What Others Have Loved About The Barnyard Zoo

We had a wonderful time with Waverley’s daycare field trip! Her favourite animal was the dog and alpacas (aka in her mind llamas).

I've always enjoyed bringing the little ones here year after year - and it's nice to see the upgrades ! 10$ is a liiiiiittle pricey, especially for really little ones but I understand it's for a good cause, which we've continued to support - will be back !! Bring some carrots and apples with you and watch your fingers 😋
