Grant's Farm Tour of St. Louis #2
http://www.grantsfarm.com/
Description from their website:
"There are many exciting animal encounters possible at Grant's Farm, the 281-acre ancestral home of the Busch family, located just south of the city of St. Louis. The Farm is home to more than 900 animals representing more than 100 different species. Grant's Farm, operated by Anheuser-Busch, Inc., has been a St. Louis tradition for over five decades. More than 24 million guests have visited this popular family attraction during its history.
The Farm takes its name from our 18th President of the United States, Ulysses S. Grant. In the 1850s, Grant founded and farmed a portion of the 281 acres. Today, this land is home to Grant's Farm and is preserved as a living symbol of the Busch family's love for animals and Anheuser-Busch's (aka owner company of Budweiser) commitment to wildlife conservation and preservation. Admission to Grant's Farm is free to all ages. Reservations are not required."
One thing I love about St. Louis is that a lot of things are FREE, more of which I will include on this tour! :D We used to come here al the time when we lived in Crestwood (one of the subs of St. Louis). This is where they put the Budweiser clydesdales out to pasture and there is a tram that takes visitors through a safari like experience complete with zebras. At the end of the trip through the property, there is a large petting zoo with huge turtles, goats, rabbits, elephants and birds. There is also a museum type area in a barn with old carriages.
