SUMMER FESTIVAL

We will be open July 29th – August 21st, 2025

Tues – Thurs 5pm – 8pm, Fridays 4pm-8pm, Saturdays 10am – 8pm.

This is one of our most exciting additions to the farm. Gem miners buy a bag of mining sand. We have several different bags available from $6 to $30. Each bag contains a variety of gems and in some bags fossils and a geode. Miners then put their bag of sand into a tray and into the water of the sluice and find their treasures as the sand washes away. Included in the activity is a collection bag for the gems and an identification card to help discover what each gem is. The Gem Mining activity has been a huge hit at the farm so far and we are sure you’ll love it too. Some of the bigger bags can be shared between several people.

Yes, we have a variety of snacks, hot food, and treats!
Our Island Dogs food trailer sells hot dogs, nachos, pulled pork sandwiches and fries. 
The Treat Trailers sells Slushies and Soft Serve Ice Cream.
Snacks and drinks are available at the farm store.

Pets are not allowed at the farm.

We accept cash and cards.
