There are no lions or tigers or bears, but there are more than 200 animals and birds at the Farm & Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, located on the grounds of our main campus in Brewster, NY. Barns, stables, riding rings, trails, a greenhouse and our Children's Garden can be found at the farm, providing education and recreation to students and local residents. Our wildlife rehabilitation center features large display and flight cages for easy viewing.

If you are interested in an individual or family visit, we are open to the public for self-guided tours on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Groups larger than 6 are required to book a Farm Tour (for insurance and liability purposes.)

Weekday group tours of the farm and wildlife center are available for a nominal fee. Tours are led by a staff guide and are educational in nature. A hayride and pony ride is included. Farm Tours are very popular with school groups and early reservations are encouraged.
