The working farm, at the corner of Lake and Wagner Roads, is both a historic destination and a playground of educational opportunities for little ones.
The Grove National Historic Landmark took second place, with 14 percent of votes and Glenview Indoor Ice Center and Glenview National 9 Golf Club, both with nine percent of votes, tied for third.
We'll be running reader's choice polls every Monday through Friday so that you can help advise your neighbors on the best places to check out in town — and hopefully learn something new yourself!
It's also an opportunity for people to leave reviews in our seriously extensive business directory and it's designed for you to share recommendations and praise — or warnings and words to the wise — for businesses and services around town.
And no need to wait for a poll to sound off. Got a rant or rave? If you've got something to say about a local business, please look it up in the directory and let fellow readers know what you think.

Historic Wagner Farm is located at Lake Avenue and Wagner Road.
It is NOT a petting zoo. Visitors may view the animals in the barnyard.
There are no ducks or geese.
Thank you.
