Welcome to Old McDonald's Farm!
In 1986, “The Farmer’s Wife”, Nancy Robbins, founded Old
McDonald’s Farm as a way to contribute to the family’s income while also being
home with her then small children. Nancy, being raised in the city of Watertown
herself, had a vision to provide an opportunity for the non-farming public to
experience first-hand the joy of the country, animals and agriculture.
Today, Old McDonald’s Farm has set the stage for an educational, agricultural, hands- on adventure for “kids” of all ages! At Old McDonald’s Farm, we take pleasure in providing kids and kids-at-heart with opportunities to learn about and have fun with agriculture. Old McDonald’s Farm is all hands-on, from feeding our huge cows, to petting and walking amongst dozens of goats, from touring our modern dairy farm, to visiting our special reindeer!
