Spring at the Farm
Mid March 15th to the end of June
Spring brings our Easter events, Blossomfest, and GOATerdays!
Summer at the Farm
July & August
Enjoy animal time with Marley the alpaca, Billy the goat, Jelly Bean the donkey, Toasty the bunny, Gander the goose, and our sheep and chickens. We also welcome visitors to start enjoying the playground and picnic tables, lower jumping pillow, pedal karts, and the first U-Pick of the year — Goji Berries!
Fall Family Fun at the Farm
September & October
By mid August, the fun has really kicked off on the farm! We have most attractions open, visitors are loving on all the animals, the jumping pillows and playground are full of the sounds of family fun, and the Applebarn Country Store is a regular stop for those wanting to shop local farm produce. Then as September rolls into October, we start to see the fall produce of apples and pumpkins come available for U-Pick and other activities such as the corn mazes and pumpkin patch experience.
