An Immersive Experience

Farm Tours typically last approximately one hour, though timing may vary slightly depending on the animals, group size, and how many extra snuggles happen along the way.

Each visit offers a unique behind-the-scenes glimpse into sanctuary life. Depending on timing and the animals' needs that day, your experience will likely include: • Meeting our rescued sanctuary animals • Hearing their rescue stories • Guided feeding opportunities • Learning about daily care and life on the ranch • Light, age-appropriate hands-on participation • Plenty of memorable photo moments No two visits are exactly alike—which is part of the magic.

Our main feeding times are typically around 8:30 AM and 5:30 PM, which can make for especially fun and interactive visits. As with all things animal-related, schedules may occasionally shift based on weather, health needs, or ranch operations.

Absolutely! Farm Tours are family-friendly and can be a wonderful experience for children. For everyone's safety: • All minors must be accompanied by a parent or guardian • Children ages 0–3 are welcome but must remain in a stroller, carrier, backpack, or in-hand while on the ranch

This is a real working ranch, so comfort and practicality are key. We recommend: • Closed-toe shoes (required) • Comfortable outdoor clothing • Layers (weather can shift quickly) • Sun protection (hat/sunscreen) You may encounter dust, hay, mud, animal kisses, and a little adventure.

Our tours include safe, guided opportunities for interaction and feeding. However, for the safety of both guests and animals: • Please do not feed or interact with animals unless directed by your host • Do not enter animal enclosures without supervision Our animals' wellbeing always comes first.

To protect the health and safety of our sanctuary residents, outside animals are not permitted. Service animals are always welcome; please let us know in advance if you'll be bringing one so we can plan accordingly.

Yes—helping us protect the animals, property, and peaceful environment is important. Please: • Respect all host instructions • Stay out of private residences and fenced residential areas • Pick up after yourselves • Be respectful of neighbors and the peaceful ranch setting

Not quite—but they share the same heart. Both Farm Tours and Side by Side Healing Experiences are part of Robin's Nest Rescue's nonprofit programming, rooted in the healing power of connection between humans, rescued animals, and nature. Farm Tours are designed as welcoming experiences for the general public—fun, educational, hands-on, and naturally therapeutic. Side by Side experiences offer a deeper, more intentional therapeutic focus through personalized, guided animal-assisted healing experiences. Farm Tour = joyful community healing + education Side by Side = deeper therapeutic connection + restoration Both directly support our nonprofit mission.

100% of your Farm Tour fee directly supports Robin's Nest Rescue's nonprofit mission—helping provide lifelong sanctuary, food, veterinary care, enrichment, and healing-centered programming for both animals and people.
