Trillium Farms is a farm in Ranger, Georgia, focused on providing an interactive experience with animals, particularly for children, including those with special needs. The farm offers educational opportunities and events, allowing visitors to engage with various farm animals in a natural setting. It operates primarily on donations and emphasizes a friendly, community-oriented atmosphere.
To the person who mentioned in their review that human trafficking happens here, you are referring to a farm of the same name in Ohio, which is not associated with Trilliam farms in Ranger, Georgia. This farm in Georgia is run by a man, Gary Wasmer, who with some help, works very, very hard to pay for the animals' feed and upkeep, and to maintain the grounds, so that the farm stays open. Gary keeps the farm going so that children, especially those with special needs, can experience animals and nature up close. Gary has a heart of gold, is generous, friendly, and takes some of the animals to schools to let children pet and stroke them. He also cares for the animals and works his butt off to pay for everything. The farm animals may (and some may not) approach adults and children because they have been treated with respect, and will feel comfortable around some people. When I last went to Trillium Farms in 2016, all of the animals looked healthy, and they are farm animals that aren't being fattened-up, therefore some of them will look a little thinner than those bred to provide food, milk, and for reproduction. If you show up on a weekend afternoon with your family, it is going to be a very different experience compared with being shown around an exhibit at the High Museum in Atlanta. The place is safe to visit, it is not pristine because it is a farm where there is dirt, the farm isn't paved, the buildings are made of wood, and the animals have some freedom to roam, instead of being penned-in; they don't need supervision because they co-exist and are safe. I have attended several of Gary's Christmas events, held usually on the 2nd week of December each year, and kids enjoy themselves, the decorations are rustic, beautiful, and the atmosphere is peaceful, gentle, and friendly. Visit the website, and give Gary a call with any questions.
Thought this would be a nice little day trip for the kids. We were wrong. First off, there is no sign to tell you that you've arrived; we found it by pure luck. Secondly, the animals look like they just roam around on their own with no supervision whatsoever. They're clearly hungry, which is evident by the way they came running when we walked up. The farm itself is in severe disrepair, with junk lying everywhere. Needless to say, the kids were disappointed and we wasted our gas.
I can’t say too much except this is the best interactive learning farm that I have ever had the privilege to visit and the way that it run and all the events that can be set up are for all ages you will see goats and sheep and horses also bulls. Also while there ask to see Petie he amazing and very loving this has it all and it all run on donations so please give this farm a visit...
I went here on a school field trip once, and the owners were nice, let us in the pen with the goats, and even get close to the donkeys, there are about 4 of them. I would reccomend this place for anyone looking to spend the day with their kids and see animals.
Plenty of animals will work with special needs children
MY GRANDKIDS LOVE THIS PLACE EVERY ONE IS SO NICE AN FRIENDLY
