| About us | The Petting Farm opened its doors in 1984 at Domino’s Farms. In 1996 The Petting Farm became a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. At the Petting Farm at Domino’s Farms we combine education and fun to give all of our visitors an enriching hands-on experience where they can learn about a real farm and interact with the animals. We now rely on the support of our patrons and sponsors as well as donations to keep our facility open to the public. The Petting Farm is a symbol of our appreciation and commitment to the agriculture industry and the traditional farm values that are evident in our culture. |
