Revitalize. Kick back. Relax. Everyone will look forward
to and enjoy a fun-filled, carefree day at Amish Acres for your company
picnic (50 person minimum). There is no better picnic site than the
80-acre restored farm listed in the National Register of Historic
Places. You have all the fun!
Picture this: A warm summer day; the smell of our famous food wafting throughout the air. Children laughing and playing games. Your friends and co-workers competing in a volleyball or a horseshoe tournament, and refreshed cheers of victory once back to work on Monday after a deserved celebration. Our picnics are proven morale boosters and your employees leave feeling good about their workplace. Hassle-free planning means you get to sit back and enjoy the perfect day you planned.
One low price includes everything to make the day a success! Fabulous Amish Acres food, use of the groups surrounding the farm's pond, activities and staffing.
Your package includes the following:
Bingo
Bingo is available for the whole family. We provide all of the
supplies you need for 2 sessions (20 games; 10 games per session);
you provide the caller of your choice. You provide the prizes or
select from selected list of specially priced unique prizes from
our shops beforehand. Another
option: purchase Amish Acres gift certificates that winners use at
their leisure for dinner, theatre, baked goods, or collectibles.
Children's Games
Children's games include Milk Bessie the Wooden Cow, Harness Henry
the Wooden Horse, Pin the Tail on the Donkey, Corn Cobb Toss and jump
in the inflatable Bounce House*. Also enjoy Sack Races, Hula Hoop Contests,

Swan Paddle Boats glide around the farm's pond for all members in
your picnic to enjoy. (optional
activities may
carry additional charges.)
Additional Activities
Volleyball, Horseshoes, Corn Hole Toss, and Fishing
will keep your employees entertained throughout the day. Your company
can set brackets for a competition or they can play for fun. You
might also plan a raffle where lucky employees walk away with prizes
you've collected from area businesses - a raffle is a good way
to bring attendees back to a central location over the course of
the picnic day.
Scavenger Hunt
Families search throughout the 80-acre farm looking for clues that
enable them to collect answers to the questions provided on their list.
Amish Acres will provide prizes for the lucky winners.
Enjoy Amish Acres Historic Farm
At registration under the pavilion, your employees and their families
will receive a stamp that gives them access to Amish Acres Historic
Farm and Shops. For convenience, the activity locations and shops
are listed on the picnic map received at registration.
The Guided House and Farm Tour is a great way to learn about Amish society. Domestic demonstrations of crafts such as quilting, broom making, and lye soap making take place along the way. Three documentary films, Genesis and Exodus, are shown in the Locke Township Meeting House throughout the day explaining the whys and ways of the Amish, one of the films, Bonnets & Britches, is especially for children.
Farm Wagon Ride
Farm wagon rides are available to your employees and their families
throughout the day of your picnic. Rides begin at the Wagon Shed
at the sound of the Dinner Bell and continues down the long lane
through the picturesque woods. A sixteen foot covered farm wagon
with padded seats is pulled by a vintage bright red International
harvester Farmall H tractor or the team of Belgian draft horses
and travels down the gravel lanes and through the woods before
stoppoing around the pond for guests' exploration of the historic
outbuildings. The guide points out the ice house, mint still, and
maple sugar camp among others. Guests can roam freely and wait
for the next wagon.
