What Others Have Loved About The Barnyard Zoo

It was such an amazing experience for the whole family. Ruth is very kind and informative. Animals are very healthy and well taken care of. Grounds are very well maintained massive play structures for the kids. Amazing variety. Cool baby goats. Affordable tickets. Lots of free parking. Buying some animal feed is definitely worth it. It's the best way to pet the animals. I would highly recommend this petting zoo to anyone in the area

A beautiful and peaceful place, the kids enjoyed feeding the animals and playing on the slides & swings… a trip worth taking if you’re looking for family time where the kids have an amazing outdoor experience…will do the trip again..

Super cute animals, lots to see and places to play. With younger kids, you could easily spend a good chunk of the day if you bring a picnic. Farmer Ruth is happy to answer questions! Remember to bring CASH.
