Come celebrate the arrival of Spring in this socially-distant event taking place March 26-28 at Purina Farms! Here's your chance to drive through the rolling hills of Purina Farms while enjoying "eggcellent" activities, roving entertainers, and saying hi to a variety of animals along the way. Plus, pose for a special springtime photo you'll treasure for years. 

Tickets are $17 per vehicle and limited spots are available within each 30-minute time window. Pre-registration is required. Receive a printed keepsake photo on the spot, plus a digital version to print and share, as well as pick up a special goody bag featuring a flowerpot with seeds and a bandana. Each child in the vehicle will receive an activity book, and the pets will get treats along with a one-of-a-kind scratch and sniff book! To enhance the experience even more, select from unique add-on food, beverage, and gift options. A portion of every registration benefits Open Door Animal Sanctuary and Longmeadow Rescue Ranch. Help support the benefiting animal welfare organizations even further by bringing along a supply from their wish lists to donate.

The Springtime Village Drive-Thru Experience takes place March 26-28 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. each day.
