faq

Ticketing FAQ

Are there refunds if guests leave due to rain?
We do not offer weather related refunds. We try to open based on predicted weather however, the weather is always changing. If you have a general admission ticket and the weather does not look favorable to a positive experience on the day of your planned visit please feel free to use it on any other day of our operating season.
Can I bring my own food?
Yes! Guests are permitted to bring their own food and drinks to the farm.

(No alcohol of course!)
Can I leave and come back later in the day?
Return visits during the same day are allowed if you have not purchased a timed ticketed event. If that is the case, return visits will not be allowed.
Are pets allowed?
While we all love our pets dearly, no, animals are not allowed on the farm except for service dogs. In these cases, we ask that your dog be kept on a leash, be properly identified as a service dog, be well behaved, and in no way come into contact with other guests.
Is Harvest Tyme wheelchair accessible?
Harvest Tyme is on unpaved farm ground, but we do our very best to make our event as accessible to all our guests as possible. Wheelchairs, strollers, and wagons can be brought on premises, but the ground (like any farm) can be bumpy in spots. The remainder of the event is spread out over grass, dirt, and gravel which could be somewhat difficult to push through in some areas.
Do you have restrooms?
Yes! We have portable restrooms on site for all of our events.
Do you ever close due to poor weather?
Extreme, unforeseen weather can force us to close at any time. Announcements regarding any weather closures will be posted on our website, HARVESTTYMEFUN.COM and our social media.
Is there any recommended attire?
Because we operate early summer through December, we recommend being prepared for warm to cold weather depending on the event. We also recommend wearing closed-toe shoes or sneakers. Remember, that you will be in a farm atmosphere and should dress appropriately for the best experience.
If I buy my ticket online, do I have to print it out?
Online tickets will be emailed to you, and you have three options once arriving at our ticket booth:
1. Present a printed copy of the ticket
2. Show it on your phone
3. As a last resort, just give your name at our ticket booth & we can look up your purchase.
What age is Harvest Tyme most appropriate for? Do adults have to pay to come in?
One of the great things about Harvest Tyme is the fact that it offers something that everyone, of all ages, can enjoy. From babies, all the way up to grandma and grandpa, our goal is to make sure everyone in your group leaves with memories to cherish. Thus, yes, all ages 3+ do pay admission.
Do I need a ticket for my 3 year old?
Everyone 3 and older need a ticket. Kids 2 and Under are FREE.
What forms of payment do you accept?
Cash, Credit Card, & Harvest Tyme Fun Card.
Do I have to pay for parking?
No
