Farmer's Mini Golf Tournament


This past Saturday was the Farmer’s Pantry’s annual mini golf tournament! Last year was our first time hosting the tournament, testing out our work-in-progress course. This year our 10-hole mini golf course is completely finished, making the tournament even more awesome! Families came out throughout the day to take a shot at capturing the lowest score and getting their name engraved on the trophy!
Our mini golf consists of ten unique holes with farm obstacles! Watch out that your ball doesn’t get too close to the lambs, or Clifford the sheep dog might steal it on you! Sneak your ball through the corn field, beneath the pig sty, through the chicken coop and make sure you don’t hit the farmer in the Johnny –on-the-spot! The course brings you from hole to hole on a beautiful walk through the apple orchard and out into the raspberry patch. So in the right season you can snag a tasty farm treat as you play!
Kids and parents alike battled it out to the road of fame, and it turned out to be a double whammy! The winners were father and son, Andrew and Alex Mackenzie! Congratulations you guys! Look for your names on our tournament trophy the next time you come to visit us!
Mini Golf is open for public use every day of the week, 10-6, and can also be reserved for later times by giving us a call at (519)-599-3691! Just $5 a person, equipment included! Also makes a great addition to an action packed day at the Farmer’s Pantry for school groups, camps and clubs, and can be built right into your package!
