Big Dig Potato Harvest Festival
Both Days – August 16 & 17 | 10 AM – 4 PM

Grab your shovels and join us in the fields for our U-Dig Potato Harvest! Kids and adults alike love the thrill of uncovering their own potato treasures from the soil. Learn where your food comes from and enjoy the unbeatable taste of fresh-dug potatoes—a world apart from grocery store spuds! Potatoes are sold separately on site by the peck or half-peck box. Tractor "rip" demos throughout the day make potato hunting even easier and more exciting for little ones.
 

Big Rigs Touch-a-Truck
Saturday Only – August 16 | 10 AM – 2 PM

Get up close and personal with farm trucks, construction equipment, fire trucks, and more! Little truck lovers can climb in, honk horns, and meet the operators behind these big machines. Don’t forget your camera—this is a picture-perfect moment!
