Abruzzo's Genuine Country Festival!
Come and join us for the newest fun activity at the farm.... Country Festival! This American style event will bring together country music, American style food, dancing, children's activities, horse riding and cowboy shows! Wear your western style hat and boots and a checkered shirt if you have one and come and join the fun!!
Not only will be launching this event on the 1st May, continuing each Sunday until the second of June, we are also using it as an excuse to introduce some new animals to the farm..... shetland ponies! These cute little horses will remain with us and become another animal to meet when you come to the farm and they will offer rides for smaller children who find the donkeys too big!
There will also be market stalls where some amazing craftsmen will be selling some beautiful creations!
On the day of the event you will be welcomed to enter the farm where you can go to visit and feed the animals and also enjoy the cowboy style displays around the main farm area.
There will be country music playing throughout the day including live music by our guest country band! There will be an area where you can try your hand at line dancing and we will have our favourite child entertainer with us to lead activities for the kids!
We will have various competitions and prizes including 'horse races' ( youll have to wait and see!) and for the best dressed family each day!
On the 1st May we will have a local riding school present at the farm with their horses offering short lessons that can be booked in advance. Please make a note of your interest when booking in the notes space and we will put you in direct contact with them. Riding lessons may be available on other dates depending on demand.
We will also have a local cowboy present to show us his skills with a lasso!
In addition some of the market sellers will also have small country themed items for sale that can be painted and coloured. The items are for sale but the colouring and painting are free activities.
Food: We will be serving Tagliere, arrosticini (that you need to cook yourself on the BBQs provided with salt, charcoal etc all supplied), and drinks. There will also be other vendors with a food truck cooking and serving burgers and hotdogs! Maybe you'd also like to try baked beans and sausages in true cowboy style!? Food and drink does not need to be booked in advance but it is not possible to bring your own!!
We will have local artisan beer on the tap from ANBRA, wine, soft drinks and more available.
