Have the REAL Farm Experience at Butterfield Acres!

We believe the best way to learn about animals is to walk among them. From the high-energy joy of our Spring Babies Festival to the quiet magic of a Farm Date Night, our experiences are built on a foundation of deep respect for our animals.

Celebrate a special occasion in the Birthday Barn or let the farm come to you—we bring the same care and “farm-first” philosophy to every encounter, just as we have since the 80s.

Real Farm Experiences: Where Connection Takes Root

Every “Real Farm Experience” is built on a foundation of deep respect for our animals. Our critters aren’t just here for show—they are our partners and our family. From the quiet patience required to bottle-feed a lamb to the gentle hands needed to hold a chick, we teach our guests that being a “farmer” starts with empathy. We believe that by wiggling your fingers into curly wool or feeling the warmth of a newly laid egg, you develop a lifelong bond with the natural world. It’s a “back-to-basics” philosophy that hasn’t changed since we opened our gates four decades ago.
