Our knowledgeable guides present an age appropriate narration about Smolak Farms while enjoying a tractor drawn hayride. The guide will talk about the history of the farm as well as the different crops we grow. The children's ride will not only be educational but fun for everyone.

Each paid participate will receive:

• A tractor drawn hayride with detailed narration of the farm
• Five apples (as long as our supplies last). After apple season, tour groups will pick one of our special sugar pumpkins.
• A visit to our 150-year-old barn for our famous apple cider donuts and a cup of apple cider
• Farm Activity booklets and a pencil for each child
