Judging by the parking lot, not many know about this wonderful free resource. Cornell Cooperative has a working farm located in Yapank. Sunday we went to the farm to see the animals. It was a beautiful day and we pretty much had the place to ourselves. Many of the animals have been rescued or are older and are very sweet and happy to see you! You can buy food at the visitors center for $2 a bag. I suggest buying a few as there is a lot of animals and they will want to see want you bring them. The pigs are the best...I never realized how much they act like dogs! There were a group of young pigs that were so playful, I could have watched them all day. They were so adorable, play fighting with each other and when the worker started hosing down their pen, they all started to bite the hose and shake it just like a puppy would! The farm has a lot of different areas to see, we spent alot more time there than I thought we would. There is a new play area for children built with logs and wood from fallen trees. A very nice touch and shows how you can repurpose natural resources. Even though this season is wrapping up, they still have a few activities planned for the coming weeks. Go Here to see what they have to offer.
Very happy to see us
How can you resist those ears!!
