GUIDELINES

No pets please, even if you plan to leave them in the car. Wear comfortable, closed-toe shoes that you don't mind getting dirty. Wear sunscreen and a personal insect repellant for maximum comfort. Children MUST be supervised by their parent or guardian. Due to logistical constraints, persons arriving after the tour begins at 9:30 am Eastern time will have to wait at the posters display until the tour is completed. If you plan to purchase meats or poultry at the farm, please bring an insulated cooler to keep your product fresh. A very limited quantity of ice will be available at the farm, but ice is also available at local markets.
