Kent Harvest Trails Pumpkin Girl You may start your farm visits at any of the participating farms. Please take care to note the days and times that each farm is open. Check the menu above for a list of participating farms and a map showing their locations.

Only a couple of farms have an admission or parking fee, although many of the farms charge fees for special activities listed in the farm’s description. Children should be accompanied by an adult. Please leave pets at home as they can disturb farm animals and operations.

Visit one or all of the participating farms during the Kent Harvest Trails. Hope to see you down on the farm!

Printed brochures are available free at all Family Fare Supermarkets, D&W Fresh Markets, Lite Rock 95.7 Radio,  Kent / MSU Extension Service, Kent County Farm Bureau, and all participating farms.
