Jeff and Ruth Lee are excited to invite everyone out to the farm on Saturday, July 13th from 7-11am for the Wabasha County Breakfast on the Farm. Visitors will experience life on the farm and learn about farming and the dairy industry in Wabasha County. All ages are invited to come see the farm in action!
Visitors will see the free stall barn where the cows spend most of their time or stop in at the parlor where the cows are milked three times a day. They will learn how farmers care for their animals and the land they farm each and every day. Guests will discover local farming history from the Wabasha County Historical Society and see a demonstration about making butter. They will learn about land and water conversation from the Wabasha County NRCS and SWCD staff. Local agricultural businesses will share how they support the farms and families in Wabasha County.
Kids can explore the sand pile, go on a scavenger hunt, ride on a barrel train, and meet the calves in their hutches. Pancakes, sausages, apples, milk, and ice cream treats will be provided free of charge until gone. Pancakes and sausages will be served by Chris Cakes.
Handicapped parking will be available west of the farm. General parking will be on the county road. Buses will run from the Zumbro Falls ball field and from St. John’s Lutheran Church in Lake City (520 W Chestnut St) approximately every hour beginning at 7am. All activities will be within a short walking distance once on the farm.
We hope you can join us at the farm on Saturday, July 13th from 7-11am at Jeff and Ruth Lee’s Farm at 38093 County Road 75, Lake City.
