We had my son’s 5th birthday party here and it was a hit with the kids and parents. Cheryl was our host and she was incredibly helpful and fun. The banquet room is adorable. It was already set up with table clothes and cow balloons 😁…
Loved visiting this farm with my family! It’s very clean and well kept. The staff were all very friendly. It was great to see my grandson playing with the toys and interacting with the animals. I will definitely be back to visit soon!…
This place is so cute! The owner is so sweet! I’d highly recommend this place. The animals are very cared for and so sweet. Out of all the petting zoos I’ve been to they keep the place super clean! If you have time definitely check it…
