Welcome to Dutch Creek Farm Animal Park - also simply known as Dutch Creek Farm.
Here, you'll come face-to-face, beak-to-beak, and nose-to-nose with some truly unique creatures that you simply don't see every day.
You'll see some critters you'd expect to see, such as pigs, sheep, horses and goats...
...but the real draw is the amazing array of animals you can visit with that you DON'T typically see at an Indiana farm. And goodness, there are PLENTY.
Meet, greet, and even feed critters like this handsome longhorn:
And have you ever wanted to feed a zebra?? Yes??? Well, guess what:
...have I got the destination for you.
Dutch Creek is more than "just" a petting zoo attraction; the animals that call this place home are happy, healthy, and well cared for - and it shows. They're eager to greet guests in the friendliest of ways, and when you've got food of some kind they're EXTRA interested in becoming friends.
You can tour the whole farm in your own vehicle - windows up, please - or you can take one of the awesome horse-drawn wagon rides.
If you want to feed the animals, you'll want to do the wagon ride - that's the one that brings you face-to-face with an assortment of new, exotic friends.
Come visit Dutch Creek Farm Animal Park ASAP - it's open from May through October, so there's time!
