Grand Opening Harvest Festival

The FARM’s grand opening Harvest Festival starts at 11 a.m. and runs through 6 p.m.  This is a family-friendly event that will connect the community and introduces you to this 8th generation family farm!  Join us for an afternoon & evening of fall fun.  As we continue to plan this event, we’ll be adding more information about the activities on our website and social media channels – stay connected!

Admission is free for children 2 & under.  All others require an admission ticket.  Advanced Admission starts at $5 per person.  Day-of-admission is $10 per person.  We highly encourage advanced ticket purchases because The FARM is a small, family farm with limited parking.  We cannot guarantee admission without an advanced ticket.
