## Getting There, Parking and More

### Accessibility

The farm is honest that this is not an easy visit on wheels. The Village is an outdoor walk-through on rough woodland trails that can be wet or muddy, and you reach it by hayride, so strollers and wheelchairs can struggle. The farm asks anyone with mobility concerns to call 732-786-9277 before booking to talk through what the visit involves. Dogs are welcome on the leash on the farm by day but cannot go into The Village.

### Quiet Times to Visit

Weekends are the busiest. Village tickets for weekend nights usually sell out, while weeknights have more space but can sell out too. Tickets are timed and sold online only, so book ahead; the busiest nights also cost a little more, and the price for each night shows when you pick the date.
