New time slots are LIVE for our Exclusive Hands-On Farm Experience for a limited time only!
The calendar is officially open for the 2026 summer season at Branch Hill Estate! We are booking private sessions Friday through Monday during the most beautiful, comfortable parts of the day to beat the summer heat:
🌅 Morning/Afternoon: 11:00 AM | 12:00 PM | 1:00 PM
🌇 Evening: 5:00 PM | 6:00 PM | 7:00 PM
Why book an experience with us?
Unlike massive public farm attractions, Branch Hill Estate is a private gated property. There are no crowds, no lines, and zero stress. When you book a slot, the animals' and barn manager's attention belong entirely to your group of up to 10 people for 50 minutes.
Our experiences are completely customizable. We can do a traditional guided loop inside the fields, stalls, and pens where you pet, feed, brush, and learn names and fun facts about all the animals. Or you can spend the entire time up close and personal brushing the horses, feeding the goats, or cuddling the baby bunnies. From mini donkeys and llamas to rare emu chicks and upcoming baby piglets, we have an unmatched variety of incredibly friendly animals waiting to meet you!
A Very Important Update from Our Barn Manager, Max:
If you have been waiting to visit us, please do not wait! The 2026 summer season is likely our final time offering these experiences. I have officially graduated from Xavier University and will be moving off the property into my own home and starting a full-time career by the fall. Because of this major transition, we can only guarantee availability for the next couple months. We want to make sure everyone gets a chance to see the animals while they are still available!
Help Us Feed Our Adorable Freeloaders! ❤️
We absolutely love our animals, most of whom are rescues and retirees. Unlike a commercial farm, we do not make any profit from animal products, meaning our sweet animals are full-time slackers! They require a ton of expensive grain, hay, and daily care 365 days a year. Outside of our summer camps, these private experiences are the only way we pay for their upkeep and food, making your support incredibly meaningful to our farm family!
Every booking directly supports the animals. Plus, every group gets to take home some of our free-range, organic, multicolored eggs! We also save the last few minutes for kids to enjoy our playset, tire swing, kid-friendly axe throwing, or feeding the fish at our fully stocked lake.
