weekend long.

Explore a vibrant vendor market, live music, jumbo garden games, food trucks, and children’s activity vendors featuring face painting, pony rides, fairy hair, henna, and more. Stroll through the u-pick sunflower fields ($1 per stem), grab farm-fresh produce, and sip on local brews and wines. Don’t miss the chance to see fire trucks and emergency vehicles from the Manorville Fire Department and Ambulance Company, and meet local officials during special community meet-and-greet sessions.

For a deeper dive into farm life, hop on a scenic hayride tour with farm owner Dominic Bruno to learn how your favorite vegetables are grown ($5 additional fee).

This special weekend is more than just an event—it’s a tribute to community spirit, local agriculture, and the people who make Brookhaven an incredible place to live and grow!

*Food trucks and artisan vendors charge their own fees for purchases of products. Most vendors take cash and charge.

“If you are looking for a truly educational experience for yourself and your kids, while having fun, Lenny Bruno Farms is the place to go! Our family has a blast at all their events!”
