Barnyard Critter Day

Description

Join us at the Agricultural Heritage Center for a day of critters and fun! Barnyard Critter Day is an annual event celebrating the vital role that farm animals and livestock play on the farm.

In addition to our regular lineup of chickens, goats, sheep, pigs, mini mules, cows, and horses, we will feature demonstrations of sheep herding, sheep shearing, wool washing, and spinning. Meet 4-H groups showcasing their animals and a ranger with their horse. Enjoy hands-on activities like butter making, corn cob doll crafting, calf roping, flower pressing and much more! A food truck will be on-site offering delicious lunch options.

Please leave pets at home so working animals will not be disturbed. All ages welcome.

Registration is not required for this activity, but you can still sign up to be notified in case the event is unexpectedly canceled.
