Location: Cranbrook Farms, Brussels
Bring the whole family for a fun and educational morning on the farm!
At Breakfast on the Farm, you’ll enjoy a delicious, farm-fresh breakfast and get a behind-the-scenes look at how food is grown and raised right here in Ontario. Hosted by the Terpstra family and Farm & Food Care Ontario, this event offers a unique opportunity for kids and adults alike to explore the exciting world of modern agriculture.
Meet your hosts:
The Terpstra family runs Cranbrook Farms near Brussels, where they milk 400 Holstein dairy cows in a newly built barn with a rotary parlour milking system. Today, the second and third generations work side by side, continuing a family tradition while looking ahead. After a devastating barn fire in June 2023, the family rebuilt with the support of their community, adding new technology and equipment to support the growth of their farm for future generations. Like many farmers, they are proud to welcome guests onto their farm on July 25 to see firsthand what it takes to produce high-quality food and to connect with the people who care for the land, crops, and animals every day.
What can you do at Breakfast on the Farm?
- Get up close with farm animals
- See tractors and farm equipment in action
- Explore interactive games and exhibits about where your food comes from
- Meet and chat with local farmers and learn about life on the farm
Whether you’re a lifelong farm fan or visiting for the first time, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. It’s a great chance to connect, learn, and make some unforgettable family memories.
