Name: Strong Family Farm Chicken Run/Walk/FunKidsRun
Start: 2026-05-17T08:00:00-04:00

Strong Family Farm Chicken Run was started 13 years ago to welcome the new baby chicks to the farm with a 5K run, 2K walk and fun kids run. In the past, approximately 200 people come to the farm to celebrate the chicks and the opening of the farm for the season. This will take place on Sunday, May 17th
with registration opening at 7:30. This has been the biggest farm fundraiser in which proceeds go towards our FREE Sunday programming for the season starting in mid-June.
