    What a fun venture!!! Oh my god Todd took us around on a little jeep around the farm from exhibit to exhibit! I scratched tortoises backs, fed emus, cuddled a baby pig, and loved on darling little capybaras!!! Todd was such a great host and tour guide, so passionate about the animals, and overall so inviting! Absolutely worth the trip!!!

    Entrance (:

    We took our daughter to see the capybaras and wallabies! One of the best experiences! Great service all around! 10/10 recommend!!

    Went and did the VIP tour. It's well worth the extra expense to get to experience all of the animals up close and personal. The guide was very passionate about the animals and his knowledge was great giving us not only a great experience learning about each animal.

    Timberview Farmstead opened in March of 2024, and this was my first. I am filled with joy and can…read moreguarantee I will be back and in the meantime, sharing this gem with my friends and neighbors! Timberview will be a huge establishment; I wish them the best of luck as they continue to grow! Typically, there are 30 - 40 people who come to the events. They also do field trip days where they have 120 kids at a time doing all the fun activities and meeting the animals. My friend and I got lucky to have a near private tour with us and grandparents with their grandkids. Seth was kind enough to show us all around, teach us all about the animals and this wonderful place. Normally, it is more free roam. The summer schedule runs as follows: Daily Farm Schedule 10:15 AM Rabbit Races at the Small Animal Barn 10:45 AM Petting Tables at the Small Animal Barn 11:15 AM Sheep and Goat Walk Meet in front of the Large Animal Barn 12:15 PM Hold the Chickens at the Poultry Barn 1:00 PM Daily Theme Activity Each day is a different activity, and those are: TEA PARTY TUESDAYS Join us for afternoon tea with the bunnies! WATER WEDNESDAYS Bathe the goats, water the plants, and feed the ducks! TAKE HOME THURSDAYS Come pick up a farm activity to bring home! FISHING FRIDAYS Pick up a pole and head to boathouse! I loved the rabbit races. Getting to pick your rabbit, and then they put on race music for the bunnies to get excited and run. It is so fun. Reese and Waffles won our races, so you can try those two bunnies for your races. They did let us know two bunnies that we could not pick because they just had babies or were pregnant. They take good care of their animals here! Another activity that we thoroughly enjoyed was the goat and sheep walk. It unlocked a new joy for me. Seeing kids walk a goat or sheep. There is nothing quite like it! One child walked the mama goat, and the baby followed the whole way. One sheep (Ana) decided she did not want to go for a walk and dug her heels in the ground, so they let her go out to the pasture. Again, nothing is forced. If the animal doesn't want to or is tired, they get a pass. I can't wait for their fall activities! They plan to be open every Saturday in October and will have pumpkins and likely a small hay maze. December plans are unknown, but they may also be open on Saturdays, so follow their Facebook page and website for details to come. In the future, they hope to have a farmers market, coffee shop, and eventually a restaurant. Right now, their produce is sold to Tacos Oasis, a restaurant down the road and a catering company. We got to see them harvesting microgreens during the visit. Seth taught us about aquaponics, a method of growing lettuce in water from fish, which combines hydroponics with raising fish in tanks. About 20 employees work here, and the 5 or so that we got to interact with were welcoming and honestly, heartwarming to chat with. Seth obviously stands out because he walked around with us for two hours, but also T. She is a midwife who is changing up careers and a very pleasant person to chat with about the animals. The last thing I'll note. For being a farm, it is shocking how clean this place is! They do a great job keeping the floors clean. Ample hand washing stations and a few bathrooms in some buildings. The one thing I found missing was a diaper changer. It's possible they have one, but just not in the rabbit barn bathroom. Come enjoy, stay as long as you can, and definitely become a member to get the most joy from this place! Pack water, snacks, and a full lunch so you and the kids can stay happy during your visit. You can also visit Taco Oasis down the road afterward like we did! Check out all my pictures for detailed captions on cool things we saw.

There was a lot of flies at the truck with Santa in it which everyone wanted to take photos in so that was a bit gross but short of that it was a very enjoyable experience. My two year old went on their little train ride which was hilarious since she wasn't expecting that and I'm not sure I was either lol. She came back white knuckled and happy so it was fine. Lots of smoke from the fire pit made it hard to really smell any of the trees. It does add a nice touch to the place though and keeps folks warm which is a plus on these cooler December days. Prices on trees were quite fair (they are precut only this and possibly next year for many they have but still worth purchasing) and the one we got was perfect though they didn't trim the bottom as I asked them to do so we had to do that at home which was not anticipated but we got it done. I look forward to coming here next year. I usually go to Calloways and I wanted to find a local smaller, less commercial place to get my trees from and this one fits the bill. Next time I will be asking that they secure our tree since 380 is a nightmare when it's not gridlock traffic and you're trying to go 50mph down a windy road lol.

Ruby Creek Family Farm was the perfect spot. It was only a 20 minute drive from north Fort Worth. You have to sign a waiver at the entrance. For admission, it's $12 per person. Free for 24 months and younger. They take either cash or card. No wait line to get in on a Sunday afternoon for us. The parking is free, and they have a huge lot. It's a short walk from the parking lot to the farm. I love that everything was spaced out from the photo-op areas to the play structures. Let's just say I had a great time making the entire family take cute photos with pumpkins. My son had a blast going up and down the slide. He also enjoyed running on the large jump pad. The live music in the background really set the mood. We didn't pay extra for the hayride. If the kiddos had more stamina, we would have stayed a little longer to look at the farm animals and checkout the food. Overall, we had a great time. Beautiful fall photos were captured, and precious memories were made.

Free parking and the food is great and at a good price. Definitely bring hand sanitizers and wear something that keeps you and the kids cool!

    What an awesome deal. During 2020 COVID hell, this was the happiest day we've had in ... a while…read more I saw All About Animals somewhat randomly on Groupon, and it piqued my interest immediately. We'd been trying to figure out what to do for both kids' birthdays this summer with the no-normal-parties bummer going on. Maybe we could do a masked-up animal show n tell on the back patio...? So I called Cindi (owner of All About Animals) after reading up on her website. She was generally doing online only stuff and was NOT doing birthday parties. I totally understood, I said - we weren't about to have a bunch of kids over right now. But would she do a "private" show n tell for just our 4-person family? She would. Score! Outdoors is too hot for some of the animals during the Texas summer, so we set up inside, with a table for her and 4 chairs facing the table, about 8-10' away. The agreement was she'd be masked up the entire time and so would we. She also left her shoes at the door, which we didn't even ask her to do. The kids loved it. We loved it. It was... just perfect. We picked 10 critters and geared it towards ones we could touch and often hold. The pictures don't show all 10, but dude... it was just awesome. Fun AND highly educational. If you're an animal person AND can be safe and respectful during this time, I HIGHLY recommend this. The kids were immediately asking when the next time Ms Cindi could come over again with her animals. Just... awesome!
