Fairbank Animal Farm357

This place should be shut down!"
I have no idea how this place hasn't been shut down by the health inspector. The ONE honey bucket toilet for 200+ people during 1 hour was overflowing with poo and smelled! Then you go into this small, unkept and unsightly so-called farm where the goat pen looked like it was covered in poo too! How can this be a farm when they don't even know how to take care of the animals. The only 2 little things they grew were rotting in the garden. But you were distracted by the plastic bunnies and kitchy crap. Avoid this place and call the healthy inspector and State Vet to send in your complaints.
The only one container of Purell was empty.
Watch out for viruses or diseases. This place is simply GROSS!
And...I've gone in back country in developing countries. This is the worst place that I've seen. Poor animals!
AND, they people there don't care. That's the worst of it.

We took our 3 kids there this past weekend, it was just what we were looking for. We live in Edmonds and were looking for something to do on Saturday, and found this place online. It was your quintessential fall/harvest/october activity, lots of cute themed decorations and pumpkin patches. The kids enjoyed seeing all the animals and feeding the chickens (they give you food with the price of admission). We'll be back next year.

This was the worst "farm" Ive ever been to. There was literally rotting wood and piles of tires lying around. The animal part is just farm animals behind chicken wire in make-shift pens- the geese and ducks just had a kiddie pool full dirty water. I felt sorry for the animals.

The pumpkin patch is just a small grassy aarea with pumpkins on the ground- they arent grown there, and there are only small sugar pumpkins (find for toddlers, not for a family looking to carve a pumpkin).

Its very small - you could do the whole thing in 20 minutes. There's a garden you can walk through with some veggies but there are signs that the kids arent to touch anything.

When you go on a class trip the only animal the kids can touch are goats- nothing else. So much for "hands on"!

The geese had a cap of a pickup bed for shelter.

This is a makeshift petting zoo behind wire, where you cant touch anything. Theres a cement slab path to the "pumpkin patch" with pumpkins they brought in and dumped in the field.

Seriously a waste of time and money.

very cute little farm, family run, good fall activity. i've driven by this place a million times and finally decided to take my daughters, and it was a lot of fun. you can pet animals and pick pumpkins, etc. good price too, at only 2.50 a person. A+

This was a fantastic activity for our family. We have a 2 and 4 year old, and they both had a blast. They really enjoyed petting the animals and choosing their own pumpkins from the field. Highly recommended!

Unfortunately, this place was not at all what I was hoping for. For one thing, there were no pumpkins left! We went on Sunday the 17th and all there was to do was see the dirty and VERY smelly animals. The other review here says it's the best for kids yet I have a 2 year old and a newborn and I would not want my kids to touch ANYTHING there and I am not normally a germo-phobe. It was a total waste of the money paid to get in...I still can't believe there were no pumpkins...they should have told you at the entrance before you paid!!!!

this is the best farm to visit with kids - they have lots of animals the kids can touch - pigmy goats, calfs, chicks, gosslings, etc. the kids can throw feed to the ducks and looks at the baby turtles. a lovely pumpkin patch to wander up to and amongst. no other farm has so many animals for touching - other farms put then in a pen and you can only look at them. kids are tactile and touching them is what reinforces their wonder and excitement, plus it gives them the opportunity to be gentle and responsible with another living creature. they have a free parking lot right at the farm and they have hand washing facilities and port-o-potties. really close to the city - easy to get to!
