October Harvest Festival

Enjoy our Barnyard Adventure playground.  There's lots of room for the kids to run and activities that ignite their imagination - playhouses, tricycle track, sandbox, and more...  Just the right size for the little ones

Our farm animals love visitors especially when they bring treats.   Food for them is available in our market and at admission.  We also offer you an opportunity to learn with all of our great farm animal fact boards.

New this fall - Check out our Paddock Playground full of activities that are a bit more challenging and active for the not so littles and the young at heart.

Bee Fit on the Farm - Enjoy a journey along our farm's trails with workouts at stations posted along the way.  Engage your senses as you take in the nature surrounding you.  Your goal - come away refreshed and energized!

Enjoy mazes? Get lost in our corn maze where all you see is corn and sky.  Don't panic, your kids will help get you out.  Check out our Lost and Found cedar maze in our Barnyard Adventure Playground.  You can't measure it in acres but challenges can come in small packages.

Our play train has been a landmark structure for over 30 years.  At least two generations of kids have traveled far in their imaginations on this train.  What child doesn't want to get behind the wheel of a tractor?  Both make a good backdrop for group pictures.

Scavenger Hunts - A fun and interesting way to explore the farm.  We have a variety of choices for all ages for you to choose from.

Tranquility Trail - Get out and stretch your legs. Enjoy an extended walk around our farm's fields taking in the beauty of the surrounding Durham region countryside.   The trail takes approximately 45 minutes to walk.  Suitable for ages 6 plus.  The terrain is uneven so good walking shoes or boots are necessary.  Wear clothing that is appropriate for the weather.  Long sleeves and pants are highly recommended for protection against ticks.

Visit our Imagination Station - We have a selection of crafts for the kids to do in a nice warm room.  It's a good chance to get out of the weather, relax and be creative!  There's even an easy craft for the wee ones to do.

Special Guests - Join us Thanksgiving Monday, October 19th and 2oth and October 27th for extra special guests that will enhance your visit.

Wagon rides are happening on weekends between 10 and 4 weather permitting.  The last ride out can be as late as 4:00 but come early so you won't miss it.  See the farm from a different perspective.  The view is beautiful, and the air is fresh.

Dress for the weather - wear boots if there has been a recent rain.  We are also cooler and windier here on the farm so come prepared with warm jackets and hats to keep warm.
