Instead of complaining about the cold, why not embrace it at the second annual Farmpark Ice Festival? The event will feature a variety of winter-themed activities including carving competitions, demonstrations, a battle between fire and ice and much more. Visitors will also enjoy crafts, a hot cocoa and s’mores bar, fire pits and live music. Friday night starts with speed-carving competitions and the night’s festivities will conclude with a large fire inside a six-foot tower of ice. Can’t picture how fire will burn inside ice? Come to Farmpark to see for yourself! The festivities will continue on Saturday with Elegant Ice Creations’ World Champion ice carver Aaron Costic competing against other local speed carvers. Visitors will also be treated to many other winter-themed activities and Farmpark’s daily activities. Regular Farmpark admission applies; children under 2 and Farmpark members are free.
