Wendel Farms

A scenic drive just across the Ohio state line into Indiana will reveal a gem of a place in Wendel Farms. Wendel is great place to take children for fun and education. 

Wendel Farms has a fun petting farm with goats, alpacas, llamas, sheep, pigs, and many, many more! Children (and those young at heart!) may pet as well as feed the animals, who are friendly animals used to human contact.

Entrance into the farm for a family is cheaper than the much larger farms, but those who organized the family section of the farm put all the fun you would find anywhere else in a unique and educational farm.

My boys went through the farm collecting farm items while learning about agriculture which they took to a "farmer's market" for a candy prize.

My boys loved the tricycle track, corn hole, straw maze, and corn maze.

The farm also has a pony ride in this beautiful setting.

The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. They love children and were very enthusiastic about agricultural education.

The farm has a nice little shop where you can purchase seasonal crops, clothes, toys, and decorations. I found the shop very affordable.

Last, but certainly not least, is the pumpkin farm! Wendel Farms has a fun hay ride to their pumpkin farm where they have lots of pumpkins of different sizes.
