HOWARD COUNTY, MD — If you're having a rough day or just need a hug, pop by Mary's Land Farm in Ellicott City for a cow cuddling encounter. Coined the Krispie Crew, calves Snap, Crackle and Pop are close to a month old and will jump, play, run and lay on your lap. Cuddling is believed to reduce stress by boosting oxytocin in humans, the hormone released through social bonding. In 45-minute sessions with the cattle, guests can brush, feed, cuddle and connect with these cute critters. Before or after a session with the calves, visitors can explore the 160-acre property that's home to free-range chickens, ducks and a full herd of cattle along with horses, pigs, goats and emu. Children younger than age 14 must be accompanied by an adult. To schedule a visit with a calf at Mary's Land Farm, visit https://www.maryslandfarm.com/...
