Behind-the-Scenes with the Farmer

Description Join Virginia Audet, Hidden Villa's Animal Husbandry Manager, for a special sneak peek behind the barn doors as she feeds and cares for our many animal residents. We invite curious visitors to tag along for a morning or afternoon session as you learn about the daily tasks required to keep our farm animals happy and healthy. See Virginia in action around the farm and hear directly from a local farmer as she shares insight into the purpose of our various animals on property and what makes Hidden Villa a unique institution. Come with an eager, curious mind ready to ask questions! Image_Hero Image_List Who Is This For? This is a walking tour designed for adults but children 10 and older are welcome to attend with their adult. Please note both adults and children must be registered. Cost $35/person Good to Know We will enter pastures, pens, and barns, and be walking outdoors in the elements for the entirety of the tour, so please wear clothing that you don't mind getting a little dirty. Please dress for the weather, wear appropriate head covering, and close toed shoes. The tour will take place rain or shine, as a change in the weather does not stop our animals from needing fresh hay or their daily meals. This tour focuses on daily farm operations and how Hidden Villa cares for its animals. If you want to pet and meet our animals, please sign up for a Weekend Farm Tour instead - https://www.hiddenvilla.org/programs/catalog/372-weekend-farm-tour/region-HV/. Please note registration in advance is required.
