ADULT AND FAMILY PROGRAM FAQS
Registration
Yes, preregistration is required for all programs unless otherwise specified. Programs have limited capacity and may sell out. To register yourself for a program, click the tickets button below the program description. We sell program tickets through our ticketing platform, Eventbrite.
Please make sure you enter a valid email and phone number so that we can communicate with you about parking information and call you in the case that there is a last minute weather cancellation.
No, you do not! When registering, Eventbrite will direct you to a PayPal pop-up to pay. To pay with a credit or debit card, simply click the grey button at the bottom of this pop-up that says “Pay with Credit or Debit Card“. You do not need to have a PayPal account to purchase your ticket, this is just the secure system we use to process your credit card information.
If you continue to have issues with this payment system, please reach out to us at education@gormanfarm.org
Each ticket fee to a program covers:
- Your attendance at the program
- Admission to the Farm for the day of the program for Non-Members. If a program takes place on a Sunday when the Farm is not open to the public, you can use your free admission another publicly open day that week.
- If the program includes crafting, the ticket includes the cost of the materials used
No, member ticket prices are only available to current Farm Members, not Evendale residents. While you do get free admission to the Farm as our neighbor, other benefits of becoming a member like ticket discounts, member-only programs, and more are reserved for our paying member base. We encourage you to become a member of the Farm to receive these special benefits and to support your local Farm!
Logistics and Details
No, all public programs require any children to attend with a registered adult (18+) who serves as their guardian. The only drop-off program that we offer is Summer Day Camp.
We announce upcoming programs through our monthly email newsletter; sign up below! We also post programs on our Facebook page as events.
Yes, you can send us an email at trenusch@gormanfarm.org with the name of the sold out program for which you would like to be added to the waitlist.
While it’s rare for us to get cancelled tickets, it does occasionally happen and we will notify you if a spot opens up!
Cancellations and Refunds
Programs run rain or shine! We recommend you dress for the weather and activity. We may move the program inside if possible or, in the case of dangerous weather like a storm, may cancel the program and reimburse registrants.
We provide full reimbursements for tickets purchased through Eventbrite up to two weeks in advance of the program. After two weeks in advance of the program, we will not provide reimbursements for cancellations of tickets.
Within the two week period before the program, we are not able to provide any reimbursements of your ticket purchase.
Instead, you can do one of the following:
- Gift your tickets to friends. They just need to let us know the name that the tickets are under.
- Notify us that you cannot make it. We may be able to open up your spots to families on a waitlist if the program had sold out.
- Consider your ticket fees a donation! Your ticket cost goes to support our mission as a non-profit and helps maintain our operations as a farm including feeding and caring for our farm animals, paying our hardworking staff, and funding conservation work.
If you are currently testing positive for COVID-19 or suspect you may be coming down with COVID or any other transmissible illness, we require you to stay home to help keep others healthy. Thank you for helping us to keep each other healthy and comfortable!
