Imagine a place where people and animals mingle comfortably, and where you and your family can enjoy farm animals at their best—in a clean, natural and relaxed atmosphere. Such a place is the Friendly Farm.
Wander the grounds, have a picnic, and learn something new. Most of our animals will be more than happy to eat right out of your hand. You’ll find the Friendly Farm has something to offer to kids—of ALL ages!
