Lyon
Family Farms is a locally owned family farm that opened
to the public a couple of years ago. We have hay rides
where you pick your own pumpkin, concessions, a baby
animal petting zoo, a large animal barn, playground,
corn maize and all the extra unusual pumpkins and gourds
you could want. We have tried to create an atmosphere
where the children can learn about animals and nature
in a fun environment.
In
our baby animal petting zoo the children can feed the
animals themselves. Our large animal barn is filled
with horses, sheep, goats, cows, chickens, and even
a pig. There are signs above each stall explaining what
products you get from the animals, their use on the
farm, and each animal’s proper name. We also provide
a short demonstration on the life of a pumpkin and how
the sun, soil, bees and water all play an important
role in the final product. |
