Safety & Children:
EARTHseed Farm is a working farm. While we make every effort to create a safe and fun environment, we have lots of equipment. Please stay with your children at all times and do not allow them to climb on farm equipment or trees.
Dogs Allowed:
Trained service animals are welcome to the farm. And guests are now allowed to bring their cute, furry, and well-behaved dogs to the farm. However, dogs must remain with owners at all times, on a leash at all times, and owners are responsible for cleaning up after their dog. No exceptions.
COVID-19 Protocol:
Based on the latest CDC Guidelines, wearing face masks in indoor & outdoor settings is now optional (with exceptions to healthcare settings and public transportation).
We ask that visitors be considerate of those making the decision to wear face masks while in public.
As a reminder, we ask that you only touch fruit on the tree that you intend to pick and for your continued safety we have a handwashing and hand sanitizing set-up on the farm.
We will follow the latest CDC Guidelines and make updates when applicable.
