Summer fun at WindReach Farm

July 15, 2008 - 9:50 AM

ASHBURN -- Music, movies and stars are coming to a local venue this month.

WindReach Farm, 312 Townline Rd. in Ashburn, is hosting a variety of events throughout the summer including an annual Farm Fair on Saturday, July 19, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The day includes farm demonstrations, wagon rides, crafts, a barbecue and animals to interact with, say organizers, who suggest a $20 donation per car as admission to the event.

Following the fair, on Thursday, July 24, and Thursday, Aug. 14, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. on both days, Ron Cross from Random Acts of Rhythm is leading an interactive hand drum session. The cost is $12 per person.

On Thursday, July 31, people are encouraged to take their picnic dinner and a lawn chair for a 'Movie under the Stars' starting at dusk. The farm will be open at 6 p.m. that day for families to explore the farm. Donations will be accepted upon entrance and refreshments will be on sale during the movie.

WindReach provides opportunities for people with special needs to experience farming and nature in Durham Region. For more information on the charitable organization, call 905-655-5827 or visit www.windreachfarm.org.
