Nothing Says Fall Like this Family-Friendly Traditon

Nothing says fall like a family-friendly autumn tradition in Farmington Hills — experiencing the trails of Heritage Park on a hay wagon, roasting marshmallows over a campfire and sipping on apple cider, all part of the Nature Center’s programs.

Hayrides are held from 5:30-7:30 p.m. on Fridays through Nov. 6. Rides last about 30 minutes, and the last one starts at 7 p.m.

The fee is $5 per person and pre-registration is highly recommended, as rides fill quickly. Advance registration is also possible at the Costick Center. A limited number of tickets will be sold the day of the event at the door.

All ages are welcome for the hayride, and the Nature Center is also open late on Fridays during the hayrides.

Residents can also arrange private rides for large groups or organizations, or for birthday parties on any day of the week. Inquire at (248) 477-1135.

Heritage Park is located at 24915 Farmington Road, between 10 and 11 Mile roads. Call the Nature Center at 248-477-1135 or email asmith@fhgov.com for more information about Hayride Central or upcoming Nature Center programs.
