Little Farmer Fridays: Donkey Dance Party

May 10 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

Get ready for a hoof-tapping, tail-swishing celebration! Join us for a special dance party led by a Lifetime Fitness dance instructor that is sure to have your little ones giggling and grooving. Meet Poncho, our famous American Mammoth Jack donkey, and enjoy all your favorite farm activities like tractor rides, chicken feeding, and more. Remember to bring your own snack or lunch to enjoy a picnic on the farm. Don’t miss out on this exciting opportunity to twirl, trot, and dance your way through the farmstead!

Little Farmer Fridays is an interactive program designed for preschoolers and their grown-ups.  Most appropriate for children ages 2 to 5 years old, our programs offer families the opportunity to hear a story, make a craft, meet our livestock, enjoy a wagon ride, and have fun on our 4-acre farm.

Gates open at 10am for ticket holders.  

Stations are open during a two-hour, come-and-go style program and close at noon.  After the program is over, guests are welcome to enjoy time on their own until the farm closes at 2pm.  You or welcome to bring a picnic lunch or snack.
