What’s Included
Every event includes full access to the magic of the farm. Guests will enjoy a private hayride, time with our animals, and use of our covered pavilion—complete with tables, chairs, a fire pit, bathrooms, and trash service.
Every party comes with built-in breathing room: 30 minutes before and after your reserved time for setup and cleanup.
Optional Add-Ons
If you’re looking to add a little extra sparkle to the day, we have several optional upgrades to personalize your party. These are entirely up to you—some families love to keep things simple, while others go all out with snacks for the animals and hands-on party crafts.
Some favorites include grill rental, marshmallow roasting by the fire, farm-themed take-home activities, or letting guests feed treats to the goats, pigs, and rabbits. You can even add a dozen freshly collected eggs to your basket or fire up the grill for a cookout-style celebration.
We also partner with Vocelli’s Pizza in Crofton, who offer Hansel Hill families 30% off when you call 240-320-5387 and mention your farm party. It’s a great way to keep things easy and delicious.

Animal snacks
Farm-themed crafts or party favors
Egg collecting experience
Grill rental
Face painting (free, with tip jar available)
Extra party time (for those who want a slower pace or bigger gathering)

Let us know what sounds fun—we’re here to help bring it to life.
Space Options & Pricing
We offer three simple options to fit your needs:
Weekend Shared Space Party: $245
You’ll have a private party area, but another family may be celebrating at the same time on the opposite side of the pavilion.
Weekend Full Pavilion Party: $365
The entire pavilion is yours during your reserved time slot. Ideal for larger gatherings.
Our private garden party area is in our hoop house and it’s perfect for events like baby showers and intimate gatherings.
Payment Policy & Options
To reserve your spot for any Hansel Hill Farm event (whether it’s a birthday party, school visit, scout overnight, or seasonal celebration) payment in full is required at the time of booking. If you would like to establish a payment plan, please contact us here.
Refund Policy
Life happens, and we understand plans sometimes change. Here’s how refunds work:
100% refund if canceled 30 days or more before your scheduled event
50% refund if canceled 14–29 days before your event
25% refund if canceled 5–13 days before your event
No refund if canceled 4 days or less before your event
If you need to reschedule due to an emergency, we’ll do our best to accommodate you.
Weather Policy
We love welcoming guests to the farm year-round, and most events are rain or shine. After all, animals still need feeding and fun still happens in boots! In addition, our pavilion provides excellent coverage in case of light rain, and most kids don’t mind a little mud! If severe weather makes the farm unsafe, we’ll work with you to reschedule. If that’s not possible, a refund will be offered.
However, safety is always our priority.
In the event of extreme weather (including heavy rain, high winds, or nearby lightning or thunder), we will work with you to reschedule your event or issue a full refund.
If both your party and the farm team agree that the weather poses a significant issue, a mutually agreed-upon cancellation will qualify for a 100% refund.
For birthday parties and private group events, we always offer the option to select a preferred rain date at booking, and we’ll do everything we can to accommodate that if needed.
Parking & Arrival
You’re welcome to drive up to the pavilion to unload your supplies. Guests can park in the adjacent Anne Arundel County school field next to the farm—just be sure everyone parks single file, as it’s the only authorized area for parking. If you need special parking accommodations, please let us know.
