Family Fun at Farm Country – Thanksgiving Point: A Must-Visit for Families

If you’re looking for outdoor family activities in Utah, Farm Country at Thanksgiving Point is a hidden gem you won’t want to miss. Located in Lehi, Utah, Thanksgiving Point offers a variety of experiences for families, and Farm Country recently underwent a major upgrade, making it even more exciting for kids and families alike. Here's everything you need to know, from hours to activities and pricing, to help you plan a fun family outing.

Our Farm Country Experience

Our family had an amazing time visiting Farm Country at Thanksgiving Point. We are always looking for ways to get the kids outside and learning, and this spot didn’t disappoint. The park’s new interactive upgrades made it a perfect homeschooling activity and an ideal way to keep the kids engaged. From educational exhibits to hands-on activities, there was something for everyone!

Some of the upgrades included more interactive games, improved playgrounds, and enhanced facilities. Even the smells (which you expect on a farm) were made more tolerable, making the visit a more pleasant experience for everyone.

Activities at Farm Country

One of the highlights of Farm Country is the variety of fun, hands-on experiences for children. Here are some of our favorite activities:

• Train rides: Hop on a miniature train and explore the farm’s scenic grounds.
• Pony rides: A great way for kids to connect with animals and build confidence.
• Cow milking experience: Trey had a blast trying to milk a cow named Peggy! Watching the process was fascinating, especially seeing how they manage it with so many visitors. Peggy was an absolute champ throughout the experience, though if I were her, I wouldn’t be as patient!

Tips for Visiting

Since our kids tend to run out of steam in the afternoons, we recommend getting there early. Farm Country opens at 9 am, which gives you plenty of time to explore without hitting that afternoon slump. If your family struggles with similar afternoon energy dips, early mornings are the best time to visit.

If you’re planning more than one trip, consider investing in the Thanksgiving Point family season pass. Priced at $309 per year, it offers access to multiple attractions within the Thanksgiving Point grounds. Some passes even include Cornbelly’s, a seasonal festival with even more activities for kids.

General admission prices for Farm Country range between $20-$30 per person, depending on your child's age. Keep an eye out for special deals or promotions to maximize your experience.
