What Others Have Loved About The Barnyard Zoo
Vanderlaand is such a great place for an afternoon trip. You can tell they really take care of their animals and land. 2nd time going and could not be more impressed.

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.
