We'll have live music, apple blossom hayrides, lawn games, crafts, a scavenger hunt with prizes for kids, and very special Mother's Day Picnic baskets. Give Mom the perfect afternoon of a relaxing picnic on the farm. Bring a blanket and spread out on the grass and enjoy the sweet smells of spring with one of our carefully selected picnic baskets filled with local goodies. Pre-order your picnic basket on Eventbrite.com now! There will be lots of fun for the whole family! Local favorites the SteppingSTONE band will be playing their upbeat mix of original rock, bluegrass and folk from 12pm-3pm. We'll have hayrides running all day through our blooming orchards. Kids can hop off and participate in our nature trail scavenger hunt to win some special prizes, then participate in an apple blossom painting craft and a seeding workshop. All materials will be supplied and participants will have beautiful artwork and a brand new pea plant to take home. The grill will be open, cooking up grass-fed burgers and no-nitrate hotdogs. We'll also have fresh donuts, pies and more delicious treats available at the farm store. Admission: $5 per person* collected at the door. Pre-order picnic baskets. *The purchase of a basket below will include one free admission ticket to the event.
