We LOVE Davis Farmland. There is a lot to do. If you can go midweek, pricing is better and it is definitely less crowded too!

The Animal Rescue Center in Bolton is a favorite of ours. This year, they are offering a Capybara encounter at their sister location. My son did his final paper of the year on Capybaras so we plan to surprise him to go see it.

Southwick's Zoo is our favorite zoo. We always end up here on the hottest day but there is a decent amount of shade. In addition to the animals, there are also rides and games (for an additional fee).
