The farm is a firm favourite with children who love getting up close to the chickens, pigs, sheep and cows along the farm trail and meeting the ponies, goats, barn owls and other familiar friends in the pet barn. Interpretation rooms encourage them to learn about the animals along the way and there are daily demonstrations from the farm rangers as well as the seasonal spectacles of the lambing and shearing.
