An Afternoon at Grant’s Farm

Yesterday afternoon, we took a field trip to Grant’s Farm. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: Grant’s Farm is one of my very favorite places to go, and it’s not just because I can get a free beer while I’m there. It’s a great family destination. Extremely affordable–yes, you have to pay for parking, but park entry is free, the tram ride is free, the shows are free, the walk through the Tier Garten is free, and you can see all the old Busch carriages and visit the Clydesdales for…you guessed it…zero dollars! If you want to add to your experience, though, there are things you can spend money on…feeding the goats, riding the carousel, having your picture taken with a Clydesdale, or just buying lunch at the Bauernhof. There are even several gift shops to give you great souvenir options if you like that kind of thing.

My favorite part about Grant’s Farm, though, is that every time we go there, we see something new.
