What Else Does Old MacDonald's Offer?

Old MacDonald's offers children's birthday parties; you can contact them for more information by contacting them at (806) 283-8965. Additionally, the farm has several animals to interact with, pet, and ride (certainly depending on the animal, I wouldn't try it with an emu). They will likely also have concessions available, but you may want to bring water bottles and sunscreen to keep the kiddos cool and unsunburnt.
