Thompson’s Farm hosts a unique and exciting Easter event with their 11th annual Helicopter Egg Drop and Hunt!
The popular event will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on two dates to accommodate demand with drops on March 16 and 23. The Helicopter Egg Drop will be at 1 p.m. followed by an Easter Egg Hunt which is categorized by age groups so all ages will get plenty of eggs!
Arrive early and explore the farm while you wait for the helicopter to arrive. Take pictures with the Easter Bunny, play in the 6-acre play area, feed small animals, visit a petting zoo, enjoy fun Easter photo props, and take a hay wagon ride into the pasture and feed buffalo, brahma, and friends right from your hand! Pony rides and barrel cart rides will be available for additional fees as well. And of course, the BEST PART: watch OVER 15,000 filled eggs fall from the sky from a REAL HELICOPTER!
Tickets are $14 for anyone 3 and over. Ages 2 and under are free. Bring your Easter basket!
