Arrive dressed for outdoor activities, including animal encounters, a woodland Scavenger Hunt and a relaxing campfire and marshmallow roast.
Start with saying Hi to our friendly herd of dairy goats and enjoy a peek into the milking parlour and baby goat pens. Meet the newest baby goat arrivals and enjoy the rare opportunity to snuggle and take photos with all the babies . Romp and play in the outdoor goat playground (weather permitting) and take some memorable pictures of your family with our best posers, Peppercorn and Mabel.
Next, we'll take a tour around the homestead and give treats & kisses to the alpacas (who doesn’t love a Hershey’s Kiss?). Enjoy a up-close look, and if you're patient enough, a rare touch of their soft fibre.
Feed treats to our Kunekune pig family and find out whose expecting later this winter…
The ponies will be ready for their favourite new visitors to take a ride on the obstacle course (restricted to children under 80 lbs). We will also groom and pet our favourite old granny pony, Champ Chickadee.
Afterwards, explore the trails of the Carolinian Forest and the Froggie Boggie Boardwalk with a map to guide you. Challenge your family to our Forest Scavenger Hunt and win a FREE bar of handcrafted goat's milk soap.
Each family can enter the draw once to win!
Relax at the woodland campfire for roasting marshmallows and hot chocolate - BYO mug!
