Farm Fest is a project created by Zoe Landolt, Rylee Mastin, Abby Moseley and Karissa Peel, students in the senior capstone course taught by Michael Siepel, professor of agricultural science. The event will feature various games, activities and demonstrations suitable for all ages.
Visitors can expect a day full of education and excitement, as Farm Fest will feature demonstrations for equine riding, soil health, compost tours, sourdough starters, mushroom log building, Dark Skies, vegetable cooking, wild clay ceramics and herpetarium animals. In addition to demonstrations, hayrides, outdoor games, mini coloring activities and a petting zoo will be available for younger audiences. Food will also be provided, with hotdogs and s’mores available for all attendees. It will be a great day to come out and see the farm and learn something new along the way.
In the instance of rain, a tentative reschedule date is set for 3-8 p.m. April 24 at the University Farm. Additional information can be found on the Farm Fest Instagram.
