Farm events
Here at Blue Iris Farm, our primary goal is to rescue and care for animals while promoting animal welfare through educational initiatives and exciting farm events.
Our farm events provide a unique opportunity for visitors to have fun while learning about the animals we care for and the importance of animal rescue. We offer a diverse range of educational events, allowing guests to interact with our animals and discover their unique characteristics and needs.
But that's not all - we also offer a range of interactive events that cater to all ages and interests, from live music and local vendors to bonfires and our annual Goatoberfest. These events provide a memorable experience for families, couples, or groups of friends looking to unwind and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere of our farm.
We are thrilled to welcome you to Blue Iris Farm and hope that our events inspire a deeper appreciation and understanding of the animals we share our world with.
