What Others Have Loved About The Barnyard Zoo

My family absolutely loves this place. We’ve been three times and my two year old daughter wakes up every day asking to go see baby goats. We live an hour away and it’s definitely worth the drive! So many animals to interact with, pet and feed. On top of this, there’s a whole play area that is impossible to get my daughter away from. Farmer Ruth is very nice and knowledgeable and the animals are clearly well loved. We also purchased a rabbit from here which was an amazing experience as well! Cant recommend more. Pack a lunch, have a picnic and spend the day!

Amazing experience and my girls LOVE visiting! So many animals and a great place to be interactive and learn. My toddlers regularly ask to go back and we drive over an hour to get there, totally worth it.
