Thank you for coming to Johnson’s Pumpkin Farm for your field trip! We are excited for you to join us.
Arrival & Check-In Information
- Please provide the attached map to your bus driver before arriving so they know where to drop off students and where to park. Upon arrival, please look for staff members near the main parking lot for further instructions on safe unloading and parking procedures.
- Our staff will be waiting at the drop-off area to welcome your class. Once your group has arrived and you have a final head count, please send one teacher to the check-in booth to complete payment and check in. At that time, the teacher will receive an information packet for the self-guided tour. Teachers, parents and chaperones are free, but will NOT receive donuts, cider, pumpkin etc.
- Parents and other guests arriving by car should park in the visitor lot and meet the class at the designated unloading area.
- Payment is accepted by credit card or school check only and is due on the day of your visit.
- School buses will be parked in the north lot. At the conclusion of your tour, please board your bus from the parking lot. Please note that you will need to cross our driveway. Be sure to closely supervise all children while crossing.
- If you have any questions or concerns before, during, or after your visit, please contact the farm office at (989) 752-3133.
- When your group decides its time for snack please send only a teacher or two to the end of the concession counter near register 5. Your snack will be bagged up with cups and napkins, and will be labeled with your school name.
Some other things to consider:
● There are NO inside tables to eat at. We only have picnic tables outside.
● Consider a rally point for children to gather at if they get lost, such as the windmill or
flagpole, or bell.
● If there is an emergency, call 911, then alert the tour guide to radio for medical help.
● The concession stand will be open during your visit, we take cash and credit card.
● Sometimes the animals are tired or distracted, unfortunately they aren’t always
interested in attention.
● Some of the animals will nibble on little fingers, so make sure to be careful.
