Put these farms on your itinerary:
This farm is set up for visits from families to tour groups yet they have maintained the feeling of visiting a 210 acre working farm with 180 cows and they also have a petting area for adults and kids.
Birchwood Dairy Farm
You will want to visit real live bee hives in Abbotsford:
They offer educational tours for groups of 5 or more throughout the year but encourage these to take place from May to August when they are able to take the group to see the live hives

They also have Honey Wine.
Honey wine tastings are 6 days per week during their open hours, to those 19 years and older. ID required.
