Many children have never had the opportunity to visit a farm, feed the animals, and ride a pony. Wild Oats Farm offers a healthy alternative for a memorable children’s party, special occasion, or educational, hands-on, family activity.
Parties
At a Wild Oats Farm Party, the children not only brush and ride their pony, they can interact with the animals, and round it all off with a bit of quiet time in the petting farm.
Our ponies are well behaved and have calm, loving natures. They enjoy attention from children, and it’s incredible to see how the children’s confidence grows as they interact with them. We encourage the children to learn about the ponies and take away with them treasured memories of great party experience.
There is a riding weight limit of 105KG maximum.
