Visit the Queens County Farm Museum on the Nassau-Queens border to see the sheep get their annual haircuts. Move to the foot-stomping rhythms of live music, and enjoy farmer-led tours and a plant sale all day. 

Visit the historic Adriance Farmhouse for 18th-century cooking demos, and stop by the Con Edison Ecology Booth to Adopt-a-Worm and get recycling tips.

Purchase tickets in advance.
