Have you ever collected warm eggs from the chicken coop or seen how fast sheep will run for their morning helping of grain?

Join us for our NEW weekend Hay Bale Hangout and spend the day at Appleton Farms.

Stop by anytime between 10AM – 1:30PM for fantastic farmyard meet and greets!

Hands on activities start at 10AM and run every ½ hour.

Greet our goats, make a wool bracelet, cuddle a calf, farm story time, collect chicken eggs and more!

In between activities hang out in the Carriage Barn and explore our all-day learning stations or picnic outside in the Stone Paddock!
