(Only for children under 40ish lbs.). Don't expect an elaborate set up. This has been put together by the property owner to help shelter a variety of different animals. (Think someone's very large back yard..) We fed and interacted with goats, ducks, geese, chickens, rabbits, pigs, llamas, turkeys, peacocks, horses, and a donkey. We spent roughly 1-1.5 hrs there and the owner gave the kids popsicles before leaving. The kids and I had a great time and it was such an easy excursion. All in all money well spent and for a great cause. Tip- you pull into a dirt driveway. Forget about bringing your sports car. You'll bottom out at the entrance. Any regular car is fine.

Our last day in Orlando and we went to one of MY Favorite Places: Gatorland!…read more We first visited this Gator Sanctuary with our son, Mathew when he was 3 years old and we all loved it. Gatorland was started in 1949 by Owen Goodwin as a 1/2 day Family Attraction. It has since grown and now the Park has over 100+ Gators including a few albino's. Since I last visited the Park in 2018, Gatorland has added a Zipline with 5 lines which zip over Gators. This was an absolute MUST DO! The 2nd favorite thing I LOVE doing, is feeding the parakeets aka budgies You can purchase a bundle of popsicle sticks with peanut butter at one end rolled in bird seed. The Birds will flock to You and start eating. You can actually feel their "tootsies" on your skin and they are very warm. You MUST shuffle you feet to avoid stepping on the little ones who are pecking away at the dropped birdseed on the floor. My 3rd favorite thing is feeding the Gators. You can purchase Turkey hotdogs, break them into pieces and toss them to the Gators! They come swimming up to you to be fed. How COOL! My next favorite is the Gator Show which involves completely harmless Gator: wrestling. Basically the Trainer gently straddles the Gator and tips his chin under his. Be sure to come hungry as they have a cafe which serves, you guessed it: Gator bites/nuggets. They are SO yummy!Okay by now, you have figured it out: I LOVE the entire Park and highly recommend that if you visit Orlando, add Gatorland with Ziplining to your Vacay Adventure, you won't regret it!

Our favorite area were the crocs - spent a lot of our time watching them. The show we saw was great and we were able to get photos with the gator after. There's also many other animals to see like farm and birds! Staff were all friendly and knowledgeable. Train ride was fun, relaxing, and we got to see even more of the park. Highly recommend!

The event was very organized. They guided us on where to park, welcomed us, and explained the events. We were offered homemade lemonade. The farm is well kept and all the animals are thriving. You can tell they are well loved. The baby goats were absolutely adorable. We sat in a circle on hay bales in a fenced in play area. We each got to give a baby goat a bottle and fed them greens. We got plenty of time to feed and pet the goats. Farmer Rick gave us a tour and educated us on the animals and their care. We got to see the adult goats, pigs, chickens, and turkeys. We got to see the goats again before leaving. We had the opportunity to shop their products including eggs and goat soap. This was such a fun event and I loved supporting a local farm. This is a great date or team building event!

The family who runs this farm, really indeed loves the animals, ALL of the animals, they don't just have goats, they have hogs and chickens and other animals. It's such a little place but filled with so much fun! I went here on a trip and it was great. We were greeted warmly, it's literally in a neighborhood right on land, it's near houses. The price was super cheap and so worth it. They even have a little stand and sell things I bought goat soap. The session itself was so great, we had a yoga instructor and the baby goats were released to us, we fed them and then we had the session as they jumped on us, made us smile and we got cuddles here and there. I was lucky to be able to get a lot of love from the baby goats who were just a few days old. It was the sweetest thing ever. It was a blast and I would do this again for sure! I can't even explain how great of an experience it was. It brought so much joy to me seeing the baby goats.

The drive was a little ways from Orlando but worth every mile. I really enjoyed feeding the goats and cuddling them. There is limited bottle feeding so make sure to book early on the website and bring cash if you want to purchase additional feed as I lost cell service. The young ladies here were the sweetest, very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. I'm convinced that a couple baby goats are definitely in my future.

My friend took me on the best birthday adventure at Bambi's Mini Petting Farm. It was a surprise…read moreand when we pulled up I saw goats, sheep, donkeys and highland cows. I can't think of anything that is more fun than spending an hour with two different capybara babies. Mango and Kiwi. On the way in we petted the camels. They came right up to the fence and stuck their large heads out. They were seeking attention because they very used to being petted. We were startled when one made a loud guttural braying sound. The owner explained they were letting us know they want carrots. We had about 20-25 minutes with each capybara so all together the encounter was an hour. We got a plate of raw sweet potato sticks and romaine lettuce leaves to feed each animal. They were about 4 months old and Mango the male will be about 140 pounds full grown and Kiwi was the runt of a different litter and is expected to be approximately 90 pounds when full grown which is a very small capybara. It was just my friend and me so we spent time petting and feeding them. They love water so their coat was smooth but fur like a beaver. They are in the same family as guinea pigs so they make a similar sound. They have leathery pads on the bottom of their back legs because they can kick like a kangaroo. They like being scratched under their chin and relax so much they fall over and then are disoriented about what just happened. Hilarious. Bambi's Mini Petting Farm has several different types of animal encounters including baby doll sheep and two miniature cows. They had three goats which were having kids the following weekend and you can either tour the farm or select to bottle feed the baby goats. They have plans for a holiday tour and are getting a sloth. Check out their Facebook page for events.

A true connection between children and what's remains of Florida's farm animals. Green Meadows…read morePetting Farm has been an iconic institution for Florida's children over the years. Unfortunately, for most of us who know it was closed ,but it has now reopen at this new location. The new green meadow petting Farm is better than ever updated and supported by Osceola County. They are currently working every day to update it and to bring more attractions and more animals to continue the connection for the next generation.. our recent visit there indicates this very creed that brought us to them many decades ago. I will not elaborate the numerous emotions a parent may have watching their child touch a chicken or learn about a cow or other farm implements and machinery in a safe, clean, environment , but rather tell you go take your child and experience it for yourself. Admission is reasonable, especially for the various things that you could do there with your family any given day of the week. Parking is ample and spaces are wide, not only for your car, but for your children running in their meadows under a clear sky.. Thank you, Green Meadow Farms, especially to your staff for continuing to have the same great attitude ,even after all these years. We will continue to support you through the next generation..

We fed the animals, rode a pony, played in the corn pit and on the playground as well as took a tractor ride. We saw pigs, donkeys, alpacas, and our favorite the bunnies. We were able to do everything we wanted to do in under 2 hours. There are a few photo ops. All employees we encountered were pleasant. We all enjoyed it but I felt it was expensive.

Many were purchased as household pets and, when the owner realized that most exotic pets are not a great idea, needed a new home. You can tell how much this facility loves their animals. This is open only for private tours which is easy to book on their website. I highly recommend a visit to this facility. Of course the high point is petting Penelope the capybara, PJ doesn't much like people as well as petting sloths. But there are also farm animals, Wilbur the pig, goats a donkey, alpaca that you can interact with. They do note that if the animals do not want to interact, they will not force interaction. This shows to me that they are here for animals first and humans to educate. Always beware of any place that will force animal interaction with humans, as it can be very stressful to them. We loved our time and would love to come back again.

It offers a place to grab a drink and a light bite of whatever food tent/truck they have in there that day. HOWEVER, WE WILL NEVER GO BACK. This weekend we were there pre-game and the skies opened up out of no where. With very little overhead coverings offered, everyone scrambled to find a place to take cover. Some of us ended up under the tent on the exit side of where you come into Yard Bar. Squeezing in tight so everyone could for, everyone was being cordial and polite EXCEPT FOR ONE SECURITY GUY. He began screaming at everyone with more four letter words that not. He physically put hands on my brother in law and husband to a point where my niece began crying! They told the guy they would move but he just kept on. There were more kids and families under that tent, and again, everyone was being cordial. He was TOTALLY OUT OF LINE and is a liability to Yard Bar. We will not be returning here ever again and will take our pre-game crowd and patronage somewhere else. It is our understanding this guy has had complaints filed on him before from other people for similar behavior. However, there he stays looking for the next person/family to power trip on.
