According to Director of Farm and Landscape Operations, Scott Clarke, "We're bringing back our visitors' Festival favorites, like seeing traditional shearing techniques and dog herding demonstrations, and simply enjoying a great time outdoors with family and friends.

Along with the crafts, demonstrations, and other entertainment, the Festival will feature hands-on activities for children and adults. Food vendors will be onsite. Parking will be free.
