Join us for our amazing Junior Farmer day and experience what life is like on the farm! Spend the day with our staff behind the scenes and get to know our wonderful animals. We’ve got 2 different days to choose from on various dates depending on what animals you want to spend the day with.
Will it be Farmer or Exotics? Both of these days include learning how to health check animals, cleaning out enclosures, feeding the animals, making enrichment and of course supervised play time! Plus you’ll also receive an activity booklet and signed certificate at the end of the day!
