Sometimes you just want to run away from the stress of work and find a quiet town where you can relax for a day. While most of Delaware’s towns fit that description, there’s one in particular that makes for a peaceful day trip getaway.
Wyoming, Delaware is a tiny farming community with just about 1,500 residents.

Your first stop in Wyoming should be Fifer Orchards.
Facebook / Fifer Orchards This famous family-run orchard is home to a U-Pick farm and a country store that’s always stocked with fresh food and baked goods.
This time of year, stop by for apple cider and fresh donuts, candy apples, pumpkin pie, and more.

Next, head over to the historic Brecknock Park.

The stunning Piccadilly Castle is one of the best playgrounds you’ll ever find.

For lunch, you can’t beat Sal’s Pizza for the best slice in town.

Order a tasty New York style pie, or some of their crispy wings.

A quick getaway to this hidden Delaware farm town is sure to be the best thing you do this fall.
