About

Bob Evans Down on the Farm® isn't just a catchy commercial jingle. Bob Evans was a real farmer, and his farm is a real place in Rio Grande, Ohio. And starting in 1971, Bob Evans has celebrated America's farmers with our annual Farm Festival. This year, we celebrate our 55th Farm Festival with a wide range of entertainment, handmade arts and crafts, farm contests and local food.


Camping

FREE primitive camping (no electric or water hookups). Spots are on a first come, first served basis and no reservations are needed (there's plenty of space!). Portable water, porta-john restrooms, a dump station and 24-hour security are provided.


Food

While you can dine at the site of the first Bob Evans Restaurant, the Farm Festival also features fall favorites including bean soup, kettle corn, apple dumplings, ice cream, Ohio-made cheese, cider slushies and more.


Entertainment

Along with the great food, the Farm Festival brings incredible music, live demonstrations and family-friendly amusements. Wandering around the festival, you'll find hand-crafted decorations, toys and artisan foods from creators around the country.

On the festival stage, enjoy live music from renowned bluegrass, country and gospel musicians.
