Welcome to the Chronicle!

It’s Farmer Charley’s blog — and the best place to get all the news about what’s happening at the farm!

We’re publishing some of our favorite farm fresh recipes, as well as news about the eagles that live here, our kitten crop, new farm animals, how the maze is growing … and more!

Check back often, especially after the farm opens for the Fall season. We’ll be adding information almost daily about farm conditions, weather alerts, and special events

DOROTHY IS HERE FROM THE WIZARD OF OZ !

Dorothy and her dog have landed! We had a small tornado come through the farm on June 25, as we were starting to cut the Wizard of Oz maze.  She landed with a bang!  The winds were howling over 70 mph and the trees went flying, twisting and breaking off.  She blew in part of the old barn that was over a 100 years old.  Dorothy and her dog are ok and will be here when the maze opens, as well as everyone else here at the maze.  Glinda the Goodwitch protected all of us and will be here to greet you when you come to visit .

  Maybe you will see Dorothy strolling in the Land of Oz too.  Dorothy and Glinda and the Lion will be here  on special days for you to have your pictures taken with them.  See our Calendar  and Events for those special days.

WE ARE NOW OPEN ON THURSDAYS FOR FAMILY DAYS AT FARMER CHARLEY’S !

We are now open on Thursdays at 4pm every week.  There were many families who requested that we add another day.  So, those who worked on the weekends can now come on Thursdays.  We have added this day to our regular Friday, Saturday and Sunday schedule.  For special pricing for families to save on Thursday, check out ‘Plan a Visit‘.  There you’ll see the hours and admission for the other days we are open as well.
