New Jersey has a good spread of farm parks and petting zoos that make for an easy family day out. Whether you’re near the shore, in the northern hills, or somewhere in between, you’ll find options for getting outdoors, meeting animals, and enjoying a change of pace from city life. These spots suit toddlers through grade-schoolers and make for a relaxed way to spend a morning or afternoon together.
Before you head out, check the farm’s own website for current hours and any seasonal closures. Wear boots or shoes you don’t mind getting muddy, and consider booking ahead if you’re visiting during school holidays.
This guide features a selection of farms from across New Jersey. See all 219 farm parks in New Jersey on the map.
