We've received some threatening emails (bad reviews, lawsuits, etc..) from clients that do not want their photos posted for the public to view. Even though they signed waivers, allowing us to post their content. We need everyone that paid ($15) and signed our wavier for the Bonus Cinderella photo to message us, so we can send your photo.

This was a learning experience for us and we will handle it much differently the next time we offer characters and/or photos at our venue. It might be more expensive and more red tape involved, but we have to protect our business. We apologize for the inconvenience.

We had multiple photographers taking photos that day, this first set of photos was taken by LMQ Photography.

We will post this message on both pages and the EggFest 2022 at Scars Farm discussion group.

We would like to thank Florida Farm Finder for organizing yesterday's event and everyone else involved, over 2,000 people came to the Central Florida Food Forest Festival. We want to apologize for some vendors that weren't able to make it out and everyone that did not have access to our animals. We had some staffing issues and was not able to give visitors access to the Animal area.

With that said, please keep an eye out on Scars Farm, Scars Animal Sanctuary and this page for updates on an ALL Animal event we are planning in the next month or two. All vendors will sell animal related products and/or run animal rehab/sanctuary programs. This will be a dedicated day to animals and local animal resources.

The setup will be similar to this event with the food trucks, DJ, adult drinks, etc... We will announce the date over the next couple weeks.

Also, please RSVP to our Fall Festival @ Scars Farm on October 22nd.
