Hello Friends of Waldoch Farm

(Last updated 10/21/2020 we will continue to have updates here or join our email list for the most current information on how COVID-19 is affecting our business.)

Fall Fun Update:

For the rest of this Fall, Waldoch Farm will be operating the Garden Center. The field of pumpkins will be closed because of weather conditions. We will not be opening the Corn Maze and Maze Area. The Joyer Barnyard will remain closed. As we exhaustively looked into all options, this decision was made with public safety in mind. We feel confident that we can continue operating safely at this limited capacity and hope to be a part of your fall traditions.

There are still many pumpkins on the farm, but temperatures consistently in the freezing zone is not great for the pumpkins in the patch. It is difficult to carve a "pumpsicle". This is why many of our pumpkins had already been picked before this cold snap and are in storage.

Our Garden Center is open with a wonderous selection of pumpkins, gourds, squash, mums, straw, honey and much more fall décor 6 days a week in our heated greenhouse. We are closed on Tuesdays.

Current Retail Store Hour are:

• Monday, Wednesday thru Friday: 10:00 am to 6:00 pm
• Closed on Tuesday
• Saturday: 10:00 am to 5:00 pm
• Sunday: 10:00 am to 5:00 pm

Closed for the season after October 31st.

We are also looking forward to doing some fall projects to make 2021 the best we can.

A few things working the land has taught us are:

• What a difference a year can make
• The sun will come up tomorrow
• If it moves, it breaks
• Success takes grit
• and you cannot harvest what you don't plant.

Just a little list of farm-isms and life lessons that have helped us through more than 100 years of farming with joy in our hearts for the earth, family, and rewarding challenges.

We hope everyone is taking the necessary precautions to keep each other safe.

We will continue the following practices for visiting Waldoch Farm and Garden Center:

• Everyone will be required to wear a mask or bandana covering their mouth AND nose.
• All cart handles will be sanitized between uses and carts will be fully sanitized each day.
• Maintain physical distancing from guests and staff.
• Follow the one way signs.
• Credit card transactions are encouraged, extra precautions will be taken at check out.
• No eating or drinking
• Wash your hands
• The Joyer Barnyard will remain closed

Joy in the garden,

Mary, Kathy, Andrew, and Doug and the whole Waldoch Farm Family
