Pony rides, farm animals, and hands-on fun for little ones at a real working Miami farm.
The Little Farm is a working farm in Miami where kids can get genuinely close to animals, not just look at them through a fence. Goats, ponies, donkeys, and more are part of the daily lineup. The staff is friendly and hands-on, and if there's something specific your kid wants to see or do, just ask.
Pony rides are a big draw, and the farm also offers horseback riding for older kids. There's a playground on site and a bathroom, which parents of toddlers will appreciate more than they expect to. Bring your own snacks and drinks since food options on site are limited.
The farm hosts seasonal events too. Easter celebrations, holiday visits with Santa in December, and private birthday parties where you can book the whole place for your group. That private rental option is a real perk if you want a low-stress party venue with built-in entertainment.
It's a small operation, which is part of the charm. Nothing overwhelming, no massive crowds, just a calm and well-kept farm where a two-year-old can feed a goat and feel like the most accomplished person alive. Kids roughly two to ten tend to get the most out of it.
Miami sits about 45 minutes from the main entrance to Everglades National Park, so The Little Farm fits naturally into a South Florida weekend that includes some time in the park. A morning here, an afternoon on an Everglades airboat. That's a solid day for a family.

We love the Little Farm. We go about twice a year, and always have such a fun time! It is perfect for kids aged 2-10. We love the petting zoo, pony rides, and the fact that you can get up close and personal with different types of farm animals. This year we went for the Easter celebration and it was perfect! Not too many kids, so everyone got personal time with the Easter Bunny and sufficient eggs during the Easter egg hunt.

Very cute! Went here for a bday party and we had the whole farm to ourselves. Loved all the animals. Not sure if the donkeys leg was hurt or not but all of the other animals looked very well taken care of. Lots of goats!!! A bathroom on site. Playground on site. Pony rides, horseback riding.

Peaceful, small, and well kept farm! We took our 2 year old daughter and she had such a great time. The farmers were friendly and accommodating. If you need something or want to see something specifically, just ask them! Animals all looked well taken care of. I recommend taking your own food! They do sell water, drinks, popsicle, other local things.

It was nice to be out and seeing the farm animals and we were able to feed them by hand. There is no petting zoo currently (although it says there is). My kid was able to ride the pony also. I feel this place can attract more people if it offered other things such as food, drinks, maybe bounce house or water area, or other attractions and activities, but I understand every place has it's things. There is ample parking, but we were the only ones here from what I saw.

We took our 7 month old son to the farm to be able to see and pet some farm animals. The farm experience was amazing, and the staff were very friendly and understanding! The animals seemed happy and we get to meet the eldest pony they have ! We went in December so they had a Santa! I highly recommend anyone with children to visit this farm, it is not crowded and spacious and offers a lot for children!
Cuban-style fried fish and fresh seafood served from a food truck kitchen with a laid-back tented patio.
A century-old village with gardens, antique shops, a tea house, and a Sunday farmer's market that feels worlds away from Miami.
An 8.7-mile paved trail for walking, biking, and skating with water views and wildlife all the way to Black Point Marina.
A living rainforest where the monkeys roam free and you're the one in the cage.
A working farm with a petting zoo, pedal buggies, pony rides, and a craft brewery, all on one surprisingly fun Miami property.
A lively bar and nightclub spot where groups come to drink, dance, and stay a while.
