The Petting Farm at Domino's Farms


*The event has already taken place on this date: Wed, 09/30/2020
The Petting Farm is the fun place for children, families and groups to visit! We offer a hands-on experience that is enriching and exciting. In 1996 The Petting Farm became a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We now rely on the support of our patrons and sponsors as well as donations to keep our facility open to the public. The Petting Farm is a symbol of our appreciation and commitment to the agriculture industry and the traditional farm values that are evident in our culture. It serves as a historical tribute to the farmers who lived in the area and developed the agribusiness we have today.
