The 10th Annual Family Day, a free festival open to the public, will take place at The Park at Harlinsdale Farm November 5 from 10a-2pm.
Franklin Parks’ Family Day offers many opportunities for families to have a great time on this historical farm. The festival features activities like miniature train rides, hay rides, pony rides, and a petting zoo. Festival attendees can also enjoy cane pole fishing in the pond. There will be inflatables, a photo booth, face painting and other farm themed photo opportunities, crafts and games. Artists Kelsey K and Hickory Rose will be performing live! All rides and activities are free to attendees.
Safe Harbor Equine & Livestock Sanctuary will be doing roping and riding demonstrations at the TSC Arena. Safe Harbor will also be doing horse mane and tail braiding demonstrations, hosting corn hole and calf roping games for prizes, and raffles. Participants will also have the opportunity to meet foster horses, sponsor a foster or sanctuary horse, and have a photo opportunity with a “unicorn.”
Food will be offered for purchase by local food vendors including Itty Bitty Donuts, Hoss’ Loaded Burger, Buns on the Run, and more.
Following Family Day, there will be a grand opening event at the new K-9 Korral Dog Park at The Park at Harlinsdale Farm. The ribbon cutting will take place at 2:15 PM, with activities happening at the dog park location throughout the Family Day event.
