Exploration Days 2025: June 11-13
Join us for a three-half-days (rain or shine) where we'll embark on an exploration of our farm, its animals, and the products they provide. We'll explore the fascinating world of our farm's ecosystem, understanding how these animals impact and contribute to their environment. Discover their unique characteristics, natural habitats, dietary preferences, and the harmony that results from working alongside nature.
This must be paid via credit card at the time of order.
