Farm Animals Petting Zoo
The Farm Animals Petting Zoo is our most classic package filled with 20 animals total, of which include an alpaca, a potbelly pig, a tortoise, goats, sheep, chickens, ducks, and bunnies.
We will have two of our trusted animal handlers accompany the animals and take care of all setup and clean-up duties within the petting zoo. We do provide all the equipment needed, such as fencing, food, and water, as well as a hand sanitizing booth. This program is a great go-to, whether we are visiting one class or the whole school!

In-Person Educational Programs for Classroom
​
​
Throughout the years we are in constant awe with our animal ambassador team. Whether it's sparking wonder and curiosity in minds both young and old, or inspiring a passion for knowledge. Our in-person educational programs are designed to spark that curisoiy while meeting curriculum standards! We teach in classroom sizes of smaller. We appreate the attention we are able to give each student when we are in smaller groups, answering individual questions and ideas, because fostering those "why's" can continues on to indipendent learing after we have left. For this reason, we do not do assemblies. We hope to expose the students to a side of nature they may not have had a chance to be up close to. During programs each student will get opportunities to hold an animal "as a team" (with our help), pet gently, or look up close. We also provide interesting bio-facts to aid in learning. A 30 minute session will visit with 2-3 animals. A 60 minute session will visit with 4-5 animals. Our educational programs can include reptiles, amphibians, mammals, birds, and insects.
