Erin Hill Acres is a family farm offering fun, fresh air experiences for people of all ages.

If you are looking for a field trip farm destination that has bouncy things and carnival rides Erin Hill Acres is not it! Our farm is not commercialized.

Why do educators, parents and children love visiting Erin Hill Acres?

• The FURRY HIGHLAND COWS
• The baby deer.
• The goats, chickens & ducks or...
• The rainbow trout when they jump for food
• The play area
• The bees & bee information or...
• The wagon ride with its bumps & turns (please see pictures of the wagon to see if it is suitable for your group)
• The lavender fields, pumpkin patch, Christmas trees
• The wood fired pizza or...
• The Adventure Walk guided by one of our farmers. This is when the group has fun while learning a little about NATURE, FARMING & HISTORY. Adventure & exploration of the Great Outdoors is worth the price of admisison. Each adventure walk is about 20 minutes in duration.

It could be all of these things, but perhaps it's just being able to get out in the fresh air where they can stretch, be kids and feel free.

Childhood is a blink of an eye. Learning is life long. A few hours on the farm is fun for everyone.

Our School Field Trip Fun & Adventure program is self guided with the exception of the ADVENTURE WALK!

Field trip availability is on select dates in the spring and in the fall, when the farm is predominantly closed to the public. Please email us if you are interested in a date that is not currently listed as available.
