Second time here - kids love feeding the fish/turtles/ducks. There are some turtles that are enormous!! And so many fish! I get the carrots for the little ones to feed the cows and goats but they get really scared and just end up chucking them at the animals. Fun experience though...and a good way to expose them to animals that live on a farm. Fresh veggies and fruit for purchase. Would love to see a smoothie counter here to get fresh juices and smoothies. They have live music/food trucks at night sometimes but we haven't been there for that yet. It's hot but the canopy over the kids play area is very much appreciated. Plenty of places to sit and relax. A fantastic way to kill an hour or so outside. read more

Poor bunnies are manhandled by unsupervised children. This place is nothing like advertised. Trash everywhere. Poop everywhere. No hand sanitizer in the pumps. Very small and homemade read more

When I arrived to the location it was a bunch of no trespassing signs & private property signs, every website led us to this location. We called the number and it's for a Tennessee location. Very disappointing this isn't organized better. read more

This place is an absolute animal wonderland for kiddos. I'm not an animal person, but my kids and adult child aka husband had a blast. The admission includes food for the animals. They have chickens, geese, parakeets, bunnies,sheep, hogs, guinea pigs, donkeys, goats, and llamas. They also have a bounce pad and swings for kids. I highly recommend a visit. We stayed two hours. read more

Customer service was very nice! But... some goats were aggressive , animals look very sick (almost dead) . Lambs are half shaved and super matted (it's probably very heavy for them) .. animals are over weight (being fed WAY too much or WAY too less) .. some animals got loose (bunnies... May go missing) nobody watches these animals . Pig water is super dirty and filled with mosquitos. Can't get to guinea pigs without getting attacked and chased by peacocks .. donkeys look depressed and sick. Cute animals but just very sad sight to see. Drove an hour and got a refund :( read more

My husband and I took our 2 and 5 year old children to Springtime Farms for their fall festival Halloween weekend. It is way out in the boonies (aka North Ft Myers), but, definitely worth the little drive. It is settled back on a dirt road, among residential homes. They have a large parking lot! We arrived just after they opened at 9am, which i highly recommend. It was around 40$ for 3 of us, and under 3 are free. They gave us each a little basket with some lettuce, a cup of pellets, and little popsicle sticks with bird seed for the parakeets. We immediately went to the left, towards the goats, followed by the parakeet enclosure! They had double doors when entering any animal enclosure, to ensure the animals didn't escape or get anywhere they weren't supposed to be. When we entered the parakeet enclosure, they immediately swarmed us. The kids (and husband) got a little scared at first from all of them flocking. In the end, it was super neat for all of them to just fly over and sit on you or the sticks, while they ate. **note, we came back before we left, around noon, and the birds were not hungry at all, and high up in their houses away from peoples reach. This is why I recommend coming first thing. Next, we went into the guinea pig and chicken enclosure, followed by the butterfly garden. After that, we got to feed bunnies and chicken the lettuce, and pigs/goats/llamas/cows the pellets. They were all very hungry in the morning, which made for a great experience for the kids. The only reason I gave this place 4 stars, instead of 5, was because I felt the goats had quite a lot of mats in them. There were employees "watering down" the pig pen, but it seemed like the animals could have had a little bit more grooming :). After feeding and petting all the animals, we moved on to the play area. This consisted of: pedal go karts, bubble zones, chalk area, basketball games, bouncy balls, tetherball, haybale slides, a tractor, sandbox, pumpkin painting....JEEZ they had so much fun stuff for the kids!! Another highlight for the kids was the GIANT trampoline. It was like an open air bounce house of sorts, and they thoroughly enjoyed it. There were Adirondack chairs for the adults to rest, while the kids wore themselves out :). Definitely recommend this farm, for the number of fun activities, and the high quality nap-prep for the kids :). read more

The Fall Festival is amazing, good ole' time wholesome fashion fun! My granddaughter had more fun than going to a theme park by far. It was the most fun I've since children having In decades and best bang for your buck! I highly recommend for families, children 1-15 years of age is the target age for all activities. read more

Such a wonderful place! My family primarily came for the petting farm and they had a LOT of animals you can visit and feed!! It was a wonderful experience and we had a ton of fun. They also give you a decent amount of food to feed the animals. The goats and llamas do sneeze / spit sometime so just be careful and the chickens and ducks can get aggressive taking food from you! It's a good time read more

I had a grand ol' time-- it was 100% my cup of tea. Will definitely be going back. My 2 year old loved it as well, until he decided he wasn't okay with his shoes getting dirty. I highly recommend checking this place out! All the animals were friendly, and the staff was really friendly too, so that's always a plus! $10 entry fee for myself. 2 year old was free. The $10 included a little basket with feed for the all the animals. read more

It was a wonderful little farm. My boys enjoyed feeding the animals. I do wish more food and lettuce came with the admission. The cats and kittens were a bonus, so cute. The bird enclosures were a bit yucky and the birds did not want the seed stick. My boys really enjoyed it, so that is what mattered the most to me. Staff was very friendly. Definitely recommend. We did not use the water slides, but they looked fun!! read more

So I'd give this maybe more of a 3.5 as an adult and parent but I can't deny that my son enjoyed himself immensely. I understand this has been a nursery and is mainly set up as that. The new fun attractions are still being developed and because of that I feel slightly like it's unfair to judge. That being said, maybe what we review will lead to an improved experience. My gripe(s) are as follows: the parking lot is about as unwelcoming as can come. Not set up for an influx of people and it's all dirt. Entering the animal area isn't bad but paying for each adult and kid and then we only got the 1 feeding bucket? I understand it was a good amount of food but I'm not understanding paying for 3 adults and a kid and getting only one feeding bucket. Is it per family? Seems like it should be less food and given for each person. The parakeets are underwhelming and probably a mistake to have. They hid in the corner (all of them) and were not interested in food. The rabbit attraction is fun but wow there definitely should be an adult manning that post. It was a frenzy of kids just trying to grab a bunny. I can't imagine that is good. In fact, there was no one at any station making sure no one is acting out. Or not making a mess. I think giving a tour would help? Designated times for tours with some exclusive interactions or feedings and then charge a fee. To leave me to wander and not know anything about any animals is asking for an issue. What they do great? The variety of animals is awesome. The bounce area is incredibly fun for kids. Somehow no kid was injured in the hour I was there so yay for that. The nursery itself looks lovely. I'd love to return and hope things are a little more polished. read more

Oh my goodness, I'm hoping and praying they just had an off day. We went during the end of the week thinking it wouldn't be busy and everything would be available as they stated. When we got there, fantastic customer service, such a nice person behind the desk. We started our own personal tour . We walked and fed some goats to my knowledge and then went into the birrd house. We didn't have anything for the bird last. We're you supposed to ask for them specifically ? Or ????? So yeah that was a waste. We saw the butterfly house and got super excited ! We walked into an overgrown area with a path that wasn't taken care of. Not to mention, we didn't see a single butterfly, ha yikes. We got to feed the bunnies thankfully and that was a very fun experience which gets it the single star . They state they are an adventure park but NOTHING was working, no water pumps working, slide was dirty and hot, the big wheels are broken and don't work, the bubble wands were just there and no bubbles, no paddles to play the tube things, it was just awful. Luckily we asked for a refund and they did give it back and said it could take up to 14 days . We probably weren't even there for 45 minutes. read more

Great place to take the family! A safe playground for the kids and well taken care of animals to feed and pet. You can walk around an actually working farm which is so much fun for both the kids and adults. On certain days they have a rockin brewery with amazing beers. The coolest little farmers market and food stand. Just a beautiful and relaxing place to spend a stress free day. read more

We went to the fall festival and arrived for the haunted maze around 6:00 pm. Haunted maze did not open until 7:00 pm (was said to open at 6:30 pm). They charged a "reduced" price for getting in since they were lacking on advertised items for $12/person. They had already ran out of pumpkins-major bummer. Props were falling apart. There were no food or beverages. It just seemed like there was a playground and a petting zoo for kids. I honestly felt sorry for the animals (place seemed run down and animals looked semi neglected). How is this a fall festival? They totally missed the mark. Should have at least had at least drinks (eg cider, water, coffee, tea, hot chocolate) and snacks (popcorn, Carmel apples, and s''mores packages). Could have also sold spiked cider, beer, and/or wine. Get it together Florida when it comes to fall activities. Major missed opportunity and let down. read more

this Halloween adventure was a joke. We got there and there was no food. The food truck was pulling out. they had only one spooky trail. also a joke. you had to fill, out a pre-entry form for what I'm not sure about because they never checked to see if you had filled one out. Cash only. I know now why. they didn't want you to get your money back. I felt I was robbed. $30 dollars. what a rip off read more

I really want to be fair but it's not possible. This placed was horrible. The animals are underfed, the place is run down. We didn't even see the bounce pad. Everything was run down. We went in to see the butterflies, there was none. Holes every where so no butterflies. It was so horrible that I felt asking for my $12 back per person would be the animals would lant be fed again. read more

We used to love coming here and would come weekly (or more) during the height of covid. Even though the price was higher for this farm, in comparison to other local ones, they had so many activities (bounce houses, lots of areas to play and a variety of animals, it was worth it. Unfortunately, the recent hurricane damaged a lot of their play areas and animal enclosures. They are still charging the same cost for 50% less activities and animals. I understand the business is needing to survive, but we won't be returning until they have rebuilt. It's definitely not worth the high cost at this time. Sadly. read more

Where do I even start..... have you seen the scene from Toy Story 3 where all the toddlers come in bursting into the room and all the toys panic and hide? About later they all come in and start playing with so the toys wildly? Okay ..... picture that scene but with animals. Real animals. Baby animals. IF YOU ARE AN ANIMAL LOVER ...... this is not the place to go. The first time I went ..... with my very own toddler. They had just opened up. It was actually VERY well Maintained, animals were kept very well, and there was supervision. My toddler was not allowed to pick up any baby animal. Only feed and watch from a distance. Only pet of animals wanted to be petted. The second time I went ....... oh lord. OH MY LORD!!! Where do I start? 1. There was 2 baby goats with umbilical cords still. This meant they were maybe about 2 weeks max. They were being held by not 1 but at least 10+ kids taking turns. Adults taking pictures and snapping away with their phone like ........ this baby wasn't a NEW BORN!!! The baby goats floated from arm to arm to arm to arm. At one point one of the baby goats was just laying there .... with no energy left. I actually went to the "front desk" and by this I mean just a shack. I told them there was 2 new born goats and one of them didn't look okay. They just said "oh I'm pretty sure it is" .... mind you the people in charge there are teen age girls that look overwhelmed by he masses of people Coming in. I bet these goats were probably dropped at some point. 2. The bunnies. Oh the bunnies...... they are scared! They try to hide! Some look very sick and one of them had puss coming out of its eye. There is also adult bunnies and baby bunnies all in one "pen". That's a no no! I saw a baby bunny trying to nurse .... that was cute UNTIL I see an adult GRABBING the baby away from its mom just to hold it and take a picture! ....... okay...... do you know that if humans touch a baby bunny the mom Rejects it? No supervision either ..... at all. 3. The guinea pigs. They are TERRIFIED! As soon as anyone comes near their open pen ( you can just stick your hand in and reach in and pick up any) they SCATTER and run!!!! Also this pen is. BREADING ground!!! So many gulf ball size babies EVERYWHERE..... and guess what? they are the most tempting! kids just reach in and catch them! I felt so bad for them! I bet you anything someone has stuck one or two in their pocket! because again..... NO SUPERVISION! 4. The chicks and ducklings ...... I mean they are in a 3 by 3 wooden pen. They are at floor level where EVERY KID and their mama can grab them! I saw these chicks and ducklings be picked up one time after the other just to snap a picture!!!! When do these animals breathe??? Some had missing feathers which can be a sign of stress! Again .... no supervision. 5. The birds .... they have an advantage ..... they can fly. But..... it's spring which means ...... nesting time .... they had NOTHING for them to create their nests. Mind you there is like 50 birds of different species... Anyways back to the nests .... so they are forced to create nests with what's available ..... nothing. So this eggs are just there in plain site. No trees, no cages, nothing! they just roam on the floors or some square cubbies with no straw. Or anything for them to lay their eggs. 6. The cat shack? ....... I'm just gonna ask for you to go and see that thing. It's scary! They have 3 baby strollers in there and they are ALL ripped up by the cats....... horro movie scene. 7. I do think the animals towards the back have it good! they are always forgotten! lol so the hype went down by the time everyone makes it to the back. Plus there is mostly adult animals. So .... no one cares. But they are little savages because they steal your cup of food! Those sheep and goats ...... are hustlers 8. The chicken pen You want to go get chased By angry roosters? Come here! Now for the good part: The bounce thing bubble they have: it's fun but NO SUPERVISION. So make Sure you are watching your kids. All outdoor games great! read more

In January 2021, Springtime Farms was OK & offered a large selection of plants. We bought a few plants. In April of 2022, we went there again & it had become a total disaster.

Had a great afternoon here with my husband, brother in law, and our 3 year old son. They have a bunch of different animals that you can interact with, feed, pet and carry. My son LOVED it. We were especially charmed by the bunnies and a baby goat, but there were alpaca, sheep, llama, cow, chickens, quail and parakeet as well. Some of the animals did seem a little scared from so many small hands grabbing at them and there didn't seem to be many staff members around supervising which I suppose could lead to problems but everyone there that day seemed to be enjoying themselves. We paid admission for 4 and only received 1 bag of food/ lettuce for the different animals. I think giving each paid participant their own little bag or basket would have been nicer. After our walk around the animal pens we spent some time bouncing at the fun open bounce area. Love that it doesn't have walls and adults can join in too, it felt a little safer than traditional bounce houses. We went during the first few weeks of their opening so I think they have a few kinks to work out but I love that we have this option nearby. We paid a reduced opening month price of $8/ per person which I felt was reasonable. The price has now increased to $12 which seems a bit high for me unless they add substantially more to the experience. Would definitely go back but will keep an eye out for a coupon or discount. read more
