Updates for February 2019
February:
Easter Sunday will be April 21, 2019, If you plan to hold an Easter egg hunt, add
or update your information as soon as you can. In 2018 most Easter egg hunts
were held on
either Saturday, March 24, 2018 or Saturday, March 31, 2018. ALWAYS click the links to check date and time with the event's own website, as there are often last minute changes due to weather or logistical problems, just click on the link to the event's website and (in most cases), you want to click on the "events" link or "calendar" link on their website.
Or use their site search for "Easter". Do let them know you found them here, so
they will update us next year. Since many egg hunts do not publish the
current year's dates until the very last minute, we may not get their
current information, which is why we have links to their websites, facebook
pages and calendars. See their events calendar. There are also Easter breakfasts and brunches and
Easter parades to watch!
RELATED:You may also want to
go to a local farm to
Pick Your Own fruit and vegetables; strawberries start very soon in most areas!

Easter Sunday, 4-6 pm, Friday; 1-3 pm Saturday; 10 am-Noon and 2-4 pm,

families. It is a relaxing family event where the kids can participate
in a noncompetative egg hunt and interact with the farm animals.
As you come onto the farm and check in at the table, the children are
given an Easter basket with color book, crayons, fun items and
crackers to feed the animals. There is a designated egg hunt area
where each child can gather five plastic eggs with candy in them.
There is a limit of five eggs per child, partly because of the number
of children that come through over the weekend (we fill over 800 eggs)
and also upon parents request. But... once you have enjoyed all the
activities, as you are leaving, make sure you stop by the check-in
table to pick a bigger prize, such as a chocolate Easter bunny or
another prize of their choice. Other Farm activities include feeding
all the farm animals.Cost: $35 per child. For info, call.
