What Every Party Includes
Every Hopecote birthday party is a private 2-hour event on the farm. Here's what's built into every booking.
Guided time with Hopecote's chickens and pigs — up close, hands-on, and led by a farm host who teaches kids how to interact gently and confidently.
A guided walk through 35 acres of rolling Tennessee farmland. Kids explore garden beds, open fields, and the working spaces that make Hopecote real.
Every party includes a hands-on craft — animal, floral, or farm-themed. Each child makes something with their own hands and takes it home.
Weather-flexible event space for up to 30 kids. Set up your own decorations, bring your cake, and make the space yours for the full two hours.
A Hopecote team member is with your group the entire time — leading the animal experience, guiding the craft, and keeping things running smoothly.
Real farm. Real animals. Real Tennessee light. Parents consistently say Hopecote birthday photos are the best they've ever taken of their kids.
Choose Your Craft
When you book, choose one craft theme for your group. Every child completes their own version and takes it home.
From painted ceramic chicks to handprint animal art — crafts inspired by the real animals on the farm. Perfect for animal-loving birthday kids.
Pressed flower frames, seed planting pots, and floral crowns using blooms from the Hopecote gardens. Beautiful, tactile, and take-homeable.
Pioneer-inspired crafts: nature journals, herb bundles, painted farm signs, or mini terracotta pots. A little rustic, a lot charming.

Common Questions
Honest answers before you book.
"What if my child is scared of animals?"
Completely normal — and we handle it gently every time. No child is ever required to interact before they're ready. Our farm host reads each child and moves at their pace. Most nervous kids are the ones asking to hold the chick by the end.
"What happens if it rains?"
We have covered and indoor space available for every party. A little Tennessee weather won't cancel the fun — we move the party inside and the animals are still there. We've never had to cancel a birthday.
"Can we bring our own food and decorations?"
Absolutely. Bring your cake, your balloons, your favorite snacks — the space is yours for the full two hours. We provide tables and chairs. You make it feel like a birthday.
"Is this good for mixed ages — toddlers through tweens?"
Yes. We host all ages, and the farm genuinely works for every kid differently. Toddlers love the sensory experience. Older kids get more confident with the animals. The craft scales too — everyone finds their version of it.
"How far in advance do I need to book?"
We recommend at least 3 weeks out, especially for weekend dates in spring and fall. Summer weekends book fast. If you have a specific date in mind, book early — your date is secured when payment is made in full.
"Can adults enjoy it too?"
Honestly, yes. Parents almost always end up right in the middle of the animal experience themselves. The farm has a way of doing that. You'll want to be there — not just watching from the side.
