Farm Babies is at the Minnesota Zoo April 25 through May 17!
A favorite spring-time family tradition, Farm Babies is back for an up-close look at farm life in America. The fun starts April 25 and lasts through May 17, 2026.
It’s a fun family adventure to celebrate the season with animals, farm demonstrations, and more. Enjoy watching all of the cute piglets, llamas, calves, chicks, and more to welcome spring!
The Farm Babies experience is included in the price of zoo admission – there are no additional fees. Tickets to the Zoo must be purchased online and in advance.
Please note that the Farm is open daily from 10 am – 4 pm. Zoo members may visit the Farm during extended hours from 9 – 10 am.
This year is extra special because they’ve added some brand-new faces to the farm! You can now meet miniature donkeys and miniature Highland & White Park cattle alongside our usual favorites like piglets, goat kids, and lambs.
