FAQ’S

How do I sign up for the Mother’s Day Picnic? – It’s easy! Just click here or on the link, choose your ticket time and purchase your tickets. You will receive a confirmation email with directions to the farm and how to get your picnic when you arrive.

Why do I have to pick a timed-ticket? – Whichever time you choose, you are able to arrive anytime during that hour (10AM ticket is good for arrival between 10AM and 10:59AM) This helps us keep your Mother’s Day Picnic more enjoyable by spreading out the time between picnic “basket” pick ups.

What if it rains? – The Mother’s Day Picnic event offers NO REFUNDS. If we close on Mother’s Day for any reason we will offer a rain-date or send you a $150 Tougas Gift Card to be used in the future at the farm. If you choose to receive the gift card you will not have the opportunity to use it on a “picnic event” unless another picnic event is offered

Do I have a choice in what we eat? – Yes! Sandwiches, drinks, pie flavor and ice cream flavors are all your choice and with the exception of ice cream, you will choose with your ticket purchase.

What if I have a food allergy? -Please put any food allergies in the Notes section of the picnic order form.

Will you have someplace for us to eat our picnic lunch? – Yes! We have a large picnic area complete with clean picnic tables for you and your family to enjoy.

Will the farm be open for other guests or just Mother’s Day Picnic purchasers? – The farm will be open for regular guests during the time our Mother’s Day Picnic ticket holders will be on the farm. HOWEVER, regular guests will have limited lunch options, if at all. Ice cream will be available to purchase for regular guests.

What should we wear? – The farm often is cooler than your home and is not paved, so closed-toed shoes and dressing in layers is highly recommended. Sunscreen and hats with brims are also highly recommended as our location at the top of a hill makes the sun particularly strong.

Where should we go after we park? – Follow the signs to the Farm Store and come inside to any register. There you can pick up your picnic “basket” and wrist bands with your email confirmation.

How often will the wagons run? – Our wagons will run continuously, as needed, from 10AM to 2:30PM. Non-Mother’s Day ticket holders will be required to pay for a wagon ride. Picnic ticket holders will gain access to the wagons with their wristbands.

How will you know we have paid for the Mother’s Day Picnic and not just a guest visiting? – All Mother’s Day Picnic ticket holders will be required to wear the provided wristband to let our staff know they hold a Picnic ticket.

Are pets allowed on the farm? – We strive to provide families with a safe, fun, and memorable experience! We love animals, and many of us have pets of our own whom we consider family members. However, for the safety of our guests and farm animals, please leave your dogs and pets at home and not in your vehicle. For further information on our Dog and Pet Policy, click here

Do you have restrooms? – Yes! We have full-service restrooms including handicap accessible and changing stations available for your convenience.

Do you have parking? – Yes! Our free parking lot is large and flat making for easy access to the farm.

Can I use a stroller? – Yes! Strollers of all types are welcome at the farm. We recommend larger wheeled strollers for easier strolling on non-paved surfaces.

How much walking will we need to do? – Short and easy strolls are all that is needed to enjoy our Mother’s Day Picnic. All the day’s festivities will take place in our Courtyard which is surrounded by our Farm Store, Farm Kitchen, East Entrance, Playground and Barnyard. You will board your wagon ride from the East Entrance and be dropped off at the same location. See Farm Map here.

Can we pet and feed the barnyard animals? – Yes! Your Mother’s Day Picnic ticket includes animal feed that can be fed to all our animals. Enjoy feeding through or over the fence and when you have finished, wash your hands at our handwashing station outside of the restrooms or in our restrooms.

What kind of barnyard animals do you have?
Al, the Alpaca
Jake, the Jacob Sheep
Many goats, including BABIES!
Guinea fowl, you’ll hear their funny call and laugh at their antics
Vera, the hen
