Notes on visiting farms:
- Be sure to check their website for up to date information, additional farm activities and detailed directions before you travel
- Be sure to wear comfortable shoes because there is a lot of walking and you might get dirty
- Little ones will probably be more comfortable in a stroller because sometimes there is a lot of walking
- Take a blanket and/or chairs if you are planning to stay a while
- Most farms can take debit/credit cards but some don’t so be sure to bring cash
- Most farms will have refreshments but you might want to take a picnic or snacks just in case
