This year’s festival will celebrate Farmpark’s 34th anniversary as a family-oriented farm and educational center devoted to fostering a better understanding of our agricultural roots.
FarmFest marks a special opportunity for families to enjoy Farmpark and its most popular activities and attractions at no cost — this includes animal encounters, wagon rides and other fun farm activities. Educational programs, varying from cheese-making demonstrations to farm-to-table culinary tastings, will be featured throughout the course of the event. Pony rides ($6) will also be offered, weather permitting.
“With free admission to this event, it is a great opportunity to experience Farmpark and explore our agriculturally themed programs while enjoying live music. Food trucks will be onsite selling a variety of favorites and guests can also purchase beer from a local brewery and wine from a local winery,” said Andy McGovern, Lake Metroparks Farmpark event manager.
He added, “Visitors of all ages can enjoy spending time with our farm animals and taking a wagon ride through the park.”
The event also features craft vendors, horse shows and much more.
