A Family Farm.
A Lifelong Mission.
For over 15 years, Ford Family Farms has been servicing the Central Valley and growing smiles for all ages. From Agri-Education to mobile services.
Born from a Love of the Land
Ford Family Farms started the way most great things do — with a simple idea and a whole lot of heart. Ford Farms is a 1st Generation family owned and operated business, located in Lindsay, CA. Established in 2010, We were the first mobile petting zoo & hand guided pony rides in the Tulare, Kings & Inyo County.
Our family business started in 2010 and has faithfully continued to grow and educate kids and adults all over the Central Valley. Ford Farms is located on the outskirts of Exeter in Lindsay, Ca 10 miles East of Tulare. The historic location was once a Frontier Land & in the 1950's the property was a movie prop set for Western Films. The location was built in the 30's for kids and adults to come and enjoy quality time together! During WWII the location was a landing site for aircraft's and had a communication tower that still stands on the south side of the property.
Today, Ford Family Farms serves thousands of families and students every year, offering everything from curriculum-aligned field trips to Gold Rush adventures, birthday parties, and mobile petting zoos. But the mission has never changed: give every child and adult a genuine, joyful connection to the farm and agriculture.
"We don't just want kids to visit a farm. We want them to feel like they belong here."
