WHERE- Ardenwood Farms located at 34600 Ardenwood Blvd. in Fremont
About Ardenwood: Ardenwood is a working farm with staff and volunteers attired in Victorian clothing who guide guests through the Victorian house, demonstrate farm chores, and explain what life was like in the early 1900s. No visit to Ardenwood is complete without taking the train ride and visiting the Blacksmith shop.
On the day of our outing, Ardenwood is hosting their annual sheep shearing day. We will watch the farm's sheep get sheared, then try our hands at wool carding and see the transformation from fiber to yarn at the spinning wheel. Kids will enjoy stories about sheep and will be able to make their own wooly lamb to take home.
WHEN- Sunday, April 22 from 10:00 - ??
We will plan to meet at the park entrance at 10:00, then we will venture inside to explore the activities. Families are welcome to bring a picnic lunch and stay for as long as desired.
HOW MUCH- Because we will be going on a special event day, prices will be $8 for adults, $5 for children 4-17, and free for children under 4. Parking is free.
