It is just getting dark now at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest Nc and the peahens (female peacocks) are settling in for the night in a cherry tree close to Farmer Mary’s house.
The adult peacocks and peahens will eat grapes, kale, corn, romaine lettuce, cereal out of farm visitors hands. We also have some very young peacocks that were born at Winterpast Farm earlier this summer that you can see when you visit. Get outside!
We have plenty of deep shade here at Winterpast Farm.
If you would like to meet our wide variety of animals, PLEASE read the entire “your visit” at www.winterpast.org which very fully explains parking, our admission price, and lists a wide variety of food you can bring for feeding the animals.
