1. MERCER HOUSE ESTATE WINERY

One of the only 10 organic wineries in the U.S., Mercer House Estate Winery boasts a lovely 12-acre estate full of wildlife, flowers, greenery and, of course, vineyards. It’s a perfect place to relax and unwind as you meander through the gardens while sipping one of their unique wines.

You can take a tour of the vineyards and enjoy a tasting with the Vine and Wine Tours, or drop in for a fun Friday evening of wine slushies and hiking on the one-mile hiking trail. Complete with a lush garden full of fresh, decadent fruits—like blueberries, strawberries, peaches, plums, figs, pears, kiwis, apples, pomegranates, cherries, nectarines, and pecans—the estate has something for everyone.

You’re even welcome to bring your pets as you trek the fitness trail! After your visit, stop by the store to purchase some wine to enjoy at home.

2. BELA FAMILY DENTISTRY OF WHITE KNOLL

Do you crave an enjoyable dental experience? Make a visit to Bela Family Dentistry of White Knoll! Everything about this office sparkles with southern charm—from the traditional architecture of the building to its warm and modern interior, and the skilled team that provides comprehensive dental services. It should probably be listed on TripAdvisor as a dental tourism destination!

Bela Family Dentistry of White Knoll offers early hours starting at 7 AM to accommodate your busy schedule or if you just want to get your dental treatment early to have more time to explore all of the interesting things this county has to offer.

3. LEXINGTON COUNTY MUSEUM

Lexington County Museum is home to more than 30 historic structures and artifacts that give visitors an opportunity to travel back in time to the colonial period. The museum offers guided tours, self-guided tours, and group programs. It also hosts special events. The “Hands on History” programs give school-aged children the chance to learn about life in colonial times. With so much to do here, it’s no wonder this historical site is a Red Bank favorite.

4. FARMER’S MARKET

Have you ever noticed how homegrown fruits just seem more tasty and bright? There’s something so satisfying about biting into those sweet, fragrant strawberries from the Farmer’s Market.

Lexington’s Farmer’s Market is open every Saturday from June to September. Come support local farmers and get the best produce, meats, and homemade treats.

In this age of online grocery ordering, car-side pick-up and ultra convenience, it’s nice to take your time on a calm, balmy day to truly appreciate wholesome, homegrown goods, and maybe even get to know the friendly farmers behind them. There’s something special about seeing the smiles of the people who lovingly grew the food you’re about to eat. And with the surrounding vibrant colors of the produce and the sweet aroma of fruits and flowers, you have a pleasant way not only to connect with the community but also to reconnect with nature.

If you’re visiting during the months the Farmer’s Market is open, take a stroll to pick up some locally grown goodies and enjoy a nice picnic lunch.

5. VIRGINIA HYLTON PARK

Virginia Hylton Park, located in the heart of downtown Lexington, provides a quiet oasis in the midst of a busy city. Make a trip just to visit the park, or step into the calmness after exploring the sites of downtown. It’s a perfect destination for people of all ages.

Paved walkways lined with tall trees provide a canopy of shade that’s perfect for a sunny day walk. This is also the kind of place where you can sink into a great book or take the kids to play. It offers a playground (with horseshoes!) for kids and covered gazebos and tables for a picnic lunch. Of course, there are restrooms, too, so you can easily wash up and refresh yourself. In the warmer months, you can enjoy live music from local musicians.

There’s so much more, so when you’re ready for your second round of Lexington County exploration, visit Bela Family Dentistry of White Knoll and our team will make recommendations for things to do, see, and eat! Hey, you may even decide to stay awhile and get that dental treatment you’ve been wanting.
