Letter Received
"Greetings Crede and Mike!
Just wanted to thank you both again for the fantastic time that my family
had at the "Friday on the Farm" (August 22) outing. Benjamin
still talks about the farm and often asks me "When can we go back
to the farm?" He also tells me how much he loves Indigo!! A great
time was had by all!! Thanks again for everything.
Sincerely,
Debbie Weinberger.

Available Programs feature several activities that all ages will find educational and fun. Let the stress melt away 'down-on-the-farm'. Also available as a custom program for groups and bus tours.

Tour the back 40 on a haywagon accompanied by a guide. Learn about the
history of the farm and the local plants and animals. Some information
about the old farming ways of the area is shared.
Visit with
the Animals
Learn about and see ancient breeds of Jacob's Sheep and Dexter Cattle.
Also pet and feed baby goats, learn about and see lamas, and take a peek
in the 1880's barn.
We'd like to welcome Sadie our new baby lama born 2003.
Enjoy a Cozy
Campfire
The farm program ends with a campfir. Kick back
and relax around a crackling fire to the sounds of crickets and the peaceful
country. Kids will love pokin around in the woods and chasing frogs
by the pond. Bring a picnic, drinks, or maybe hot dogs for the fire.
We provide marshmallows and sticks. Box lunches or fried chicken dinners
available for an extra charge for groups of 10 or more.
