Activities and Giveaways

Get ready for fun on the farm! Meet the animals during Farmer Kat’s animal talk, make mud balls, ride the cow train and tractor tricycles, and don’t miss Farmer Jim’s tractor talk. Come hungry — the farm market and grill will be open, and berries will be ripe for picking! Our family festival always includes fun giveaways and plenty of free activities hosted by beloved local businesses.

Kids aren’t the only ones with activities to enjoy. Join Barre3 for a 30 minute, family friendly, all standing class using silent disco headphones. They’ll have 2 classes to choose from at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Barre3 is an effective workout that combines strength, cardio and mindfulness and we love their classes for their inclusivity, designed for all abilities.

We are also excited to collaborate with Bridgetown Baby to offer families a comfortable place to nurse, bottle-feed, and/or pump and store milk for their little ones during the event. Look for the Family Feeding Nest.

And big news! This year’s festivities will also include Bennett Acres: Farm and Flower Stand, a vibrant pop-up experience featuring cartoon fruits and veggies, a painted petting zoo, a DIY flower shop, and other unique surprises from the creative mind of Mike Bennett! Enjoy photo opportunities with farm animals and maybe take home a slow down sign or two!
