Grant’s Farm has welcomed five adorable new Clydesdales to the farm! The foals are just six months old and are on public display at the Clydesdales stables on Thursday, Aug. 18, Friday, Aug. 19 and Sunday, Aug. 21. Grant's Farm is closed on Saturday, Aug. 20.
Visitors can see them when they visit Grant’s Farm, at the back end of the parking lot near the stables. After Aug 21, the foals will be moved to the big fields with the adult horses, so they'll be more difficult to see.
Visitors can also meet, greet and pose for photos with one of the world-famous Clydesdales at the Bauernhof courtyard.
The animal curator or one of the Clydesdale specialists would be happy to share fun facts on the care and training of these beautiful "little" Clydesdales that already weigh several hundred pounds.
Admission is free. Parking is $15 when purchased in advance. Reserve a parking pass at grantsfarm.com
