The FunSize Farmyard (near Shilo) is a brand new petting zoo offering a hands-on experience for the young in a unique farm like atmosphere. It’s an ideal location for animal lovers of all ages to meet their furry and feathery friends which includes horses, goats, chickens, ducks, quail, guinea pigs, rabbits and a donkey.
They are open 10-5 daily, except Mondays. Currently they are offering 1.5 hour timeslots ( $5pp no petting, or $8pp including petting) throughout that time period. Your time must be booked ahead of your visit, although they encourage people to phone if they are in the area and looking for something to do. There is always the possibility of an opening. The FunSize Farmyard is currently allowing 3 families per session. They hope to be able to increase that as time goes on and they figure out exactly the demands on the business.
In addition to the petting zoo there is a play structure you are welcome to use and a short walking path with hidden Gnomes for the kids to spot. Additional information can be found on their Facebook page here.
