Frequently Asked Questions

Is there an admission fee to visit the farm?
Not always! Admission depends on the season, day of the week, and special events happening at the farm.
Our Farm Market, Bakery, Restaurant, and Pink Barrel Cellars are generally open without an admission fee during regular business hours.
During certain festivals and special events, tickets may be required to access designated areas of the farm.
In the fall, admission is required Friday through Sunday to enjoy our Beyond the Barns attractions. Weekday visits and designated U-Pick opportunities are available without general admission.
We recommend checking our Events Calendar before visiting to see what's happening and whether tickets are required.
Can I visit the Farm Market, Restaurant, or Pink Barrel Cellars without admission?
Absolutely! You're welcome to stop in during regular business hours to shop the market, grab some donuts, enjoy lunch, or have a glass of wine, beer, or cider at Pink Barrel Cellars without purchasing general farm admission.
Some special events may have different access arrangements, so please check our calendar before visiting.
What is included with admission?
Admission varies depending on the season and event.
During our fall festival weekends, Beyond the Barns admission includes access to the Dunneback Forty, corn maze, wagon rides, farm animals, Spookley Story Trail, yard games, and designated U-Pick areas.
Other seasonal festivals may include different activities and experiences.
Please remember that admission provides access to the included activities, but U-Pick produce, food, and beverages are purchased separately unless otherwise stated.
Do I need to purchase tickets in advance?
We recommend purchasing tickets online for festivals and special events to make check-in easier.
Certain activities, such as U-Pick strawberries, may require advance reservations due to limited availability.
Tickets for some events may also be available at the farm.
Visit our Events Calendar for current ticket information and booking links.

Where should we park?
Our main guest parking area is located in the field west of the white barns.
The upper lot near the Farm Market is reserved for accessible parking and guest drop-off.
During busy festivals and fall weekends, our parking team will help direct you.
Where do we go when we arrive?
During regular farm hours, you're welcome to head into the Farm Market, where our team can answer questions and help you get started.
During ticketed festivals and fall weekends, guests participating in admission-required activities should check in at the designated ticket booth.
If you're visiting just for shopping, food, or drinks, you can generally head directly to those areas without purchasing general admission.
Are dogs allowed on the farm?
Well-behaved, leashed dogs are welcome in our designated Beer Garden area directly in front of the barns.
For food safety and the protection of our farm animals, pets are not permitted in the orchards, U-Pick fields, or farm attraction areas.
We occasionally host special dog-friendly events, so check our Events Calendar for those opportunities.
Service animals are welcome in accordance with applicable laws.
What happens if it rains?
We're a working farm, and Mother Nature sometimes has other plans!
Many of our activities are outdoors and may be affected by rain, storms, or field conditions.
For everyone's safety, certain attractions or U-Pick areas may close during inclement weather.
