Goat at Oxon Hill Farm in Maryland

Oxon Hill Farm offers daily educational farm and history programs for people of all ages. All programs are free. For a schedule of daily activities, see the official Calendar web page for the park. Not all programs are offered year-round, and there are usually more programs in the summer months.

There is a limit to the number of participants in some of the programs, and this can be problematic on weekdays when school and other groups tend to visit. If you have a group of 25 or more (school, church, birthday party, etc.), you must make a reservation at least two weeks in advance, and the further in advance the better. Call the park at (771) 208-1536 for more information or to make a reservation. Individuals and families are welcome to visit the park during the week as well, but if an activity is full due to a scheduled group, they will not be able to participate. If you would like for your child to participate, call the park to see if groups are scheduled, and if so, is it likely that any spaces will be available.

Preschool, kindergarten, and special education groups must bring at least one adult for every five children. For grades 1 through 12, please have one adult for every seven students. Chaperones can participate in the activities and must supervise the students at all times. However, chaperones do not count towards the group size.
