It was called "Cow Hampshire" in the early part of the 20th century since it was claimed there were "More cows than people."
A claim that was contested by Vermont - but the reverse claim was that Vermont was (then) still too heavily forested to have the number of cow that New Hampshire has.
And the reverse claim that Vermont Maple Syrup is superior to New Hampshire, Maine, New York, Canadian maple syrup (fill in the blank.)
One curious fact was that in Vermont, Maple syrup production is still a pretty "small farm" product. The total state gallonage of maple syrup divided by the total number of producers is an average producer output of only 91 gallons. Well, then...
As to "farm entertainment" - ANYTHING is possible. I don't expect that has changed...
