Down to Earth Farms Petting Zoo

It was an amazing experience especially for the kids. Shane and his team was an excellent hosts!!

This was my first time coming to this farm and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Most of the animals are able to roam freely and interact with the guests.

It's a pretty big farm and your able to feed the animals a mixture of lettuce and carrots. There's also a playground area and small snack bar that sell hot dogs, ice cream and drinks. Admission is free, though they do ask for donations to help keep the farm running.

This is a great place to bring young children.

My son and I have been to the zoo twice this year so far! We LOVE it every time!!! The animals are so tame and most like to be pet and fed with the provided lettuce and carrots! Entry is by donation which is awesome and roasting hotdogs on the fire at the end is a neat idea. Definitely suggest Taking a couple hours in the day and go love up some awesome critters and watch the babies grow! 🥰 photos: the baby emus taken almost exactly 1 month apart and Brand new 4 day old baby goat too!

Great experience and variety of friendly animals. No entry fee but donations are welcomed and definitely worth the drive to the farm.

A hidden jem. Such friendly staff and a great place for kids. Alpacas, a variety of chickens, goats, pigs, horses....they have it all and the views are amazing

Great experience. Kind family-orientated business. Delicious Ice cream and drinks available for purchase.

Came here for the first time with our 18month old. Had no expectations, but wow what a great place! We had a great morning seeing all the animals. You can tell they are all really well cared for and very friendly. We will definitely be going back. Just wish we would have known to bring cash for donations!

Awesome petting zoo/farm. Admission is by donation. Such a variety of animals. We took our 2 grandkids(8 &14 years) and both loved this gem. Baby goats, emu, bunnies,ponys, various poultry and much more. A play area for the kids as well as firepit with several picnic tables to enjoy a hotdog or ice cream/birthday party. Nothing beats the rolling hills and the gorgeous view from just about anywhere on this farm. Well spread out so never felt overly crowded. Would certainly recommend if you are in the GP area.

Had lots of fun. From the moment we parked Mare and foal out grazing to be a welcome committee. Dogs and cats. Quick Wait for a quick welcome talk and info who to feed what.....then off we went with a basket of veggies to feed the animals. I thought maybe to entice them....tho no enticement was needed. The animals were more than happy to come get a snuggle/pet/munch. To the point you had many to choose from. But not enough to be overwhelmed. There was a large variety of free roam animals to visit as well as some penned animals. All animals looked healthy and happy and clean. The space was beautiful. The owner/ operator was funny and accommodating. He really is living the dream.
Remember he runs off donations so please. Be generous. Its a beautiful place to visit.

Awesome place, you can feed the animals, no sent fee for entry, but donations are welcome.

A really nice weekend activity ! All the animals have a great temperament, no worries about being bitten/frightened. Highly recommend checking it out. Entry cost is by donation, which they depend on to run the facility. We gave $20 for two people, and felt we should have given more, considering the value you get with the level of interaction with the animals. Such a cool experience 😊

This place is AMAZING. We took our kids for the first time and had such a blast. You can get right up to the animals and the view is gorgeous. This is one of the greatest gems of Northern Alberta.

Definitely a great place to bring your kids, lots of animals roaming free to interact with that are very friendly and tame. Owners are very nice and the property has a beautiful view of the county.

Amazing variety of animals to pet as well as view. They had a good variety of things at the concession as well. Very friendly excellent place to take children to.

What a great place to visit.. Owner and animals very friendly.
Awesome place for kids and adults.
Picnic area, play area.
I was able to be up close and pet exotic and farm animals and birds..
Thanks Shane for the tour

What a beautiful place!!! The view, the animals, the owners!!!

I had nice experience with zoo.
They were so polite and giving info about animals and rules i like that. They were so neat and clean

An absolutely amazing place. The owner also was amazing explaining how we could pet the animals and a little bit of information about them. By donation so it's nice that families who can't afford a lot can enjoy also. My grandson absolutely loves this place and what better way to learn kindness and compassion than with animals. I strongly recommend if you can donate generously as the owner is really just giving a pay back to the community and people in general.

Love taking my little girls here to kill some time great place always go back every year

Such a great place to bring the family! And entry is by donation so if you're low income you can still enjoy this awesome place. Staff are super nice and knowledgeable
