APRIL FOOLS DAY THROUGH NOVEMBER 1st

11am - 4pm (last tour starts at 3)

Sorry, we are very busy and not staffed
during the week for visitors

The animals are much more interesting when they're not just on your computer screen! We're a mere 2 hours by car from the George Washington Bridge, and the Trailways bus from NYC stops right on our corner (read important bus instructions here).

Admission is $7 per adult over 12, $5 for kids 12 and under, free for tykes 3 and under -- or free for members. Individual memberships are $30 a year, or $50/year for families.

Use a GPS? Our physical address is 35 Van Wagner Road, Willow, NY. But don't use MapQuest or Google maps, which will send you a confusing way -- instead use the better directions via the popup menu at the top of the page.

Animal introductions are held on the hour starting at 11, so try to time your arrival that way.

THERE IS POOR CELLPHONE RECEPTION IN THE CATSKILLS, SO FOR DRIVING/BUS DIRECTIONS USE POPUP MENU ABOVE

Make a weekend getaway out of it! The Catskills area is a blast -- hiking, kayaking, tubing, art & music are all close by. And as long as you're making the journey, why not bring some junky clothes and volunteer at the farm? Call 845-679-5955 or send us an email.

WEATHER & CLOTHING: It's good to check the weather (see bottom of this page) and plan your clothing & footwear accordingly. Consider bringing an extra pair of shoes to swap out in the car. Flipflops aren't a great choice to wear on a farm, and if there's been a lot of rain recently you may encounter some mud.

When in town make sure to dine at the Garden Cafe, an all-vegan restaurant with outstanding veg chow. You can't miss 'em -- they're right smack in the middle of town on the opposite side of the central "green" in Woodstock where there are some benches and a flag.

Directions, accommodations and restaurant selections and can be found via the popup menu at the top of the page.

A note about wheelchairs: We do have wheelchair-accessible parking and a restroom available, and most of the farm is reachable by wheelchair. However, be warned that the ground is quite rugged in spots and can be tough-going. We recommend 2 people per wheelchair to help navigate bumps and thresholds.

A note about Your Best Friend: As much as we love dogs, please leave them at home! Even well-behaved dogs who are not accustomed to a farm can really scare the residents here.
