This family-oriented event is rapidly becoming a favorite in northeast Ohio for both the young and young at heart. Families can enjoy farm activities, food, music, and much more including pony rides ($6). Pick up lunch or dinner from one of the food vendors while enjoying a glass of beer or wine provided by Grand River Valley wineries and Double Wing Brewery (other food and beverages are also available at a reasonable cost). Music wise, we will have a full slate of family-friendly groups to dance to.
