Bob Evans Farm manager Ray McKinniss described the festival as an "opportunity to sample pioneer life as it was decades ago" while enjoying "a farm harvest celebration of today."
Activities just for kids include the barn loft jump, hay bale maze, pedal tractor pull, lead rides, face painting, wagon rides, chicken scratch and fiber crafts. Continuous entertainment will also be offered, featuring clogging, jazz, bluegrass and country, and performances by the University of Rio Grande’s "Grande Chorale." A worship service and congregational singing will take place Sunday morning.
