Quick Actions

Tips & Advice

  • Arrive early on weekends, especially for the farm train, as it's a popular attraction for kids and only one ride is included.
  • Check the website for specific food truck schedules on Saturdays to plan your visit around your favorite food options.
  • Consider purchasing tickets online in advance to secure your spot and save money compared to walk-up admission.
  • Dress in layers and wear closed-toe shoes, as the farm terrain can be uneven and potentially muddy after rain.
  • Bring your own containers if you plan to pick flowers or purchase produce to take home, though bags are provided for berries.
