Frequently Asked Questions

Can visitors pet or feed the farm animals?

Guests are welcome to pet the animals in the barns, but feeding them is strictly prohibited because they are on a specialized farm diet.

No, dogs and family pets must be left at home for the safety of visitors and the farm animals.

Can I bring outside food and beverages?

Outside food and drinks are prohibited, but concessions such as seasonal meals, donuts, and cider are available on-site.

What are the rules for pony and horse rides?

Horse rides are recommended for ages 4 and up, and riders must be able to sit securely on their own because parents cannot walk alongside to hold them.
