I went here today and I am still talking about it with my kids. I cant believe I didnt know about it before after living here 2 years. The goats are the best, so sweet. The wagon ride is wonderful, the camel that sticks his head in looking for food and a little pat on the head made it all worth it. They have some Ostriches that eat like a mess but I took some great video of my daughters feeding them. I almost think I had more fun then my 2 and 4 year old. This is so much better than going to the zoo and really makes you realize that even our native animals, the goat, the cow are just amazing and fun creatures with great personalities. The Amish community is really a very beautiful community and what they have done with this place speaks wonders of their community. It is fun for your children and it is as much fun for you. A really great experience and I will be back as many times as I can fit in for the summer.

I have to admit that I was a little worried when my parents wanted take the grandkids to some "safari wildlife" place. I almost sat the adventure out. So glad that I didnt, it was awesome! I dont know who had the most fun! Grandparents, parents, and grandkids all had a blast! Kids (ages 4 and 5) were kinda bored at the FT. Wayne Zoo, but they are still talking about this place weeks later! Look at the pics and read the reviews. All five stars? That should be enough to make you want to check it out. The wagon ride is a must. The people are great. There are picnic areas too, so pack a lunch. Oh yes, almost forgot: sing "Old McDonald" to the cockatoo a he might dance for you! Visited July 2014

We were so excited to come but we were almost there and the hours were posted and everything. We called when we were almost there to see if they took debit cards and the recording said they were closed for the season. We drove almost 3 hours for absolutely nothing

We loved this place, as did my 4 year old daughter. We spent several hours here and would definitely rerun in the future. Wonderful animal experience. Well kept grounds and pens, clearly the animals are well taken care of. Loved it. Wonderful experience.

This was an unexpected stop on my family road trip and my kids could not have been more excited. Quite a collection of animals. Access was nearly unrestricted. A real treat. More working farm, than zoo.

The kids selling tickets at the gate were knowledgeable and professional. I was impressed. The animals were a bit ragged looking, but that may have been due to the heat. All in all, a nice place to visit.

Had a wonderful time! They have a picnic area, a walk through area, and an area where they take you on a horse pulled wagon through all the animals that you can feed. A very good verity of animals!!!

The farm is wonderful! There are animals everywhere that you can pet and feed. They offer rides $12.95 for adults. Under 2 is free! If your in the area you should stop and visit!

The amish kids that are running the park did a great job. Family had lots of fun petting and feeding the animals. The animals were clean and very interactive compared to a zoo.
