In addition, guests can visit a farm animal petting zoo, get up close with vintage farm equipment, and participate in a pie auction and pumpkin decorating.

The museum will also be open to guests, and docents will be available to tour the galleries and teach about the area’s rich agricultural traditions. Family Farm Day and guided tours are included with paid admission.
