A great place to spend the entire morning. It can get hot in the afternoon, so best time to visit is at opening, usually 10am. The animals are very friendly, and fun to mingle with. If you venture inside the enclosure with the goats and a llama, do not bring the feed bag with you! Goats will jump at you like puppies, but unlike puppies they don't have soft paws :) Feeding ostriches is possible too - you can just hold up an open feed bag, and they'll eat right from it. There are parrots, and a terrarium in the back. Don't forget to buy a feed bag!
It's a little pricey for a petting zoo for a family of 5, but it's worth it to walk around and see the animals! Not a ton of shade, so plan accordingly when visiting! Fun little petting zoo! The kids loved the different types of animals and how friendly the animals were acting!
Great for just adults or with the kids! You can buy a bag of treats to feed to the animals and most of them you can pet. It was a very peaceful fun afternoon.
Nice little roadside petting (and feeding) zoo. More like the farm you remember as a child up north. Most animals are rescues and given a good home. Yes there is poo and there are flies. Welcome to nature. It's an extraordinary opportunity to get up close and feed and interact with live animals. Affordable. Fun. Wonderful! Friendly employees.
This was a sweet little petting zoo. There were a lot of different animals, entry was very reasonable, and everything was very clean and well maintained. We loved feeding and petting so many animals and supporting a local business!
