Closed Again
We are very sorry to announce that we will not be able to run hayrides to the pumpkin patch or have the maze park open today, Sunday October 30, due to the snow. It is a muddy & snowy mess and we believe that it is not safe to have customers walking around the farm.
SNOW??
It is raining and that is supposed to turn to snow today. What’s next? Unfortunately we can not run hayrides to the pumpkin patch or have the maze park open today with the forecasted weather. We do HOPE to be open on Sunday, October 30. Please check back for details.
Local Fall Produce
Summer may be over – and with it went strawberries, sweet corn, watermelons, and cantaloupes. But Fall brings a wide array of delicious foods. Squashes, apples, cauliflower, and cabbage are currently being harvested. Check out our featured items for some recipes.
Coming to an End.
It is true. The weather is getting colder and the fall season is coming to an end. With it is the end of the corn maze and the end of our BBQ chicken. October 28, 29, and 30 will be the last weekend to wander through the corn maze. It will also be the last weekend for our BBQ chicken. Both will be back, but not until next year. Don’t miss your opportunity.
Florida Citrus coming soon
We will be getting our first delivery of Florida’s best oranges, grapefruits, and tangerines within the next few weeks.

Ashburn’s Animals will also be at the farm on both Saturday and Sunday for pony rides and petting. Rides are $4.00 and all proceeds benefit Ashburn’s Animals on a Mission.

Only Two Weeks Left
Fall activites are well underway at Ard’s Farm. We would like to thank all the visitors the past two weeks. We truly hope that you had an enjoyable experience. There are only two weeks left for the 2011 Fall Season. This weekend’s forecast is looking good. If you haven’t taken your hayride or walk through the corn maze yet, join us this weekend for great family time.
Anti-biotic Hormone Free Beef
We just received a new shipment of anti-biotic, hormone-free ground beef and patties from Shaffer Farms.
A RAINY, MUDDY MESS
Rain has gone for today, but the maze is a muddy mess. For safety’s sake we will not be opening the maze park, corn maze, or hayrides to the pumpkin patch today. We are looking forward to a dry couple of days this week and hope that next weekend brings us lots of sunshine and dry weather. The restaurant and market will be open as normal. Have a great week!!
RAIN, RAIN , GO AWAY!!
The weather has not been our friend. Due to the forecasted rain today, both the maze and the hayrides to the pumpkin patch will be closed. Weather permitting we will be open Sunday, October 2.
