Summer Groups Welcome
A beautiful sunny day and a bit of relief from the heat with a high of only 83° and a nice breeze. We had our 1st 2018 Summer group visit! When you make a reservation at Hurds in our Summer season you get the whole farm exclusively for your group. Our farm activities, picnic pavilion, barn, nature trails and scenic open spaces are all included in the Summer site rental for Camps, Reunions, or Birthday Parties.

NEW this year we have added an irrigation demonstration for you to GET WET in. The cows love it, and so do the kids and counselors. See and feel the difference between modern drip irrigation and rotating sprinklers.
The bounce, giant slide and fish feeding in one of our irrigation ponds out the north side of our barn are always a hit. When your feeding the fish keep your eyes peeled for turtles and frogs!

When visiting us in the Summer come prepared. Wear comfortable walking/hiking shoes. Make sure to have sunscreen, hat and possibly an umbrella to protect yourself from the sun as you walk around. We have plenty of cold drinks for purchase in our Barn Market, but you are welcome to bring your own water, snacks or picnic lunch. We recommend water shoes, towel, and a change of clothes for our irrigation demo.
