Stay with your group. Wandering guests are not appreciated and could get hurt.

Remember this is a working farm with a family that lives on the farm, be respectful of their property as you would want others to be of yours. You are invited as a guest to their home.

If you have a kid who doesn’t like to walk, bring a stroller. We suggest you sanitize the wheels after your tour, bring wipes or spray with you.

Ask LOTS of questions when prompted! Your tour guide is knowledgeable, take advantage of them ?
