Summer Farm Tour

Saturday, July 18th | 9am to 11am

Once a year, we open our farm to the public to offer a behind-the-scenes look at what we do. We invite you to join us for hayride tours where you’ll see our free range turkeys up close and our farm practices in action. Inside our on-farm market, you can sample our turkey products and browse foods from more than 100 other local farmers and producers.

Our annual summer farm tour is free and fun for all ages. Our market is located at 31659 Willow Trail in Cannon Falls, MN.

Answers to questions about our Summer Farm Tour

I can’t make your summer farm tour day. Can I come another day?2026-03-10T11:40:10-05:00

Because we’re a working farm and very mindful of biosecurity, we’re only able to offer a public farm tour day once a year. If you visit our market during the temperate months, you will often see our turkeys out on pasture.

What should we expect when we arrive?2026-03-10T11:29:57-05:00

You can check in with our team outside of our market (look for anyone wearing a turkey t-shirt). We’ll give you a ticket for a hayride tour and let you know when it’s time to get onboard. Each tour lasts about 20 minutes. You’ll have a chance to visit our on-farm market before or after your tour to shop and sample our products.

Do I have to reserve or buy a ticket for your summer farm tour?2026-03-10T11:11:47-05:00

Our summer farm tour is free and no reservations are needed. Just show up between 9am and 11am on the day of the event.
