Halloween at the Farm

Come show off your Halloween costumes and explore the Spooktacular Youth Garden for all kinds of fun.

There will be animal explorations and tracking, scavenger hunts, and games. Effie Yeaw Nature Center, Sacramento Splash, and Save the Snakes will have  creatures of all sizes and shapes for your family to see. Create natural Halloween decor for your home. Make acorn owls, autumn leaf butterflies, and corn husk dolls. *Decorate pumpkins for an additional fee. It is sure to be a treat!

You get to see what’s happening on the sun. Community Observatory docents will set up several types of solar telescopes for safe public solar viewing of the exciting events happening now.

There will be a bat hollow maze, a Halloween tradition at Soil Born Farms created by the farmers, where you can learn about bats, owls, crows, and hawks.

Naturalist Cliff Hawley will give a free talk in the Sacred Circle. There will be a Regenerative Agriculture Farm Tour where you can explore the American River Ranch through the eyes of a visionary.
