Annual Passes
We now offer Annual Passes that have become quite popular with our visitors. We like to say you become part of our family and appreciate the support!
An Annual Pass allows you to visit the farm any and every day that we are open to the general public. Maybe you want to pack a lunch and have a picnic with your friends at the farm. Or maybe the kids need to unwind after a tough day at school. Or, maybe you just need to get out of the house. We are the perfect place for you! They also admit you to all of our special events (Easter Egg hunts, Barnyard Band & Booze, Santa’s Farm Fest, Fall Pumpkin Patch, Trail of Jack-O-Lanterns and more!) Our passes are good for the calendar year it was purchased and expire on the last day of that same year (December 31st).
Passes are sold per person for anyone 24 months and older. For more information and prices, click here (Annual Passes) .

“Every Child Should Have…
Mudpies, Grasshoppers, Water bugs, Tadpoles, Frogs, Mud Turtles, Elderberries, Wild Strawberries, Acorns, Chestnuts, Trees to Climb, Animals to Pet, Hayfields, Pinecones, Rocks to Roll, Sand Snails, Huckleberries, and Honeybees.
Any child who has been deprived of these has been deprived of the best part of their education.”
-Luther Burbank
