Welcome to

    Walk-About Acres is a family-owned farm with something exciting to offer children and adults from 1-100. We love to tell about our many animals from our colorful, show-off peacocks to our Missouri mule foot pig Jacqueline,who likes a good ear scratching. We also have:

• Soft cuddly rabbits.
  

• Our beautiful peacocks.
  

• Our Mulefoot pig, Jacqueline. These are her six babies after their mud bath.
  

• Our awesome emus.
  

• Auracana chickens which lay green shelled eggs, also called the Easter Egg chicken.
  

• Our Pilgrim Geese, Donald and Daisy.
  

• Our heritage turkeys: a pair of Narganset, a wild hen, and                                                   a male Black Spanish.
  

• Let's not forget our goats.
  

• We also have an observation hive in Papa's Store to see honey bees                          working behind glass.
  

      

    We offer you an on-farm experience you may never forget. We have groups from school children to senior citizens visit our farm and lots of them return for second and third visits.

                                    Thank you for visiting our website.
