Liberty Township, Ohio – March 27, 2008 – Life is reborn with the worms and the bees each Spring down on Niederman Family Farm, where thousands of kids come to learn about a dying American culture.

 

Niederman Family Farm, surrounded by a burgeoning suburbia, is a working farm that invites the public to see an American culture of yesteryear. In its fourth generation, the Niederman’s have been educating families, school children and groups about farm life for more than a decade. Beginning April 23^rd, they will open new pastures and minds for Americans of all ages to plant a memory and knowledge of agriculture. Don’t miss the newest farm animals being welcomed into the world!

 

“Many children and their families are now generations removed from the farm and take for granted the significance agriculture plays in our lives,” said Bethann Niederman. “We bring this education to people, both kids and adults, in a very entertaining way! Our nostalgic look at the American farm is slow-paced, relaxing and fun. Families really connect while doing things together like a hay-ride, milking a cow, planting their pumpkin to pick in Fall, roasting a hot-dog, making S’mores, you name it.”

 

What used to be “life on the farm” is now known as “Agri-tourism.” And the Niederman’s grasped the concept from the get-go to save their farm.

 

“We had to diversify to survive so we sat around the kitchen table and began thinking of  innovative ways to attract business,” said Bethann. “One of the major attractions is paintball. We have four courses and provide everything you need for a blast with co-workers, friends or perfect strangers. All you need to do is show up.”

 

Something different is in the air this year. It’s early and bookings are already at an all-time high for groups to come out and experience farm life for a day. Bethann Niederman believes gas prices are driving business to Niederman Family Farm because families, schools, seniors and church groups are looking for new things close to home.

 

This season, Niederman Family Farm’s 265 acres will offer more than ever before. In addition to farm tours, the Niederman’s provide hayrides and allow visitors to plant pumpkins to come back and pick in Fall. There’s plenty of livestock to see and fun to be had. After all, it is a working farm.

 

Ongoing activities feature barn rentals, bonfire pits, paintball courses, and many seasonal events. Group accommodations are routinely made for families, Mom’s clubs, school groups, day care centers and home school groups. The Niederman’s also accommodate large family reunions and corporate events in a restored 1890s barn with modern amenities. 

If one day isn’t long enough to take in the relaxing sights and sounds of farm life, stay a night at the Gregory Creek Inn Bed & Breakfast located at the farm.

Niederman Family Farm is located at 5110 LeSourdesville-West Chester Road in Liberty Township, Ohio between Cincinnati and Dayton. Reservations are required. Call 513-779-6184 or visit www.ohiotraveler.com/niederman_family_farm.htm.
