How far is the walk from the parking lot?

There are shuttles and tractor-driven people-movers to transport people from the parking lots and demonstration fields. You can also walk along the Forest trail and over the creek – this is only about a 5-minute walk.

How far do I have to walk while at the show?

For three days each September, Canada’s Outdoor Farm Show transforms Discovery Farm Woodstock, Ontario into a 100-acre+ showcase of live demonstrations featuring ag equipment, field crops, livestock, exhibit booths and much more. The site is turf grass so it is easy to walk, but good comfortable walking shoes are a must. Watch for the tractor-driven people-movers to take people to and from the demonstration fields and parking.

At Canada’s Outdoor Farm Show, the use of non-essential personal golf carts is strongly discouraged.
