Fall Is A Great Time Down On The Farm

Ah, life on the farm. Getting up with the sun, milking the cows, bucking the bales, working the land to harvest the bounty.  Sound like fun? Of course not! You just want the fun stuff and that’s what awaits you at the Ever After Farms Fall Festival.

Every weekend from October 2 through November 7 (weather permitting) you and the kids can enjoy the cooler fall air while wandering around this beautiful working farm in Mims (just north of Titusville).

Here are some of the activities:

Meander through a sunflower patch bursting with yellow beauties and other wildflowers. Pick your own, sunflowers $2 per stem; wildflowers $1 dollar a stem.  Keep your camera handy.  There are plenty of picturesque spots waiting to give your selfies that rustic touch.

Nothing says autumn like a hayride.  Jump in the wagon and have the tractor pull you for a tour of the farm.

The kids will love the crop maze that is just the right height so that they can see where they are all the time.  Hi, mom!

Everyone will get a smile from watching the ponies, chickens and ducks.  You may even get to pet one.

And there is a farm playground, along with activities and games, food and drink vendors and more to discover.

So put on your overalls, grab your pitchfork (just kidding, come as you are) and check out the Ever After Farms Fall Festival.  Farms are fun when you don’t have to plow the back 40.

Entrance: $6 per person (children 1 and under are free).

Ever After Farms also has beautiful wedding venues available, U-Pick Blueberries in season and U-Pick Peaches in season. Peaches and the Fall Festival are at 4455 Dixie Way, Mims; and the Blueberries location is 4400 Bouganvilla Dr, also in Mims.

Don’t miss the fun!
