Spring on The Farm

Celebrate the arrival of spring at the Watkins farm, and join us for a day filled with fun and learning!
 

Witness 1870’s style sheep shearing, stroll through our heirloom garden as it’s prepared for spring planning, and participate in activities and chores that were commonplace in the Spring during the 1870s. Activities include woodstove cooking, cross-cut sawing, rag doll making, toy making, ropemaking, laundry, blacksmithing, weaving, and more!
 

Admission is free for the event. There will be a free open house at the Watkins Family Home, and a limited number of mill tours will be offered for a fee. Contact the park at (816) 580-3387 for more information.
