Giant Slides

The Spider Slide is one of the longest festival slides in Missouri made out of repurposed farm materials. Try all six legs and see which one is your favorite!   We are experimenting with different sliding materials—so far, gunny sacks look like the winner.

Unicorn Rides

On select days/times, unicorn and horse rides will be available for an additional $8/ride.  We are planning to have rides on Saturdays and Sundays from 12-3pm, but days and times are subject to change depending on the animals.

The Rhymers

AKA Our Peacocks

Our peacocks are named after singers, poets, and songwriters. Elvis is all white and squawks loudly when he thinks a peahen is around. Jimmy loves snacking on bananas and Prince is quite the peanut lover.

Animal Zone

Goats, donkeys, calves, and sheep are some of the creatures you can see, pet, and feed in the animal zone. These animals all have jobs on the farm, from fertilizing pumpkins to controlling weeds.

The Cows

The Festival is located on a working cattle farm, Morrow Cattle Co. The cows have generously donated some pasture ground for humans to enjoy the gorgeous views. Please be on the lookout for the cow’s pies. While the cows have good intentions, these pies are not suitable for human consumption.

Pumpkins

We grow over 15 varieties of pumpkins, from giant to mini, orange to black. They will be available for purchase and self-picking in the pumpkin patch beyond the lake dam (“The Dam Patch”). You do not need to purchase admission tickets to come buy pumpkins.
