The Art Farm

I took my grandson here and he had a great time. It was a but small but thats also a good thing. It was easy for us to be in and out under 2 hours. lots of animals and easy access to follow the path. Descriptions of the animals at every stall. I found tickets on groupon.

I first went here pre pandemic with my then 8 month old. We went for the open play and to see the animals. There were maybe two other children there, both toddlers. My daughter and I played in the open space for a bit. There were many toys for her to choose from. Then we went to the room where the animals were. One employee took us around to each animal, this included: iguanas, birds, a tortoise, a chicken, rabbits, and maybe a few others. My daughter interacted with each animal. It’s was really nice. We’ve since visited again. The home location is under renovation and the temporary location is right on the same block. The experience, of course, is different. I was expecting to go back and see the same animals. (Shame on me for expecting anything to me the same.) That was not the case. A woman came with 4 animals, a lizard, a dove, a gerbil, and beetles. My daughter is now 18 months and this did not capture her attention quite the same. She was much more active and didn’t really want to wait for the animals to come her way in the rotation. There’s still a nice big space for playing as well as arts and crafts. This second time was more on the ok side, but we’ll try it out again.

We absolutely love the Art Farm in the City. We live in FL and every time we visit NYC we visit for a class and time with the animals. My daughters speak about the bunnies and guinea pigs constantly, and cant wait to go back to see them again. The staff is very kind, knowledgeable, and patient with the kids and they make everyone feel so welcome.

We love the art farm!! It's been a favorite for years!. It's so much fun to go to spend time with the animals and be able to pet them and get to know them in a intimate atmosphere, I like that it's not too crowded and they have so much stuff to do like arts and crafts, music and cooking!!. Plus the toys they have are amazing and we always end up needing one. Definitely can't recommend this place enough. It has everything you want and more!!. A win win all around!!. I love the staff, they're the best!!.

We love the Art Farm! My 2-year old always has a blast at the in-person classes, and is now able to enjoy virtually while we're stuck at home! We can't wait to get back to the farm :)
