This year’s Spring Festival will continue the tradition of great fun and learning for the whole family right at the Farm. Music, games, demonstrations and learning activities make the Spring Festival unique with its country setting. There will be opportunities to explore the trails and gardens, interact with the animals, learn about seeds and plants, and try your hand at fiber arts. Come meet the barnyard animals. For younger children, there will be craft activities, face painting, a hay pile and tractors to climb, as well as hayrides and live music. Food will be available for purchase.
