Great farm. They sell some fanatic products. The family is super nice and knowledgeable about all their animals. The kids raise many animals and enjoy telling you about their animals. Great eggs and goats milk. Really enjoyed seeing the baby animals and getting to feed the critters.
Went to Easter event today so fun
Still so fun
We brought our three kids who are all under the age of 5, and they had a blast! The tour was very family friendly. It is a real operating farm so if you are expecting a typical petting zoo, this is not it. Really what it felt like was a look into a small farmers life, which was really something. I would suggest this as something if you are in the area, like animals, and are looking for something different to do!
My daughter and I did Family Yoga on Wednesday night. It was great! Very relaxing, and the birds' sounds added to the free spirited atmosphere. Lindsey, the owner, took us on a tour afterward and was very welcoming. We got to meet many of the animals up close and in person. I also bought some fuzzy soap and wool balls she makes with the alpaca wool. It was a very cool place to visit!
