Take a tractor-drawn hayride through the fields, hide out in a hay maze, and check out the farm animals, kids’ crafts, games, and more!
The Reiner Family Band will be back with their toe-tappin’ bluegrass music, and Eyes On Owls will return with their fascinating live owl shows.
Enjoy demonstrations of both modern and colonial crafts, and shop from local artisans’ unique, handmade wares like jewelry, jam, bread, and specialty gifts.
Feast on homemade baked goods, cotton candy, fresh cider donuts made onsite by Great Cape Baking Co., soup from Lavishly Dunn, and lunch fare from Family Crest Catering.
Admission is $8 per person, or $5 per Mass Audubon member.
Children 2 and under are free.
All Farm Day proceeds help Mass Audubon’s South Shore Sanctuaries continue to protect and steward almost 2,000 acres of land on the South Shore; and provide quality educational programming in local schools, at our summer camp, and through year-round activities for adults, children, and families.
This annual event celebrates Mass Audubon’s 1984 acquisition of this amazing property, saving it from development and protecting over 500 acres of important habitat.

- Mornings tend to be less crowded. Especially If you want cider donuts and don't want to wait. And if you don't want to wait in the Hornstra line for ice cream, there are some prepackaged ice cream bars for sale at Janet's Country Kitchen in the barn.
