Join fellow Ford Scholar alums and their families at Bauman Farms near Salem at 1 p.m. on Saturday October 1st for a day of fun in the pumpkin patch. Covered wagon and hay rides, zip lines, corn mazes, apple cannons, and a giant pumpkin weigh off are just some of the activities available at the farm.
Thanks to Ford Scholar alum Cari Bauman, whose family runs the farm, FSAA members and their families will receive a special reduced admission rate: $6 per person, with kids 3 and under free. This entitles you to enjoy all activities at the farm – but it does not include food, drink, or a pumpkin to take home. However, there is a food court to buy lunch and snacks if you get hungry.
When you arrive: Head straight to the food court to the designated FSAA table in order to purchase your admission passes. Cash or check only please. (The farm accepts credit and debit for all other purchases.)
There is no need to RSVP … but we hope to see you there at 1 p.m. Saturday October 1st!
