Shopping at Superstition Farm

Here are a few things you'll want to know before you head out to the farm.

  1. The dairy farm tour is subject to the outdoor elements. In the spring and summer, it can get pretty hot.
  2. Although there are plenty of shady spots, wear a hat, sunglasses and sunscreen.
  3. You don't get to milk a cow on this tour.
  4. Tours usually take between 1 and 2 hours, depending on how much time the kids (and older folks) want to spend petting the animals.
  5. You may bring food for a picnic lunch. Eating takes place on picnic-style tables outside, in the shade.
  6. Restrooms are of the porta-potty variety.
  7. Wear long pants if you are bothered by sitting on hay. Wear comfortable shoes, and watch where you step.
  8. The environment at Superstition Farm is simple/rustic. While they have plans to add buildings and more facilities, it will happen over time.
  9. You can now shop for cute cow stuff, toys, games, candy, fresh eggs, cheeses, local jams, honey and Udder Delights homemade ice cream at the Mooster's Moo-tique, the Superstition Farm store. Credit cards accepted.
  10. Bottled water is available for purchase, but you can also bring your own. At the end of the tour, mosey up to the milk bar and choose from 12 flavors of milk (small charge).
One more thing--don't forget to bring the camera!
