“take a tour, pet a goat & eat ice cream!”

A farm tour is a great outing, whether you are a school group, day care, church group, scouts or maybe just for a birthday party. You are welcome and encouraged to bring your group out to see a Real Working Dairy Farm! Feel free to bring your lunches and picnic next to the pond at the Farm. You are welcome to just stop by with your kids anytime we are open. There are no entry fee's at all. Farm tours are available by appointment for larger groups of 15 people or more for a nominal fee. After you make your booking, a confirmation will be sent to you by mail or fax. Be sure to let the farm know if your group numbers change, if you are running late or need to reschedule. Farm Tours are all "Hands on"! Milk a cow by hand, give a calf her bottle of milk, feed the ducks and geese by the pond and go on a MOO way ride. The Goats and sheep love to be fed too, then enjoy an ice cream cone along the side of the pond.

This is a real dairy farm. In the springtime there are tons of cute baby calves that you can get close to. They have chickens that range, rabbits, donkeys, mini horses, sheep, pigs, goats, and kitties. There aren't really tours except for the milking ones that are scheduled. It's free to go here, unless you'd like to buy some feed for the animals. We spent about an hour or 2 here both times. They have the BEST ice cream!
