Farm & Forest All Terrain 5K and Hog Wild Kids Fun Run
The Farm & Forest All Terrain 5K and Hog Wild Kids Fun Run takes place on April 12, 2026 in Stamford, Connecticut at the Stamford Museum and Nature Center. The program includes separate events for adults and for children.
Distances:
- 5K
- 0.3 mile Kids Fun Run for ages 5 and up
The course for the 5K starts at the Fedele Family Plaza and winds through Heckscher Farm, where runners pass farm animals such as cows, horses, llamas, goats, and donkeys. The 5K follows a two loop route around Bendel Pond and reaches Bendel Mansion, noted for its lion statues and an Italian Renaissance fountain. The route continues on wooded trails inside the Stamford Museum and Nature Center, crosses Otter Bridge, and returns through Heckscher Farm.
The Hog Wild Kids Fun Run covers about 0.3 mile and passes cows and goats, including a Scottish Highland cow named Petunia. The kids run has a limited number of spots.
Donations associated with the event support the Stamford Museum and Nature Center, an organization focused on preservation and interpretation of art, the natural and agricultural sciences, and history. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
