Thank You & Welcome Again

It was another memorable season at Rader Family Farms and we thank you for the record number of visitors we had in 2011. It's our hope to provide an entertaining and family oriented atmosphere for kids from 2 to 72.

We're into 2012 and planning has already begun for this year's fall season. We welcome you again beginning on September 15th and hope you will once again choose to spend your family time with us here at Rader Family Farms.

Field Trips & Parties
Upcoming events

A key part of our mission at Rader Family Farms is to educate while we entertain. We live in a day and age when many children think milk comes from refrigerators and vegetables are grown at Jewel/Osco. Rader Family Farms has been a working farm for over 100 years on the very land we use today.


When school children visit us, we want them to have fun running through the corn maze, picking out pumpkins and enjoying all the activities, but our greatest hope is that they will leave with a better understanding of agriculture and an appreciation for our Illinois farming heritage.

Let Rader Family Farms help plan your fall birthday party. We've got a variety of packages to make this year's celebration one that will be remembered for years to come. Take a look at what we can offer or contact Kacy at parties@raderfamilyfarms.com.
