Visit this Historic Working Farm to Help Feed, Groom and Care For its Animals

ST. CHARLES–Collecting eggs from the chickens and putting out hay for the horses offers a taste of farm life with five different Animal Adventures at Primrose Farm, a facility of the St. Charles Park District.


The historic working farm is inviting guests to help feed, groom and care for its animals. Programs for young children with adults involve the simple task of feeding chickens or goats.


The next level of adventure starts with the Chicken and Egg activity where visitors enter the coop to collect eggs, and participants are able to take some home for their own kitchen. The Animal Adventure: Hold Your Horses gives visitors the opportunity to help groom a Belgian draft horse while the Hands On Milking experience gives participants the opportunity to hand-milk Jersey cow.


Advance registration is required. These educational opportunities offer a personal feel and give participants a chance to engage with staff and learn more about the animal care.


Fees range from $2-$10 per person. It’s best to dress for the weather and the job. Closed-toed shoes and long pants are best when working up close with the animals.
