Farm Manager – Gary Laird
The Eckert Grafton farm was our first location to initiate apple pick-your-own in 1964.
Ever since, families make this drive part of their annual fall family tradition. Grafton’s rustic barn and farm looks just like it did years ago. This farm is a favorite escape because you know you’re in the country… and you’ll surely feel you’ve left the city behind.
Grafton has an expanded entertainment area for both "little" and "big" kids! Watch the goats climb to amazing heights, search for eggs in the real hen house, play a round of miniature golf, bottle feed a calf, swing on an old-fashion tire swing, jump in one of our three inflatable jumping attractions or just relax and enjoy a funnel cake. Admission to the entertainment site is $5.00 per child.
Our 2007 season will include special festivals each weekend in the fall that will entertain and delight the entire family with great food, music, crafts and much, much more! For more information on our special events, check out our Calendar of Events.
The Grafton farm is also host to many corporate and small business picnics. These functions are by reservation only. Treat your employees to a good ol' country barbecue complete with gourmet picnic fare, fresh country sunshine and wide open skies. We do all the work, so you have all the fun!
