What Others Have Loved About The Barnyard Zoo

Had a wonderful time visiting for the first time, it was beautiful weather and all the animals were so happy, healthy and friendly. We got to talk to Farmer Ruth about some of her new baby lambs and goats and she was incredibly lovely.

Brought my 3 grandkids today. They really enjoyed themselves! Animals are well cared for, and the owner is very friendly. Lovely park, and very family friendly.

We loved this farm experience. You are able to hand feed all of the animals as you go at your own pace through the farm. All animals are so friendly and calm! At the end of the path there is a giant play area for kids including play structures and many toys! We will be going back for another visit soon for sure 🙂
