Tips & Advice
- Arrive early or purchase tickets online in advance, especially for the Adventure Package, to guarantee your preferred time slot and avoid potential overcrowding.
- Consider purchasing the Combo Package online for the best value and to experience all the festival and adventure activities.
- Dress in layers and wear comfortable shoes, as the terrain can be rugged and you'll be exploring the farm throughout the day.
- Bring your own picnic lunch to enjoy the scenic views, but be aware that an admission fee or activity package purchase is required to use the picnic area.
- Well-behaved dogs on leashes are welcome to join the fun, but they must stay out of the petting zoo and reptile areas.
