The Wisconsin Agricultural Tourism Association has launched the Spring Babies on the Farm Digital Passport.  

The free digital pass connects people with farms across the state where they can meet newborn animals and learn about agriculture. 

Passholders can visit farms featuring lambs, calves, chicks, goat kids, piglets and other spring arrivals. Guests can check in at participating locations, track their progress and unlock rewards as they explore through their mobile devices. 

The passport will run March 20 – May 31, with some farms offering specific event dates.

The Spring Babies on the Farm Passport makes it easy for people to find farms where they can experience that firsthand.”
