Saturday Fun on the Farm

Bring the family out to the country to find fun, enjoy the benefits of being outdoors in fresh air and nature while engaging in safe recreational activities, and make memories at Rockford Park District’s Lockwood Park.

Activities will be available Saturdays, 10 am-4 pm, May 7 through October 29, 2022 (weather permitting), and include wagon rides through the park’s scenic meadows and woods ($4 per person, departing every 30 minutes), and free Children’s Farm Barn visits. For additional wagon ride schedule information, check https://lockwoodpark.com/rides.

New this year – the hands-on Pony Experience, which includes getting up close and personal with a pony or small horse to build a greater connection through a variety of activities offered each week; the fee is $8 per person.

Information about Lockwood Park, as well as prices and advance ticket purchase for fee-based activities is available at www.lockwoodpark.com or by calling 815-987-8809. These are some of the many family friendly low-fee and free activities offered by the Rockford Park District for the community to enjoy.

Horseback trail rides are expected to resume later this season; a start date will be released and posted on the website once it is determined.
