“We took my 2yo son here to mainly ride the pony, but we figured he would love seeing and feeding all of the animals. We had a great time! It is free to visit 9am-1pm M-Sat. Park in the grass/ dirt off the driveway. Bring your own food for the animals (cereal, carrots, apples, bananas etc). This farm is basically the big backyard of a nice woman’s house. She has goats, pigs, chickens, horses, ponies, donkeys, a turkey, ducks, tortoises, a cow, guinea pigs and bunnies. Pony rides are $5 and she prefers if you call ahead so she can make sure she has someone there to assist. She takes cash and there’s digital payment options as well. Overall it was a very casual visit, but really awesome especially for animal lovers! We were able to hold the bunnies and guinea pigs, pet the pigs and most of the other animals, hand fed the goats and the cow. There’s also some weathered play houses in the back for the kids (Step2 style play houses and a sand box). We will definitely be back!”

“What an nice farm & it was by donation versus others that charge so much. My 4 grandkids from TN under the age of 10 visited this petting animal farm & rode a pony for $5, each child. We brought apples, carrots, lettuce to feed the animals …a 90 minutes awesome experience, I donated $100 when we entered but added $60 tip to helpers plus the rides…. Well worth every penny. They were so friendly & it was so clean.. Impressive!!! 5 stars .. thank you”

“I haven’t been here yet but I wanted to thank you so much for your help with my pig she was sick and I could not find a local vet and you took the time to talk with me and re assure me I was doing things right and gave me some useful advice and thankfully she is on the mend. I will be up to thank you in person and have a fun farm day soon when miss Pepa is 100% . But in the meantime thank you thank thank you!!!”

“I wouldn't take your children here. They don't vaccinate their animals and then I guess the employee (possibly owner) will morph into an absurd Karen when your child gets bit, because obviously *insert condescending laughing* your child should know better than to try and feed an animal. Zero signs not to feed or touch BTW, also you won't need to sign any sort of liability waiver. Maybe the advertisement of "bring your own carrots and apples to feed the animals" means something different to everyone else? To me, it means feed the animals. But ah yes, you're right Karen, it's unreasonable to allow the kids (15 years old) to attempt to feed an animal....at a place....that wants you to feed...the animals. Cue expensive Rabies vaccination for the girl plus other Injections. Worry not Cox Farm Karen, you've been reported for failing to vaccinate your animals when you're allowing rhe general publics CHILDREN to interact with animals that aren't vaccinated for fatal diseases. Now don't get me wrong, animals bite. BUT it's not only negligent it's incomprehensibly reckless not to have the animals VACCINATED.”
