Our property was homesteaded in 1919 by L.T. (Toot) and Doris Evans. We began working on our non-profit, children's program in 1992 and opened to serve kids in 1998. Old McDonald's Farm, Inc. utilizes Farm Program animals, agriculture, gardens and beautiful, natural resources to "teach and reach" children and youth. We offer many programs and "The Farmer For A Day Program" is just one. This one is open to older children and their families. We look forward to meeting you and having you join us as our guest!Enjoy the lovely apartment inside the Horse/Cow Barn at our non-profit, children's Farm Program! You'll have a great view on a beautiful 68-acre farm. Join us to slow down. The Apartment is spacious and sleeps 2 with 1 queen bed. Up to 2 more people can stay but bring sleeping pads and sleeping bags for them. The Bath House is a separate building but only 25 feet away. It has a claw foot tub, shower, running toilet and sink with hot/cold running water.  It is a beautiful building and for your exclusive use. We have 32 Farm Program animals at our non-profit, children's program so enjoy horses, donkey, goats, sheep, pig, geese, chickens, ducks, dogs and cats too. "Squire" is the black cat that lives in the barn.  He is a cuddle-bug.  Also enjoy getting on our antique tractor, playing on the horse swing, tossing horseshoes, going for a nice nature walk, and seasonal berry picking (available two places down when berries are in season). Our place is rural and so breakers pop, internet is dicey, dogs bark, geese honk, chickens squawk, donkey brays, etc. It is wonderful but it is on a farm.   We are located close to the Columbia Gorge, the Columbia River and waterfalls. You'll be just over three miles from Crown Point and the Vista House overlooking the entire Columbia River Gorge.   Suited for adults and kids four (4) years old and up only please.  It is not set up for babies and toddlers. Please plan on adhering to the "House Rules."  We thank you in advance. The space and amenities The Barn Apartment has a queen bed with linens, full size refrigerator, hot plate, kettle, toaster oven, microwave, dishes, salt and pepper, some cooking ware, lamps, heat, back deck, fans, etc. In addition, the beautiful Bathhouse has a sink, toilet and full shower inside a claw foot tub. The Bathhouse is very nice, but it was built years later so is about 25' away. It is quite worth the walk though. We are located in a rural area just 1.2 miles off the Historic Columbia River Highway near Corbett, Oregon and about 3 miles to Crown Point and the Vista House where you can take in the expansive view of the Columbia River Gorge. We are just 15 minutes from Multnomah Falls and close to many other beautiful waterfalls along the Gorge. We are located just 10 minutes to Troutdale, 15 minutes to Gresham, 20 minutes to the Portland Airport and about 30 minutes to downtown Portland. You can also learn the feeding, health and housing needs of all of our farm animals the next morning if you choose to add on a Morning Chores package (late spring, summer or early fall only and only if we have availability). The animals are always happy to see folks, especially with food in our hands.  An 'Add On' can be a hayride, a fire in our fire pit (unless there is a burn ban), Morning Chores package (two hours), horse riding lesson or drive a horse with a harness and a cart (if we have availability). Firewood for fire pit $6/bundle (unless there is a burn ban). We will provide kindling and wood.  You please bring matches, lighter, fire starters, paper, etc. and you lay it up and start the fire.  Please be sure that it is doused out, out, out with water when done!  - Hay ride $100.  This takes about 45 minutes. - Morning Chores package $125 for up to two people (not $125 per person).  Then, it is $5 extra per person past that and maximum of 8 people. During this program, you will have an opportunity to meet the animals up close in their farm homes and learn to feed and care for all the farm animals. Ask us first before scheduling please. - Horseback riding lesson is $100 per hour per horse and one staff person, or we can do two mini lessons for two people in that time. - Drive with Scalloway, our American Miniature horse, in a harness and cart $100.  This takes about 1-1.5 hours.   If interested in these, please contact us in advance and ask. We can see if we have a staff member to teach it or run it and then if so, we can tell you how to book it from our web site. We thank you for your interest. Once booked and you are joining us, meet one of us to welcome you, show you around, show you where the fire extinguishers, parking, etc. are and get you settled. You are welcome to come and go as you please once you check in with us! We just must make an appointment with you to get you checked in please. We do not do self-check in. Thanks in advance. Please also recall that we ask you to adhere to our "House Rules."
