We receive many visitors each day at our petting farm. Most people enjoy feeding the animals and the animals do like the food you bring. However with so many visitors bringing so much food, it is important for animal health and safety to limit the portion sizes. Please keep your food quantity on the small side. It’s better for the animals if you run out of food. Consider that 100 people visit each day, the animals would over eat which would put their health at risk.
Our animal food policy is designed to keep the animals safe. At our discretion, we reserve the right to amend our policy and accept or reject food quantities and types on a case by case basis.
