spRiNg iN souTHeRN DeLaWaRe georgetown, Rich With Treasures Take a walking tour of this historic county seat, including its 1790s Old Sussex County Courthouse and meticulously restored 1860s train station. Then, spend an hour with local hidden gems: the Marvel Carriage Museum , Delaware Aviation Museum , and Treasures of the Sea , featuring gold bars, jewelry, cannons, and more recovered from a 17th-century Spanish shipwreck. Or get away from it all in Redden State Forest , the state’s largest forest, for hiking, biking, horseback riding, and camping. GEORGETOWN BRIDGEVILLE Local is Best in Bridgeville Who doesn’t love a farmers market? T.S. Smith Orchard Point Market is a cut above, with a bounty of local produce, jarred preserves, and mouthwatering baked goods. Stop in the deli for made-to-order lunch — if you can pull the kids away from the goats, turkeys, and chickens at the market’s petting zoo. Up the road, pick your own fruit at Bennett Orchards or visit Evans Farms Produce , home to the Frozen Farmer ice cream line seen on ABC’s “Shark Tank.” Bennett orchards ©Pamela Aquilani 34
