Services and Activities On Hold due to COVID-19

Many of the activities at the farm have been put on hold due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We will update our website content with information about which activities will become available when it is safe to do so.

The health and safety of our guests, visitors and communities is our top priority. We will make every effort possible to keep our customers, our staff and our family safe by following the guidelines set by health professionals at the Government of Canada and Ontario Ministry of Health.

Thank you for your continued support and we wish you all good health and strength. Stay safe!
