I think this place is absolutely adorable. It makes me feel like I'm visiting a cute little town in farm county. But, nope- it's in Las Vegas, Sin City.
Admission is only $1 per person, but well worth it. They also accept donations since many of the animals are rescued and have been given a second chance at life. There are so many different animals living here in harmony: chickens, roosters, ducks, bunnies, goats, pigs, cows, horses, llamas, and more A beautiful white peacock was even strutting around amongst the visitors. The Farm isn't that big- but it is perfectly quaint.
If you don't want to pick your own produce at Gilcrease Orchards, they also sell locally grown produce, fruits and veggies, chicken and duck eggs, local honey, and baked goods. And it is all under the shade! An important feature especially during the cruel Vegas summers. There is plenty of shade here and plenty of places to sit. The people that I have met here (workers and visitors) have been so sweet and I truly felt like I was in a small town in the midwest. On our last visit, my husband and I were able to play a game of jenga (just saw the game on one of the many tables) while the kiddos played and explored.
I love it here. No doubt I will be back again and again. May have to make it at least every other week to replenish my egg supply. There is nothing like fresh eggs in the morning!
