Food

All food/drink and food related items such as plates/cup and napkins are supplied by YOU. Unfortunately we are not able to refrigerate or heat your food on the farm.

Please avoid bringing juice boxes if possible. The cellophane straw wrappers can easily blow away in a slight breeze and can be deadly if consumed by one of our animals with a mouthful of hay.

We will be starting off painting picture frames so it’s best to keep your food in your car initially. Once the craft is over, we will clean up the table and you can set up your food. Please do not serve food until your free time begins (last 40 minutes of party).

We are a pack it in/pack it out site. Just let us know if you need a garbage bag.

Parking and Other Frequently Asked Questions

We have 10 parking spaces available on the farm. If you have extra adults attending or have booked a larger group please keep this in mind as carpooling may be necessary. Offsite parking on Bear Hill Road is approx. a 5-10 minute walk from the barn.

Can we decorate? – We’ve got you covered! Our space is fully decorated. Balloons and pinatas are NOT permitted on the farm, save those for at home!

Can we come early to set up? – No need! You are welcome to arrive 5-10 minutes early to greet your guests however we will be starting off painting picture frames so it’s best to keep your food in your car initially. Once the craft is over, we will clean up the table and you can set up your food. Please do not serve food until your free time begins (last 40 minutes of party).

Can we bring our dog? – No, sorry. The farm is home to 4 lovely dogs that do not appreciate canine visitors. This includes dogs in vehicles.

Can older or younger siblings attend? – Yes! If you wish for siblings to take part in the activities they need to be included in your guest count. Siblings that are too young/old to participate in the craft or pony time, are welcome to attend as spectators.

Can we go pet those horses over there? – No, sorry. Not all of the horses are kid friendly and not all areas are kid safe. We ask our guests to remain in our designated area and refrain from taking self guided tours of the farm.
