Description
Excellent Petting Zoo
Wide Range of animals including cows, sheep, zebras, camels, kangaroos, monkeys, and much more. There's also a bird atrium you can go into with tons of parakeets; if you stick out your hand with food, they'll land on your hands and arms.
There's buckets of feed for sale for $5, and bottles of milk (for the sheep and goats), for $2.
There are picnic tables outside that you can use to eat or bring a game to play. There are no air conditioned seating areas, and little shade so it can get hot out in the summer.
There's a farmers market next door where you can pick up some fresh fruit to eat at the picnic tables.
Only 40 minutes from the 5 Towns and WELL WORTH it.
