We've taken our toddler here a couple of times and he has a great deal of fun. Besides the farm zoo, where you can buy cups of carrots to feed the many varieties of animals - I wouldn't say petting zoo as you are advised to feed the animals only with the plastic shovel and not stick your fingers into the pens - there are several little play houses with play activities (train set, corn cabin, kitchen, grocery store, etc), a playground with a sandpit, and tractor and train rides. The sandpit even has toys like dump trucks - my kid would be perfectly happy to just stay there and call it a day! The condition of everything in the main areas is a little grubby, however. I appreciate that they put out plenty of chairs and benches all around for parents to sit on (cos waiting for your child while they play is an unavoidable part of the game), as well as some picnic tables. Prices are fair and reasonable, and entry for kids under 2 is free. read more

This little farm is super cute and is perfect for families and small children. We have been here a few times, most recently for a birthday party. They have a large variety of animals that the kids can feed (they get a bucket of carrots) and there are lots of small areas to play. But the big hit with our family is the playground and sand pit with diggers and toys. My kids could stay there all day. It's a good way to spend a local day. read more

I loved it here!! First time and it was so much fun. Such a great place for the family! Staff were so awesome. Went there for a birthday party and it was so much fun. We went on tractor trailer ride. Strollers are not allowed on tractor trailer. They have designated spaces for your strollers. We were all given a cup of carrots with a mini shovel to feed the animals. Important feed the animals with the shovel- there is no hand feeding. Staff made sure we were aware of this for the safety of us and their animals. So many cute animals. Then we had a chance to go on a mini train. Afterwards we went to grab a pumpkin to decorate. You should def come with your family. It was such a great time! read more

Very nice people. I arrived at 3:30 and was not aware that they had closed at 2:30. The man asked what I had (was 150 lbs of paper) and said to back up the car. So nice that they didn't make me return. Their rate is $.75 per lb. Definitely will use them again read more

A nice way to spend an hour or so with a 1.5 year old! There is an impressive amount of animals. Pretty much every farm animal that you could imagine, plus some other fun animals like llamas and even a zebra. Tickets are $10 PP for ages two and up, and you can also buy a small or large cup filled with carrots to feed the animals. Don't expect much in the way of fall fun (apples, pumpkins, etc). This is mainly to see animals, and I thought it was a nice change up from some of the usual farms. There is also a large playground area and a sandbox, and we even noticed some birthday parties going on. Sun High in Randolph also has animals and more of the 'fall fun' stuff, but here you'll see at least 3x as many animals and you can feed them. There is a BBQ food concession if you want any food / drinks, but otherwise there isn't much in the way of food. My daughter loves animals, so this was a fun and different thing to check out locally. I'm looking forward to bringing her back this summer when she'll probably be a little more excited to feed the animals. read more

What a great way to spend time with the family and kids. One of our good friends introduced us to this farm, and we are so glad we came here. Apart from feeding the animals, there is small kids play area and a tractor ride. Overall everybody in our group liked it, and even though we visited over the weekend, though the place was busy but it was not super crowded. I'd highly recommend this spot. read more

Came for the drive through farm, which is happening on Sundays during the COVID period. Kids had a lot of fun feeding the different animals from the car. At $15 for a car full, I thought that it was great value. Also they allow you to bring your own carrots for the drive through so you don't need to buy them there (note on other days you do need to purchase the carrots from the farm). The entire path is single lane, so does progress a little slowly. However it actually was not too bad, and this gave the kids a good amount of time with each group of animals. The path did get fairly close to some of the animals at times (so close that someone with longer arms could probably reach out and touch them). Animals were typically willing to get close for the food. Note that the entire trip takes around 20min, so you can do it multiple times within the hour window. We ended up doing it twice, which we felt was sufficient. read more

It's was a beautiful day and the place was amazing with all the animals. Went there with my favorite people. Will definitely be coming back

It is a great place but I am really worried about the COVID spread. When I entered I was greeted by two females who told me that " maks are not needed inside, they only recommend social distancing" Its scary as there are no sanitizer stations or hand washing stations inside. I feel masks should be mandated whatsoever given the pandemic. We did a walk around tour (5$ per person) you can buy carrot feed n shovel for 2.50$ on enterance and train ride (3$ each) . Animals are spaced well and will eat . Lovely place for toddler and families. But please take necessary precautions as COVId cases are on rise again read more

Thank you Brookhollow's Barnyard for giving us a social distance experience that my family and I truly enjoyed!! Purchased a ticket online. Only $10. Don't forget to tip! One ticket per vehicle. Once it's purchased you must print your ticket and upon arrival place it on your dashboard so they can mark you in. The two ladies at the gate were extremely friendly as they greeted us and explained the rules. Most important rule to all is to stay in the vehicle! You are allowed to feed the animals by throwing them carrots only! You can find animals left and right so don't be upset when you first enter and see the first stop of animals to the right. Now, keep in mind this isn't a drive through farm all year round. These people went above and beyond to make it happen. With that said the drive isn't a mile long. But it's worth the drive! The best part, you can go back around as many times as you please within your purchased hour frame. This Barnyard has truly won me over for showing their care for the people and all of their animals. I look forward to coming back! read more

We took our toddler here for a few hours of fun and learning - they only sell a handful of tickets each spot, so it's easy to rest easy knowing it won't be crowded. We were able to feed the animals using a pail and shovel (purchased there) and you can bring the same pail back to reuse for future visits! They have a big variety of animals: from llamas, goats, horses and cows to little chickens, pigs, and a gorgeous peacock that knows hes the center of attention! The staff there is kind and friendly - there are limited staff there, so you have to speak with the person at the front entrance if you need something. Make sure to bring hand wipes for before and after interactions (there is a small portapotty, but obviously no hand washing station, etc). We can't wait to return and check out the pumpkin patch around the corner! read more

My wife and 15 month old daughter went here yesterday and had a blast!! The owner was extremely hospitable. Covid safe. Great value. read more

Such a fun experience at Brookhollow's today! Inexpensive entrance fee that we were able to purchase online the day before and then for a few more dollars you can buy shaved carrots to feed the animals. The price includes a little bucket and shovel with their logo on it that is yours to keep! So many animals to feed there-- goats, alpacas, bunnies, sheep, pigs, ponies. Beautiful peacocks and geese were there too! We felt comfortable enough being socially distant and wearing masks. The barn is big enough were we didn't get close to anyone except the animals and fed all of them with the shovel that was provided. There was a cute goat that was roaming free around the barn that was so happy to gobble up some carrots. We paid extra for a tractor ride which was a lot of fun. We got to see the entire farm with a nice tour. Only two families were on the tractor, so we felt totally comfortable since we were more than 6ft away. I highly recommend this barn for kids of all ages! I enjoyed it just as much as my little guy! read more

So to start off, the rating is adjusted given the social distancing requirements currently in effect. The drive through is cozy and you can probably go through 3-4x before you get bored. Tossing carrots is not as easy as you would think, given the plethora of carrots on the ground just in front of the fences (I rang the crossbar a few times myself). Its just enough to see to justify the price (even on the weekend) and to amuse the little ones who've been couped up for months now. The attendant (and only person we had contact with) was friendly and set the tone for the experience. Would definitely consider coming back in the future when (hopefully) you can walk around and interact with the animals outside of the drive through environment. read more

Great time here the other day. It costs $5pp to get in, plus we brought our refillable bucket and got carrots for the animals for $1. We could easily spend a whole morning or afternoon here with our toddler. (Bring your own food/snacks and hope nobody needs the bathroom-port a potty only). Her favorite part of the day was digging in the sand pits. Can't wait to come back again this summer! read more

I was excited to visit this spot with my toddler. However, it is filthy. The play areas are all so dirty & neglected. The animals do not appear to be well cared for. Many appeared emaciated which was very very disturbing. I sincerely hope they are being cared for & fed properly as it did not appear that way. I would not patronize this spot again. read more

My son (20months) has the greatest time here!! We were here for about 2 hours and definately could have stayed longer if I had brought sunscreen with us! Save the bucket to refill with a discount at your next visit ! Bring snacks with you as here are some places to stop and snack- We will definately be back! There is also a cute area for parties so I will look into that too. read more

The owner Tina is INCREDIBLY rude! She is "too busy" to answer your questions and then harasses you to insult how "many" questions you've asked. She also told us that we are NOT welcome to her farm and would be better off elsewhere. Bring your business elsewhere, and Tina - learn to treat your customers with respect! Disgusting behavior from the owner, she owes a huge apology!!!! read more

My family and I love this place. The place is cheap and you can kill a lot of time. There is a bunch of different animals here. Llamas, donkey, horses, pigs, goats, peacocks, chickens. They have a little train that my son loves as well as a tractor ride. There are also seasonal things like a Pumpkin Patch, I think a Zombie Paintball, and some other stuff... It is pretty cheap per person and you buy a bucket once and then you bring it back. They charge $1 to fill up the bucket with food to feed the animals. They offer a seasonal pass too. read more

I'm not quite sure what you're getting here that's not better on other farms in the area. It's pretty pricey, especially their outrageous pumpkin prices. You're essentially paying to take a ride on a trailer in a pretty unimpressive farm. They offer no food or beverage. There's no country store or anything of that ilk. The corn maze is pretty good. Kids older than 8 will be bored quickly. read more

Really adorable place. You pay a few dollars for a little bucket & scoop and carrots that you can feed the animals. Lots of goats, mini horses, pigs, llamas. Kids had a ton of fun running around. Staff was very nice, and while each timed entrance is 90 minutes, that was plenty of time before you're ready to head out. Definitely recommend for a summer outing! read more

This owner of this place is just awful. We had our sons birthday party here and I won't be returning after our experience. We had been here before for the day a few years ago and we thought it was so cute and fun but that day we didn't deal with the owner. This time we were constantly being reprimanded by this angry and hostile woman. We paid to have a party there for our son. First of all there are no signs to tell you where to park. When my in laws from out of state parked in the wrong section the owner marched up to them and told them to move immedietly. They were on the opposite side of the farm where another party was happening and she told them they couldnt park there and had to find the other entrance. When we showed up the owner wasnt around and the girl at the desk (it was her first day) wasnt sure when she'd be back. She was so sweet but seemed to not have been given any information from the owner about what was happening that day. (No fault of her own) When the owner did arrive to give us our wristbands she made a nasty comment about us being early (it said in the contract I signed for the party we were welcome to start the party in the farm before our alloted time) When everyone arrived and went inside to feed the animals and play in the playhouses we were greeted with more hostility. One of the houses had a bin of sand that was there before we arrived. When she saw it she marched in and aggressively said to 2 and 3 years olds that sand wasnt allowed in there. They hadnt even noticed the bin of sand. When the moms said it wasnt them she said "i don't care who did it. I'm telling you it cant be in here!) then she grabbed it and angrily stormed off. As I was leaving I asked if I could keep the wristbands that i had paid for but didn't use and come back another day to use them. She said "Nope" and took them from me. The kids had a great time and I just keep trying to remember that's all that matters, but unfortunately we won't be returning. It's so sad to see such an angry person running a place for kids. Also, be prepared for no sinks for washing hands. They just have porta potties and antibacterial gel. read more

Verry short drive but an amaxing experience. People verry friendly, and the animals are close. My kids had the best experience, specially my authistic daughter. Loved the place. read more

What a wonderful time at Brookhollow's today with my family. I have been very cautious going anywhere since covid, but I liked the way this farm structured a certain amount of tickets per session. The admission was only $5 per person and allowed 1.5 hr of exploration. It was $4 for a pail of carrots to feed the animals. You then got to keep the pail and refills are only $1. They had 30 minute gaps between sessions to clean and wipe down the kids play space. Porter potty was right outside entrance and was as clean as one could be. Hand sanitizer is available all around the farm, but there is no water/sink. I took a bottle of soap from home to leave in my car and just had everyone wash their hands with soap and water bottles before we loaded up to leave. They also have picnic tables that you can eat at. While they do not offer food for purchase, they did not check bags or say no food for people. They do say no outside food for animals. We will definitely be back :) read more

Great idea if it was exacuted properly. This is basically the owners backyard that your paying $5 pp to play with dirty & broken toys you probably already have. Any child under 7 would love this place because they just see toys & playhouses. They don't see the gorgeous Peacocks stuck in a 10x10 cage - they just see feathers. ( I've always seen them roam free at any other farm/zoo). No petting zoo, you can't even try to pet them thru the cage. You have to use a shovel to feed them. Great motor skill builder for anyone under 2 but also easy way to frustrate the child. The owner was the train driver. She was a scary driver and it was a very small loop(don't waste your money). This was my 1st time with my 1st grandchild and I won't be going back. read more

Super cheap and convenient !! Staff was nice and they have plenty of others thing for all ages

My daughter and I love this place. She loves to get a bucket of carrots and feed the animals, play on the equipment, in the sandboxes and houses. She also love to take a hayride and ride the train. It's a great place for little people. And the staff are friendly. My youngest will go for the first time this year and I can't wait to see how she loves it! I know she will. read more

Went here for the past two years to get a Christmas tree. They have two different farms within a mile of each other in same road. This year we went to the farm without the shed and liked the variety of trees more and the fact it is less of a haul to your car. Kids working there are super friendly and helpful. Tree price is very reasonable, around $60 for a beautiful blue spruce. read more

We were not impressed. It's $5 a person to essentially walk around in someone's back pasture. There wasn't a clearly marked entrance in which to pay. There was no one around to take payment. It wasn't until a woman sitting in a camp chair started shouting "did you pay?! You have to pay!" that we even knew admission was required. There are pens of animals and little playhouses scattered about with dirty old toys in them. Not worth $15. We will brave the crowds and go to Alstede Farms instead. Better organized and you don't have to pay to feed the animals. And I don't think anyone has ever shouted at me. read more

This place would be amazing if they cleaned it up. I would not let my child play in any of the play areas. The condition was horrible. The staff is not concerned on cleanliness what so ever. Dust mites, ants, beehives, tons of dirt covering the toys. I understand that it is a barn but if you cater towards kids, I would expect more. read more

Great place for kids. Very large petting farm. Great for fall activities. The staff was very helpful. The only downside is they don't have a store or food stand. Would have been nice to buy cider or snacks especially for the kids. read more

The staff is very rude and spent an hour yelling at us about parking in the wrong parking lot. Been to the Barnyard when visiting family in the past, never again. Paid for entry and ended up leaving because the family was so upset. You people should not be running a family place. Bad Barnyard...BAD read more

Very disgusted at the conditions of the animals. There are rabbits kept in small cages outside with moldy water bottles, knots in their hair, poop stuck to their bums, and some looked like they had eye infections. The chickens live in a puddle of mud, and the many other animals have small pens with no grass. I left feeling very upset. I would not support this business. read more

This place is SO cute! My son absolutely loved it. They sell a bucket of carrots and a shovel for $5 to feed the animals. If you bring it back another time, they charge $1 for just carrots. It's a very fun activity for kids. I highly recommend it. read more

This is the best place on earth!! Great for the whole family especially with young children. The farm is relaxing, with lots of little animals for kids to feed. I highly recommend buying the $4 bucket and you can come back again and again for feeding ($1) in the future. It is a cute place with picnic tables, sand boxes, tractors, train sets and of course the farm animals! I didn't want to leave (and neither did my son). Just a warning they do not sell food (so bring your own picnic), and I wish they have a restroom (they have 2 porter potties). But overall an Amazing place to spend the afternoon for just $5 entrance fee. Lots of parking as well. read more

Went to Brookhollow's Barnyard with my family and had an amazing time. My daughter loved playing in all the play houses and feeding the animals. We spent hours here in all the little play activities and areas. Well worth the money and easy parking. read more

Came here with my 2 and 4 year olds and their grandfather. We got a bucket of carrots and fed the goats, alpaca, horses, and rabbits. My girls get a little scared of big animals, so it was nice how firmly behind fences all the animals were and how you feed them with a little shovel. Just hold onto your shovel tight as you feed, the horse grabbed ours and we almost didn't get it back! The rabbits were the only animal that didn't intimidate my kids, so that was nice to see them so confidently feeding them and feeling proud of themselves. They also loved the sandbox and the really well-constructed playhouse. People mention cleanliness...it's about as clean as I would expect a farm to be. It's a farm. It would be nice if there was running water to wash hands and a real toilet. but alas, it is a farm. The kids had an amazing time and can't stop talking about it, so that's what matters most to me. read more

My daughter and I spent a few hours there yesterday. This place gets better and better every year. What a wonderful place to let the kids feed animals, run free outside & have a great day. It's also very reasonably priced. I highly recommend it! read more

We've been coming here every year since it opened many years ago. We came yesterday for our annual visit. My daughter is 12 now and we still love it. The cost never went up, $5 to get in and $1 for refill of carrots (leave your buckets in the car). The owner always been kind to us, never rude. She practically runs the farm by herself. Which is a lot of work. You can take your time or just stop by for an hour. I would recommend going on a nice, cool day. There's not that much shade. The scenery is beautiful and peaceful. Enjoy!! read more
