Special exhibits throughout the Village will include collections of antique and modern farming equipment and tools.
Visitors can tour the historic Corson-Gandy Barn, c. 1880, which is home to Levi the Village horse. Guests can visit the Village, pigs, chickens, and calves.
Children may also participate in farm chores at the agricultural barn complex throughout the day.

‘Down on the Farm’ is generously sponsored by Smeltzer & Sons Feed & Pet Supplies.
