Can I book an extra hour?

We do not recommend extra time in the room as most of the fun happens on the farm. After you have vacated the party room at the end of your time slot you are welcome to enjoy the farm until close.

Can I bring in my own food?

No outside food or drink is permitted, with the exception of birthday cake or cupcakes.

 

Is there storage for my cake?

Yes, we do have storage for your cake or cupcakes inside our Farm Market. When arriving for your birthday party, please drop off your cake or cupcakes to our Farm Market.

Are you a nut-free facility?

While we do our best to not cross contaminate, we cannot guarantee that we are a nut free facility.

 

Are plates and cutlery provided? What about tablecloths?

Plates and cutlery are provided for both your pizza and cake. Checkered tablecloths are provided. You may bring your own decorative table cloths to cover ours. 

 

There is an allergy in our birthday party. Can I bring in food for this child?

Yes, only for the child with an allergy.

 

Can I bring in decorations?

Our partially enclosed party pavilion has a lovely simple farm theme. You are welcome to bring in decorations but in our experience with past parties they are not needed. You will have 10 minutes for set up in your room. We run 3 parties a day in each room so there is not much time allotted for set up.

 

Does the party room offer air conditioning or heating?

No, unfortunately the party room does not have air conditioning or heating. Please advise your guests to dress appropriately for the weather.

What happens if it rains?

We encourage you to include, "Please dress appropriately for the farm and weather." on your invitations. In the event of inclement weather, during the two hours of your party, your birthday party hostess will provide some activities for you.  The Barnyard Playland remains open (Jumping Pillows, Pig Races (fall) close with wet weather). In our experience as long as everyone is dressed appropriately everyone still has a good time.

 

Do you provide invitations?

The printable invitations will be sent to you by email once your booking is completed.

 

Can I invite my guests to come earlier to play?

Of course! In fact, we strongly encourage you to invite your guests to come early as on the day of your party, you [and your guests] have access to the Barnyard Playland from 9:00am-5:00pm. Include on your invitations to meet at the Party Room for 2:30pm as this is the official starting point of your party.

Do I call the farm or will someone from the farm call me on the Tuesday?
