Children’s Food Tour

This Tour is Great for Elementary & Middle School-Aged Kids!

Guest will be greeted in the Amphitheater. We stroll through the downtown area learning the Victorian history of Thomasville. We also start our quail hunt, finding quail hidden throughout town. We make a stop at Empire Bagel to learn the art of bagel-making, and enjoy freshly made bagels with smears. Our walk continues to Moonspin Pizza, while we learn a little more about the history of Thomasville. Pizza is lunch! Then, we head to The Big Oak, one of the oldest live oak trees east of the Mississippi. There, we get a group picture by the Big Oak Cam. Afterward, we head back to town, learning more about the unique history of Thomasville and hunting for more quail. We conclude the tour with a special chocolate demonstration from Sweet Cacao and enjoy a delicious macaron for dessert.
