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.

My wife and I just left our friends daughters birthday party. The owner was obnoxious about rushing the party along with over an hour left on the clock, because she had other plans. Her failure to observe the IN WRITING reservation times were the wet blanket on the day. Obnoxious hand gestures telling us to "move it along" and "start wrapping it up" were uncalled for. Her argumentative attitude and on the spot price gouging had the birthday girls mom so stressed, that she couldn't even enjoy the moment. It was very unfortunate to have to see this, as so much effort was put into the party. Other issues include their dogs defecting on the trip hazard astroturf where the kids were playing , and minimal effort to clean it up. I know its a "farm" but there are places that should remain clean. The bathroom situation, or lack thereof, was not pleasant. Just a grungy pota-potty far away from the party area. There was no refrigerator to help with keeping the cake from melting in the Florida heat while being devoured by the incredible amount of flies swarming around. It's a shame, as this could be an amazing venue... BUYER BEWARE!

LunaSea Alpaca Farm is a heartwarming animal encounter experience. Located in Clermont, Florida, 25…read moremiles west of Orlando, guided tours around the grounds are 90 minutes long with plenty of chances to interact and feed alpacas for just $20 a person. The owner of the farm, Mr. King, leads the tours imparting valuable insights into alpaca life and what roles alpacas play being part of the camelid species. The tour begins with brief introductions while attendees feed the farm's chickens. Next, the tour enters a fenced in enclosure and guests form a circle. The juvenile alpacas are familiar with these procedures and eagerly approach and eat from the palms of your hands. Another worthwhile moment is having visitors being introduced to an adult llama. Mr. King starts with a quick demonstration and then all participants take turns mouth-to-mouth feeding the llama. It feels rewarding accepting playful nibbles from such a docile animal. One of the better highlights is having the opportunity to hug a baby alpaca. It's a great way to end the encounter on such an uplifting note. Overall, LunaSea Alpaca Farm is a charming interactive experience where visitors become better acquainted with alpacas. Tours are highly engaging and can make for lasting memories.

Super cute, local, alpaca farm that hosts tour, painting sessions and yoga with alpacas!…read more We saw an advertisement on Instagram for painting with Alpacas and thought it would be a fun weekend outing. Painting session was $50 and includes all your paint, brushes, design, treats to feed the alpacas and 1 non-alcoholic beverage. Start time was 10:30am on a Sunday and you start off with a basic outline of an alpaca extra station. Then the instructor takes you through how to fill in the background and the llama and give you pointers along the way. They have you paint your background first before they allow the alpaca to come in and wander around, which is great planning as the minute the alpacas were introduced into the area. The painting was occurring in everybody was distracted by all the cuteness. You are welcome to get up throughout the session to interact with alpacas and give them treats, which was great because I found myself drawing inspiration from some of their coloring to incorporate into my painting. We had an excellent time and definitely look forward to going back for some of the seasonal events in totality, the entire session was roughly about two hours

Not only is the location a perfect portal to a different type of Florida , but the wagons are all the way in the back so it's perfect privacy. There's also a tent outside to sit and watch pigs take a bath in the fountain. The wagon room we got was the Piggies room! Perfect decor and amenities inside(towels/shampoo/conditioner/tissues/coffee mugs /even games!) Huge bathroom with incredible shower.There is ac but we spent most of the time with the screen door and bathroom window open & it felt great. Included inside:mini fridge, toaster, coffee/tea (included),microwave and a small heater. Plenty of plugs to charge & a full length mirror. We love that there was no tv because we got to watch highland cows instead !! We also got to sleep to rain and it was so peaceful especially waking up every morning to new friends like pigs and sheep! We also saw: 4 highland cows!! , 2 different types of pigs, a family of sheep (+Anya the sassiest girl), cats, dogs, goats, turkeys (that like hugs but scared meee), guinea fowls, chickens and hens, mini horses and a peacock that sounds like Kevin from UP in the nighttime !! All the staff were super friendly including miss Elaine! Truly an incredible place to visit and get to feed pigs all day.

What an amazing little gem of a place. It's the kind of roadside attraction reminiscent of old Florida, but that history hasn't managed to forget. Thank goodness! This is a great attraction for the whole family. Lots of animals, play areas for the kids, and a ride around the farm in a monster truck/bus to view old citrus groves and search for Bigfoot. For me, the best part was the opportunity to interact with Lemurs and Capybaras. This was the best part of visit! Don't pay those absurd prices for those 'Capybara Cafes' popping up where $100 get you coffee in a room with them. Here, for a fraction of the cost, you get up close contact and interaction. The animal interactions fill up quickly, so get there early.

We also took a ride on the monster truck, which was a little disappointing as it was just a ride around the farm and we thought it was very pricey.

I would definitely go back again, but maybe on a cooler day.
