Learn about agriculture at this FREE fun, family event! There will be educational exhibits and lots of hands-on activities. Find out what cows eat, sample cheese and ice cream, take a Stick Horse Ride, meet the Dairy Princess and Ronnie Raindrop, visit with farmers from a variety of different operations and pet a bunny. Bring a water sample from home and the 4-H20 Water Monitors Club will pH-test it for you. Just outside, visit with a pony, goats, sheep and lamb, calves, and a cow, and climb into some really big farm equipment. Agricultural videos for children will be shown throughout the day, and don’t miss Story Time with the Dairy Princess at 11:00 a.m., 1:00 p.m. and 3:00 p.m. Sponsored by Tompkins County Farm Bureau in cooperation with Cornell Cooperative Extension of Tompkins County.
