Great news, craft beer lovers! Blackbird Brewery is spreading its wings and landing at Phillips Farms of Cary for an exciting new venture. Starting in April, we’ll be onsite from spring through winter at our very own Blackbird Brewery Beer Shed, pouring our finest brews exclusively during the farm’s bustling special events. Think of it as your go-to satellite taproom in the heart of one of Cary’s favorite gathering spots!
The Beer Shed is located behind the paywall in the fun park. This exclusive setup, staffed by our team, is your dedicated spot for a cold, locally crafted beer while you explore all that Phillips Farms has to offer. We’ll have ice-cold draft beer flowing and cans ready to grab so you can snag a four- or six-pack to take home. Whether you’re browsing local goods, watching your kids dive into seasonal fun, or just soaking in the lively atmosphere, a refreshing Blackbird brew will always be within reach.
Phillips Farms offers family-friendly fun with seasonal activities, fresh local goods, and events like berry picking and holiday markets. This spring, admission is $15 per person for guests ages 2+, available at the on-site ticket booth—no sellouts! Enjoy the attractions, soak in the lively atmosphere, and relax with an ice-cold Blackbird brew!

Honoring Caison Levert: A Day of Giving and Remembrance
On April 5, for their Grand Reopening, Phillips Farms is hosting Kids Day for Caison, a heartfelt community event dedicated to celebrating the life of Caison Levert. This beloved three-year-old lost his battle with acute myeloid leukemia in February 2024. Diagnosed in the summer of 2023, Caison fought bravely for nearly a year, supported by his loving family.
Caison’s parents, best friends and business partners of the Phillips family, put their lives on hold to focus on his treatment. Throughout his journey, Phillips Farms remained a place of comfort and joy for Caison, making this event especially meaningful.
Kids Day for Caison will feature all the seasonal attractions at Phillips Farms, including a corn box, bounce pillows, wagon rides, grain train, roller racers, petting zoo, live music, food trucks, a farmers and crafts market, and more. A portion of all ticket sales from the event will go directly to the Levert family, offering them continued support as they navigate life after this heartbreaking loss.
