Kids under two-years-old can hunt anytime in a designated area. Children will hunt eggs at designated times- but are welcome to play at the farm for all open hours. The famous Candy Cannon will be fired after each egg hunt. Families are welcome to make a day out of the visit to the farm and enjoy baby chicks and lambs, the jumping pillow, cow train, and giant “bouncy eggs”.

At the Egg Hunts, Children will also be able to plant a flower seed and make a craft to take home. Of course the Easter Bunny and Easter Duck will be appearing at the farm for photos!

“It’s always a pleasure to see kids running around on the farm just like my family used to do as kids ourselves,” said Garrison. “Sharing our family’s love of the outdoors, farming, history, and the holidays is such a joy and we can’t wait to welcome everyone to our farm for springtime fun!”
