Franklin Farm

Experience farm life in the middle of Boston! This habitat features a petting zoo, where children can see and touch friendly goats in the warmer weather. Explore the brooder building, where newly-hatched chicks keep warm, and visit the chicken coop to greet several species of chickens. The main barn houses ponies, Guinea hogs, donkeys, sheep and goats.
