    The Watermelon Wobbler is a fun 5k trail run/walk/hike through scenic Wrentham conservation land and White Barn Farm property and is the second race in the Farm to Trail 5K Series! It is open to all ages and skill levels. The Watermelon Wobbler comes around in the thick of summer, when the days are long and the fun never ends! Our Peak Summer event celebrates just that - summa-summa-summa-time! The course is thick and green and maybe a little dusty! This event celebrates and supports the sustainability of local agriculture and land management by funding our mission to preserve open land and food security for our communities.

    COURSE TERRAIN

    This is an off-road trail race. Course terrain includes dirt and/or gravel paths, rocks, roots, and inclines and declines in elevation. It's a fun course that we think you will really enjoy! The course will be clearly marked and course marshals will be stationed along the race. A water station will be located at about the halfway point. This is a cup-less race, please bring your own water carriers.

    BIB PICK-UP

    Registered participants are encouraged to pick up their bib at the farm in advance.
