POST PICNIC CLEAN UP
We request that you leave your picnic spot tidy – ready for the next picnic gathering.

1. When you are finished with your picnic, we ask that you carefully place all your dirty dishes and cloth napkins in the dish tub (provided for you)
2. Gently fold in the foldable table/picnic basket lid and place back on top of the picnic basket.
3. Any leftover food can be taken home (please provide your own containers) otherwise any leftover scrapes will be used for compost or fruit & veggies for our hogs & chicks.
4. Leave the picnic items behind neatly
5. Take a photo of your picnic spot/items and text it to the farm phone: 515-559-3555 with a quick note saying you are finished, before venturing to your car. 🙂 We will come out later to gather up items

Please DO NOT leave any food scraps out – as this attracts unwanted predators to the farm that could potentially harm or kill farm animals. 

DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS
As tempting as it is, we request that you DO NOT feed any farm animals (including dogs, cats, chickens, ducks etc…) 

Also, please DO NOT leave any food scraps out – as this attracts unwanted predators to the farm, that could potentially harm or kill farm animals. Please use the waste basket provided for any leftover unwanted food items.

DO NOT leave any food scraps out – as this attracts unwanted predators to the farm, that could potentially harm or kill farm animals. Please use the waste basket provided for any leftover unwanted food items.

This is a working farm – sometimes, you may hear the cows mooing, you may even see them off in the pasture grazing, the roosters crow all day long – despite what movies portray. A couple free-ranging chickens may watch you from the distance, or walk on by, and the ducks will keep on swimming and may even waddle through the property, you may think they are laughing at you, we want to ensure you, they are not! We do our best to create a very memorable picnic that captures the surrounding beauty and nature of country farm living. Come away, relax and enjoy!
