MISSION STATEMENT
"Love the Animals -
God has given them the rudiments of thought and joy untroubled...
Don’t harass them - don’t deprive them of their happiness...
Don’t work against God’s intent"
Dostoevsky (1821-1881)
In a world where, all too often, animals are regarded as little more than resources to serve the needs and desires of human beings, their pure, unique, and divine spirits remain dismissed, repressed, or ignored. In our effort to provide a safe and loving haven that reflects a heart-felt appreciation, respect, and celebration of the beauty, wisdom, and companionship of these wondrous creatures...Plum Loco Animal Farm was established.
While you may encounter a variety of animals to pet and feed, we are not a "petting zoo" in the traditional sense. Our mission, at Plum Loco, is to provide our animal family with a safe and loving home for the duration of their life spans. Each has a name, personal history, and unique personality. In most cases, each has been raised with its family herd. And while baby animals are naturally cute, cuddly, and entertaining, they inevitably grow into adulthood. Therefore, you may not always see baby animals at Plum Loco. You may encounter aging seniors as they live out their lives in peaceful retirement. And while most are adults, rest assured, they are all young at heart.
Here at Plum Loco, our goal is not to maximize consumer dollars, but rather to maximize the comfort and quality of life of our precious animal family as they live out their natural life spans. Sound totally crazy? Perhaps. But it is with this vision in mind that we welcome you to share a relaxing and enjoyable experience at this animal farm we call home. We welcome you to Plum Loco!
OUR ANIMAL FAMILY
Plum Loco is founded on the concept that “animals are people too”. We provide a permanent and loving home to a variety of farm animals as they live out their natural lives. Our animals include horses, ponies, donkeys, miniature horses, goats, sheep, piggies and geese. All our animals are safely confined behind their fencing and enjoy the petting, feeding and attention from our visitors. Feed pails may be purchased at the ticket-booth – where visitors receive instructions of how to safely pet and feed our critters.
FEATURES AND ACTIVITIES
Nestled in the heartland of Northern Door’s farming community, Plum Loco is off the beaten path of traffic and crowds. Surrounded by rolling farmland, visitors comment on the natural beauty and relaxing setting. Plum Loco offers visitors a grassy picnic area with rustic cedar-log gazebos, ample seating, and a wide variety of activities for all ages, such as lawn games, board games, and more.
PLAY FARM VILLAGE
One of our most popular features is our Play Farm Village that was designed for the young at heart. Adjacent to the picnic area, families will find a series of authentic, child-sized buildings – stocked full of hand’s on, role-playing equipment – including a Farm House, Barn, Country Vet Clinic, 1950’s Diner, General Store and Livery Stable. Parents and grandparents alike, delight in watching the children explore their imaginations while they relax.
THE TICKET BOOTH
From our ticket booth, visitors may purchase drinks, snacks, toys, and of course, Plum Loco tee/sweat shirts in children and adult sizes - all reasonably priced. We also provide feed for our animals where visitors may purchase feed pails of grain and fresh carrots sticks.
AUTUMN ACTIVITIES
Each fall, Plum Loco celebrates the fall season with festive decorations of corn stalks, straw bales, pumpkins, and scare-crows to compliment the colorful array of trees surrounding the facility. Beginning in mid to late September, visitors may choose to engage in Pumpkin Painting and take home their masterpieces!
