The growing season is over and the harvest season has begun! Join us as we tour the farm to learn about different preservation techniques.
About this Event

October is the time to preserve the last remnants of the summer harvest and store it in our historic house to savor throughout the winter. Join us for Open House NY Weekend to explore the house top to bottom with special architecture tours. 


Additionally, take a tour around the farm and learn about different methods farmers use to prepare the grounds for winter. Tours and activities will start at 11:30am (ages 4-7) and again at 1:00pm (Ages 8-12) 


Peek into the attic and historic root cellar to see where we store our preserved yields and try your hand at a quick pickle!


Prepare for your visit:

  • Farmhouse Family Day is from 11AM-3PM with the craft activity beginning at 11:30AM for ages 4-7 and 1PM for ages 8-12. This is an all ages event, ideal for kids ages 4-12.
  • Tours of the Wyckoff House will be available starting at 12PM.
  • Dress appropriately for the weather as Family Day takes place indoors and outdoors - make sure to wear closed toed shoes if you plan on participating in any farm activities.
