Visit the Livestock Barn

chickens1
Our Livestock Barn is a great place to introduce children of all ages to farm animals. We have several different farm animals in our Livestock Barn who live here year-round, including a very friendly cow named Flossie, a donkey, some sheep, goats, bunnies, pot belly pigs & sometimes ‘ole Tex, one of our horses comes in for a visit too.

For school groups, if you’d like an actual presentation on farm animals or the type of farming practices we use here to correlate with what you might be studying in school, just let us know. We can usually accommodate whatever topic & age group you have. We particularly like to stress the significance of heritage breeds for today’s agriculture as well as the importance of locally grown foods. Depending on the ages of your group members, we can give a Farm Tour where we talk about each of the types of animals we have & what they are used for.

Come see our HATHAWAY’S HENS, OUR SINGING CHICKEN SHOW!!! These little chickens put on a couple different shows throughout the day in the Livestock Barn where they sing & have interactive activities with the kids. Great Fun!! You can also give a try at our Milking Cow Contest too & take some pictures with our “dairy cows” (on a banner) that are the background to the milking cow.
