Kite Day at Terhune Orchards, Terhune Orchards, 330 Cold Soil Rd, Princeton, 10 a.m.

On Saturday and Sunday, bring your own kite or choose a ready-made kite from the wide selection in the store.  Or better yet, make a "guaranteed to fly" kite.  Whichever you choose, test fly your kite in a wide-open 10 acre pasture with all the farm animals looking on. The farm will ring with country music and entertainment all weekend. The whole family can tour the orchards and fields while riding in a tractor-drawn wagon. The sheep will be shorn on Sunday and children can take home a piece of real fleece. There will be special activities and games for children in the barnyard.  For all those hungry kite-fliers, they'll have lots of good country food.  The whole family will enjoy Terhune Orchards' famous apples, cider, donuts, pies, chili, hot dogs, fresh and grilled asparagus, salads, soup and all kinds of cookies and goodies.
