DESCRIPTION

The Art Farm in the City is an eco-friendly and organic facility which teaches your children about nature, animals and how to better care for the planet. They have a USDA licensed, indoor petting zoo with a wide variety of animals including bunnies, chinchillas, guinea pigs, lizards, turtles, birds, tropical fish and sometimes even pigs, chickens, goats and sheep!

During the summer, the Art Farm in the City provides day camps for kids between the ages of three and eight. Kids are divided into three groups by age range. The camp takes place in the eco-friendly facility, but not all of their programs focus on green. Check out the “nature week” camp for the most sustainable option.

They also offer a 10 percent discount for siblings, and for every dollar that you spend at the The Art Farm, they make a donation to Mari’s Children, a non-profit organization that helps children all over the world.
