History of Old Mac Donald's Farm

In 1991 Old Macdonald’s Farm opened its gates for the first time, brought to life through the efforts of Don Allen and Susanne Wilkerson. Founded on the joys of bringing kids and adults alike into contact with animals they may not see on a regular basis and escaping from the hustle and bustle of city life. A goal that they continue to strive towards even today 30 years later! From traditional farm animals like goats and horses, to the more exotic like a coatimunide or peacocks. All have come through their gates and brought smiles to our visitors faces.

We have 12 petting zoo barns, train ride, pony rides, swimming pool, and many other activities for your enjoyment. There are plenty of playgrounds, Fort Apache, and an Indian Village. The children will certainly enjoy the “wavy slides” and the volleyball area is great for older children and adults. There is a Hay Barn for old fashion fun and a Sand Mountain complete with sand toys.

Our petting zoo barns will allow the children hands on contact with a wide variety of farm animals including goats, sheep, cows, and pigs. Our exotic animals include deer, llamas, emus, and a tortoise. Feed may be purchased for the animals for $2.00 per bag. You are welcome to bring your own bread to feed the ducks in the duck pond.  Please call ahead and we will reserve a covered gazebo for groups and parties. We have different size gazebos to accommodate small birthday parties, medium sized church outings, and even large company picnics. All groups and families are welcome to pack their own picnic lunches or we have a concession stand open every operating day for food, drinks, ice cream, disposable cameras, and t-shirts.

From our family to yours, we can’t wait for you to come visit us! Get your camera, stock up on sunscreen and come have a great day with our loveable animals.
