Watch a square dance, peruse the farm equipment and tractors, get up close and personal with the animals, check out the vendor booths (including crafts and artwork), and be sure to visit the food court (where lunch is on your own) that boasts milk shakes, a variety of platters and sandwiches, maple syrup, mushrooms, potato doughnuts...and many other items.
