GRCM Rapid River Farm exhibit returns
The Rapid River Farm is back at the Grand Rapids Children's Museum, and it's ready for little farmers to get to work!

Presented by Herbruck's Poultry Ranch with support from the Kent County Farm Bureau, the beloved experience was built by local company Meta4Mat and even designed with input from area students.
