Meet farm animals up close on a private guided tour
1 Hour
Up to 40 people
Guided farm tour, Animal feeding
Join a guided educational farm tour reserved just for your group, and get close to animals like alpacas, goats, sheep, ostriches, and peacocks. Learn about their life cycles and enjoy time on the shared lawn after the tour.
Tours run rain or shine. Wear closed-toed shoes you don’t mind getting dirty. After booking, staff availability must be confirmed and you may be asked to reschedule.
There are no refunds, cancellations, or rescheduling. We reserve the right to reschedule for extreme weather (heat, storms, fire, ice, etc).
This is a working farm, not a petting zoo. Don’t chase or pet any animals unless your guide instructs you to. Look at free-range birds but don’t pet them. Follow your guide’s directions on what you can feed and how to hold treats, since some foods and plants can make animals sick. If your group doesn’t follow expectations or respect the animals, you may be asked to leave for safety.
Wear closed-toed shoes you don’t mind getting dirty. Expect dirt, animal droppings, and uneven, slippery surfaces.
The tour runs rain or shine. The farm may reschedule for extreme weather (heat, storms, fire, ice, etc.).

This family-owned operation has carved out a niche as an intimate, less overwhelming alternative to bigger commercial farms. Visitors consistently praise the variety of animals—from ostriches and emus to alpacas, goats, and peacocks—and the guided tours get high marks for being both educational for adults and engaging for kids. The owners come across as genuinely accommodating and responsive, whether they're hosting birthday parties, scout groups, or multi-generational family outings. Their seasonal events like Easter celebrations and summer camps seem well-organized and thoughtful. The farm excels at private events and parties, with reviewers highlighting the covered outdoor venue space and kid-friendly amenities like bounce houses. Many mention the surprisingly delicious ostrich sliders available at their markets. The staff clearly knows how to work with different age groups and group sizes—one review mentioned seamlessly hosting 100 people for a scout event. One visitor noted concerns about crowded conditions in the bird area, but this seems to be an isolated observation. The location strikes a nice balance of being close to Portland while feeling like a countryside escape.
What a fun experience! I am the Life Enrichment Director for The Arbor and we took our residents on a great adventure thanks to farmer DJ! We got to feed, hold, pet, and learn about the animals they have on the farm. Due to walking restrictions, wheelchairs, and walkers he was nice enough to bring he animals to us! He even let us have some Ostrich jerky. Such a lovely experience!
