Gorgeous farm and garden. A lovely way to spend some time in nature. We particularly loved Shirley the cow and all the goats.

πŸ† Family Action Verdict

Best on dry days when all animals are outside and the full site is accessible β€” wet weather keeps animals indoors and reduces what children can see. The Animal Encounter sessions are the best time for hands-on interaction with the animals; check the schedule in advance. Knowledgeable and approachable staff enhance the visit for curious children.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

⏰Check the Animal Encounter schedule in advance if hands-on interaction is important

β€œFirst visit in years, took my boyfriend to show him one of my childhood places. Lived up to my expectations and more. So peaceful, tranquil and uplifting. So much love and care had gone into place. Beautifully presented. Loved seeing the animals πŸšœπŸ‘©β€πŸŒΎπŸŒ»πŸŒΊπŸ‘πŸΎπŸ„β€

β€œWho knew there was a farm in the city. What a fun find! Kids loved the giant pigs and the two baby goats. Staff member was great at explaining about the animals when we asked him for more info.”

β€œVery cute and quaint city farm that has managed to tetris itself around some railway tracks. Perfect for a little outing. Free admission but PLEASE DONATE ! Finally got to meet Shirley and the other cute animals at the farm. From one city farm worker to another they're doing great but all the support is greatly appreciated if you are able!”
