Family Farms
Dairy Days
Grab a bucket, toss on some overalls and prepare to experience the farm life. Children can herd cows from the cattle car to the pasture, milk a life-sized cow replica and even transport the bottled milk to the dairy truck for delivery. Children will better grasp
Pepper Patch Farm
Surrounded by a myriad of reds, greens and yellows, follow the production process of this native Florida vegetable from start to finish. Children will peddle a tractor to see how their own hard work can rush the peppers through the washing, sorting, and packing process.
Old Farmhouse
Forget buttons and switches that control modern-day appliances, experience home life from the early 1900s by cooking on a wood-burning stove, pumping water into the sink with a hand pump and washing clothes with a bin and washboard.
