Goat Yoga
Our goat yoga sessions combine traditional yoga practice with playful interactions with baby goats. Participants enjoy 45 minutes of guided yoga poses while goats roam freely, followed by 15 minutes of free play. This unique experience promotes stress relief through physical activity and animal companionship in a farm setting. All skill levels benefit from professional instruction while creating joyful memories with these curious animals.
Pony Rides
Children experience safe, supervised pony rides using both hand-led and circle ring formats. Our trained ponies provide gentle rides year-round, with special seasonal programming during fall events. Each session follows strict safety protocols while teaching basic horsemanship skills. The activity encourages confidence-building through direct animal interaction in a controlled farm environment.
Pumpkin Patch
Our annual pumpkin patch features thousands of pumpkins for selection, seasonal baked goods, and Halloween-themed decorations. The fall transformation includes live music performances, photo opportunities, and special events. Visitors engage in traditional autumn activities while exploring the farm's decorated grounds. This seasonal attraction combines agricultural education with festive entertainment for family groups.
Petting Zoo
The petting zoo houses goats, sheep, chickens, and bunnies for hands-on visitor interactions. Daily feeding schedules and veterinary care ensure animal health while providing educational opportunities about farm life. Guests learn proper animal handling techniques through supervised contact. The exhibit emphasizes responsible animal stewardship and creates connections between visitors and livestock.
Train Rides
Our train rides offer scenic tours through themed areas of the farm, including a western town setting. The 10-minute journey educates passengers about farm operations while providing recreational value. The attraction combines historical elements with modern entertainment, allowing families to relax and observe the property's diverse landscapes from a unique perspective.

First time going and I was definitely impressed. This place is well organized, clean and the staff were really helpful/friendly. There's surprisingly tons of shade so bring a light jacket and go early to get a good parking spot. They do accept cards, but bringing small bills is helpful. We'll definitely go back again.

Wonderful small place for toddlers with petting animals, pony rides, haunted house, toy train ride etc. We were invited for a birthday party at the farm. Kids had a good time.

Farm based amusement. Totally enjoyable for kids till 10. The ponies are the main attraction, for which they kept the checkpoint at prices. The only drawback we felt was - We couldn't opt only for pony. It's all rides either *including pony* or *without pony*. By default, we had to get Golden pass, for the pony

I'm very pleased to say this place has all the required fun stuff for your family if you have small children, and they don't price gouge you to death on the food and other things. I will be returning for sure, and will be bringing friends along with us next time. Also, the people were all super friendly and if you choose not to wear a mask, they don't bother you and our family did not feel judged for choosing not to wear them since the majority of everything is outdoor. Super happy we came here!

I found goat yoga to be a stress reliever and might be all about laughter. Great combo if you ask me.
