Families invited to explore the farm and win prizes
Bensenville, Ill. (September 19, 2024)— This October, Fischer Farm invites visitors to take part in its Harvest Hunt, a free, farm-themed scavenger hunt running from October 1-31. Guests can explore the historic farm grounds at 16W680 Old Grand Avenue while searching for hidden objects and learning more about the farm’s history and operations.
To participate, visitors can stop by Fischer Farm’s gift shop between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. daily to pick up a Harvest Hunt board. After exploring the farm and finding all the scavenger hunt items, participants can return to the gift shop to turn in their completed boards. Those who share something they learned during the hunt will earn a bonus prize.
“This is a great way for families to enjoy the beauty of the farm while having some fun,” says Fischer Farm Manager Christine Shiel. “The Harvest Hunt offers a unique opportunity to engage with the farm’s rich history and natural surroundings.”
The farm grounds are open from dawn to dusk, providing plenty of time for visitors to complete the hunt. The Harvest Hunt will also be available during the farm’s annual Harvest Fest celebration, noon-5 p.m. Saturday, October 5.
