Tractor Mac author Billy Steers was at Averill Farm September 24, 2011
with the genuine Tractor Mac!
A great time was had by all, and many children had the opportunity to sit on Mac and have their photo taken, and even listen to a reading. Billy and Tractor Mac will return September 22, 2012. Until then, get the latest Tractor Mac books and accessories at Averill Farm, beginning with our opening on August 15, 2012.

Hayrides!

posted Sep 3, 2011 3:23 PM by Kristine Averill   [ updated Mar 22, 2012 5:41 PM by Susan Averill ]

We were rained out of hayrides almost the entire last season. We just can't bear to leave big ruts in the fields as that would seriously impact our ability, and the ability of the  farmers to whom we rent some fields to cut and harvest the hay. We are so very sorry!
When and if the mud dries, we'll resume hayrides on fall weekends, generally between 11 and 4p, weather permitting.

Adults $5.00, children 2-12 $2.50, under 2 free, for a 20-minute tour of our historic farm.
