What Others Have Loved About The Barnyard Zoo

Today was me and my fiancé’s first time visiting the farm, and we absolutely loved it! You can tell that the animals are well cared for, and the staff are so friendly! We spent 3 hours here, and we didn’t even realize because we were having such a great time. Not only that, but I got the opportunity to help feed a baby goat its bottle. The experience you will find here, is unlike any other. This farm was worth every penny. Go support this small business- you will not regret it! Can’t wait to visit again.

Great place for kids , loads of animals and the owners are super friendly. Its expensive to keep animals, but the admission here is a bit pricey. $10 a head, with no price break, or grouping discount for families. Otherwise its a great place to educate kids old and young alike. 🙂
