Definitely recommend -- you'll fall in love with the animals! - Wonderful! You'll fall in love with the animals! We got to hold a baby goat born earlier that day, pet and scratch pigs' bellies, feed the horse, and more. The animals each have their own beautiful personalities. The host was very knowledgeable and answered our many questions. We learned a lot and had a lovely time!

Farm fun not far from home! - My sister asked if I wanted to go visit a farm that kept endangered pigs near her home and I was curious and had no idea what to expect and was surprised there was even such a place so close by so I said sure! It ended up being a blast and we had loads of laughs and I'm very glad we went! Upon arrival to the quaint little farm on a cool overcast summer day that was just a stone's throw from nearby suburbs, we were greeted at the automated gate by some very welcoming and super friendly Pyrenees pups as well as a few smiling corgis! Corgis!! The dogs were well mannered and did not jump up on the car doors or jump up on us when we got out! After being greeted by the pups, we were greeted by a couple of well-mannered and polite gentlemen by the names of Grayson and Cutter who guided us through the grounds, kept us safely entertained with the stories of all those crafty animals and let us hand feed all the cute critters. They were great, spoke clearly and loudly enough for our party to hear their safety instructions as well! We had a blast learning about the endangered KuneKune pigs whose species hail from New Zealand of all places from Michelle, the owner. She was very kind and welcoming and answered our loads of questions. She said that all the pigs know their names and acted like any household dog would! They were all very friendly and well cared for as well as the miniature horse rescue and the pair of jersey cows who were very happy to see us especially when we started feeding them. Even the rooster came out to say hello! It rained for a short time during our visit so make sure to bring umbrellas or a rain poncho and maybe rubber soled shoes and some towels if you think it's gonna rain. There was cover nearby where we gathered to chat with Michelle as it rained and we were able to continue to grill her about the history of the place. She really cares about her animals and was very engaging with all the questions we threw at her. The kids had a blast petting all the animals and playing the little tiki toss ring toss game as we waited for the rain to stop. They've also got some tiny houses you can rent there and wake up to the sounds of roosters as your alarm clock! All areas were accessible as far as I could tell and the driveway was nicely paved down to the tiny houses, barnyard and lake. We also got a glimpse of a new building where they plan to host small events. We all enjoyed the tour and came to have a new appreciation for what it takes to care for animals and to run a farm! I know ill definitely be visiting again for a staycation in one of those well appointed tiny houses someday!

Cutest Little Pig Farm in Texas - It was a very nice tour Jayden was very knowledgeable of the pigs, cows and other animals. The corgis running down the hill did it for me! They are so cute and friendly! Actually all the animals were very friendly. It was a fun experience! Thank y'all!!

Worth the Visit! - Such a great experience! We saw so many more animals than just the adorable pigs. Grayson greeted us kindly (and with waters which was much appreciated during this June heat in Austin!) and then walked us down to where most of the livestock that we saw were hanging out, all while telling us about the farm. The owners also came down and visited with us for most of our tour and also shared a lot about the animals and how many of them are rescues. highly recommend!

Hands-on experience with farm animals - We had a great time with the animals at KuneKune Pig farm. Our guide, Jayden, was super friendly and informative about the farm. We got to pet and feed the animals. The place is a small-family working farm so you’ll see the real thing instead of a tourist attraction. Highly recommend!

Recommend! - Michelle and her staff warmly welcomed us to her homestead farm and we were pleasantly surprised that we had a private tour that day. They passionately shared about their animals and we got to pet and feed them. Only thing to know ahead of time is that while there are several adorable Kune Kune pigs, you’ll also meet cows, sheep, and more. Worth a visit!

Best Clucking Tour and Farm! - We booked a tour just by calling (trip advisor has weird dates/times, you can just call and book any day!) The farm was beautiful and peaceful, we got to feed the cows and pigs and corgis, hold baby chicks, the owner Michelle is incredibly informative and sweet! We were walked around the property by the kindest girl working as a farm hand! 10/10 this place is a hidden gem worth all your time!!

Farm animal fun. - Two lovely young ladies showed us all around the farm. We got to see not only the pigs but cows, sheep, a miniature pony, ducks and chickens while two Corgis followed along. We got to feed the cows and the sheep and I was so excited to hold a week old lamb. So much fun. They also rent out a couple of tiny houses on the property which I will certainly look into if we return to the Austin area. Loved it. Thank you girls for making it a fun day.
