Nature

In addition to viewing, petting, and feeding our animals, the Randall Oaks Zoo offers unique programs for children of all ages. The goal of our Nature & Zoo programs is to educate and encourage children to participate in the preservation of our natural areas and the animals that live within them through hands-on projects and activities.

Thanksgiving Pies 48332

Everyone loves pie! Make pies for the goats, camel, alpacas, sheep, cows, and pig with healthy foods and see how they enjoy your creations. We will "bake" first and then tour the Zoo to share the joy of the season. The fee includes a trip to the Zoo. One parent is welcome to join free of charge.
