Farm School
We believe that the best way for kids to learn is hands-on, submerged in the sights, smells, feels, and sounds of what they want to learn. So, what is the best way to learn about animals, plants, and the earth? Surrounded by animals, plants, and the earth! Come on out and get your hands dirty and your heart full. Milk a goat, collect eggs, plant seeds, feel fresh sheep's wool and hot horse breath. You might even find a fresh tomato or a chicken feather! We have options for all ages to inspire an appreciation for and interest in agriculture and nature.
Petting Zoo
We invite you out to tour the farm, meet and pet the animals, and ask as many questions as you would like! Our best choice for littles and families, but we welcome all ages!
