Our Sonny Story
The tradition lives on!
For more than 125 years, generations of the Nagel family made Sonny Acres Farm one of Chicagoland’s favorite destinations for family fun.
Today, the family tradition continues as the Joyaux and Fontana families have stepped in to make sure the farm, festivities, and most importantly your family traditions can live on for generations to come.
Read more about the tradition, the transition, and what you can continue to expect from your favorite family farm.
Thank you for the recognition!
