No, pets are not allowed on the property.

​

Can I bring my emotional support animal to the farm?

Dogs whose sole function is to provide comfort or emotional support do not qualify as service animals under the Americans with Disabilities Act.  Coppal House Farm requires guests to leave pets at home to provide a safer and more positive experience for all attendees, including those pets.

Service animals are defined as working animals trained to perform tasks for the benefit of individuals with physical or mental disabilities- such as guiding people who are blind, alerting people who are deaf, alerting and projecting people prone to seizures , or other tasks directly related to a disability and are welcome at Coppal House Farm.

​​​

Are your farm and the sunflower fields handicap accessible?

Yes, for the most part it is.  Our paths in the sunflower field are certainly wide enough to allow wheelchairs through, but you would need assistance in pushing it.  Plan accordingly, please remember that this is an outside event with uneven terrain that requires a significant amount of walking.  You are always welcome to call ahead prior to your visit to discuss your needs.
