Fall is a magical time at Smolak Farms, and our Fall Festivals are the highlight of the season! Every weekend in September and October, we transform the farm into a vibrant celebration with unique themes, fun-filled activities, and unforgettable experiences for the whole family. The best part? Admission to the farm is always free! Plus, we offer special experiences like Hayrides, Cow Train Rides, and Games, which you can sign up for at the Information Booth.
Please note that apple season is over. We have an assortment of loose apples available in the Farm Stand, but there picking season is over. Thank you for your understanding.
