Last trip to White Fence Farms tonight.

An area destination is going out of business at the end of the year. They weren't taking reservations so the wait was looooooooong. I'm not quite sure why they are calling it quits. They seem to always be busy, even before announcing closing. It's about 30-40 bucks per adult plus all the extra stuff for sale in the gift shop. Too bad, it's a great place for kids. I hear its all getting knocked down. Capitalism and progress.

Busy != profit, unfortunately.

I wonder if they, like CPW, relies too much on one area of the business to prop up another.

I took my family one last time on Black Friday and it was very disappointing. We’ve gone every so often for years and while often busy, the service and food have always been good... until this last trip. It was a long wait for what amounted to tired, poorly seasoned fried chicken that I didn’t even want to pay for much less the price they charged.
I’ve always loved the place, but if their primary trouble is getting good people to run it, then I understand and support them closing. I’d much rather see it close than be ruined and stay open for a longer time.

Never heard of it so I had to look it up.. Did they charge admission just to get in? There’s no way a restaurant on it’s own could fund an operation like that.

So it is a petting zoo and a restaurant? With a live band? Really?

It was a petting zoo. But with them closing, they're offering exotic game meats as a thank you to their long time customers.

Maybe Casa Bonita will buy the property and give having a second location a try again.
