Description
Fireflies are an “electrifying” part of summer. Join us to celebrate summer with an evening of nature, music, wagon rides, and outdoor fun!
Children can celebrate by dressing up as fireflies – making their own wings and antenna. Children will become bio-luminescent with their own a bug lights. There will be a $5.00 charge for the craft activities.
Visit our barnyard friends, chickens, goats, and bunnies. Have fun on the play tractors and discovery barn. Take a pony ride around the pasture. Wagon rides through the farm and orchards will be available all evening.
Did you know fireflies are actually beetles? These insects use their bioluminescence as a way to communicate with each other. Look out for their signaling while you are on a pony ride or a free wagon ride. Fireflies are mostly found along the edges of forests, wooded yard areas, and near streams or ponds. Terhune Orchards goes to great lengths to cultivate habitats for beneficial insects like bees, butterflies and fireflies on its 200 acres of preserved farmlands.
Hungry? You’ll find lots of goodies available at Pam’s Firefly Tent: grilled chicken, hot dogs, corn on the cob, pie, apple cider, donuts, cookies, apples and more!
Adults can enjoy Terhune’s own wine to sample or by the glass in the tasting room.
Everyone wear your wings! Come and enjoy a flickering, flying, fun evening on the farm. Parking is available at Terhune Orchards.
