Want some time with the baby animals before the Village opens? Book a Behind the Scenes Tour, offered daily during Baby Animals at 10 am. Hop aboard our wagon hayride for your hour-long tour and get all the dirt about our farm from the farmers themselves. Learn about the history of the Shaker Village and farm including little known facts and secrets, and pet the newest and cutest members of our family. The tour will take you to see the animals in the Round Stone Barn, Dairy Ell, and barnyard where you’ll meet this year’s calves, lambs, kids, piglets, and chicks. You will be able to pet some of the animals and sometimes even bottle-feed a calf! After the tour, you are welcome to re-visit the barn and explore the rest of the Village, which opens to the general public at 11 am. Please note that ONE tour will be given each day to a single group of up to 20 people. Tickets must be reserved in advance and sell-out fast. Tickets are non-refundable.
