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.

After the children take a hayride and pick their own pumpkin from the field, they get to personalize his/her pumpkin at our paint station. We have plenty of picnic tables available for sack lunches or snacks. Teachers and chaperones can eat from our grill hamburgers, hotdogs and grilled corn. Soft drinks and other snacks are also available. A head count is needed beforehand.

We would like to invite you to bring your class by for a field trip this season; no group is too big or too small. We are open September 20 thru October 31. Class tours are given Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. Call today for group rates and available times.

Sincerely,


Richard & Shelley Lyon
