Parties!
0You can rent a half a barn, or a whole barn. (If you rent a half, the other side may be rented to another party.) See pricing details below for THE RED SHED AND THE BLOCK SHED!
At Braehead Farm we welcome the young…and the young at heart…to come and have a fun filled birthday on the farm! Reserve The Red Shed or The Block Shed in the Family Play-Grounds! Each barn rental includes the rental space AND access for your guests to the admission area of the farm called The Family Playgrounds! This area is tons of fun and includes a hay barn, corn pit, farm animals, sand piles, slides, a tree deck with slide, and more! (For the general public, this admission area is $6.00 per person, age 2 & under free!) Any special events at the farm are not included in the party rental price.
Spring, Summer and Fall party time slots are 10 AM – 12:00 Noon | 1 PM – 3 PM | 4 PM – 6 PM (in Winter we close at 5:00 pm so we lose that last party time slot.) Plus you can arrive a half hour earlier to set up and get a half hour after for cleanup for a total of 3 hours for your party! The barn is to be left broom clean and trash in the trash cans. After your 3 hour party, you are welcome to stay as long as you like in the Play-Grounds or on the rest of the farm! (You must vacate on time so that the next party may start on time.)
