Here is their website with information: http://www.howellfarm.org/
We try to make it there annually and every time we come to a new surprise, with new experiences waiting for us.
Last time we came on a weekday and the farm was pretty empty of visitors. I was there with a good friend, and we had six kids all together. With some very friendly volunteers our kids got to pick carrots from the ground, feed them to the cow, pet a really friendly cat, run with fun chickens, pump some water for the horse, and much more. We also met a whole bunch of interesting insects. On the way out we got a surprise: they found a turtle!! While driving home we also saw a dead deer being eaten by vultures. While it sounds icky, it was actually a really cool thing to see.
A great thing about Howell Living History Farm is that general visit is free, though we do make up for it in their gift shop. Also they have a lot of different programs to sign up for on the weekends. It is a great family destination.
