Story time on the Farm at Smith's Nursery and Produce Farm in Benson

Bring your little ones out to the farm for a relaxing morning of stories and activities. This program runs every Friday through the fall and welcomes children ages 3–8 along with their families. Each session includes a story reading, a themed craft or hands-on activity, and time for outdoor fun under the shady pine trees—a perfect way to enjoy nature while making summer memories together. Best of all, this event is completely free. Simply bring a blanket or lawn chair, settle in at the farm market area, and let your kids enjoy an unhurried morning surrounded by the farm setting. It's an easy, low-key outing that combines storytelling with a bit of farm exploration, making it ideal for families looking for a screen-free activity in a peaceful outdoor space.
