A year-round Kissimmee petting farm that adds a pumpkin patch in the fall — worth it for toddlers and animal-obsessed under-sixes, and an odd fit if pumpkins rather than livestock are the reason you are going.
$18 per person ages 2 and older; under 2 free. Group rates $12-$15 per person with advance reservation; annual pass $60. Pony rides $4 and animal feed $3-$6 extra. Credit cards only - no cash accepted.
Rough cost for a family of four: about $72.00 in admission alone at the posted starting rate, before pumpkins, food, parking or any add-on listed above. Most families end up well north of that once they are through the gate.
Green Meadows is a petting farm that adds a pumpkin patch, not a pumpkin patch that keeps some animals. That distinction decides whether the $18 a head is money well spent. If your four-year-old will spend forty minutes feeding a goat and another twenty watching the bunnies, this is a good morning. If the plan was a corn maze and a hayride through a field of orange, the farm’s own attraction list — cattle, alpacas, donkeys, pigs, bunnies, goats, sheep, horses, a hayride, a corn box, a playground and hay wagon slides — tells you plainly that it is not that place.
Wednesday to Friday, 10am to 1pm. Saturday and Sunday, 10am to 2pm. Closed Monday and Tuesday. That is a three- or four-hour daily window, and it is far shorter than almost any other farm on this site. There is no afternoon option, no evening option, and no way to make a lazy start work. Arrive at 11:30 on a Thursday and you have ninety minutes.
The upside of that constraint is real, though. A morning-only farm in Central Florida is a farm you visit before the heat and the afternoon storms arrive, which through September and October is the only sensible way to do any of this.
Eighteen dollars per person from age two, under-twos free, cards only. A family of four is $72 before a single cup of animal feed, which for a two-hour visit is not cheap — this is priced closer to the big ticketed festivals than to what it is. Two things pull it back toward reasonable: the fall patch advertises a free pumpkin to take home, which removes the per-pumpkin bill you would pay elsewhere, and the $60 annual pass changes the maths entirely for anyone local. If you have a toddler in Osceola County and any intention of coming back, the pass is the obvious purchase.
Groups booking in advance pay $12 to $15 per head. That is a meaningful discount and it is worth organising a second family into the trip to reach it.
The farm had not published 2026 pumpkin patch dates when we checked in August, and that matters more here than at a farm whose whole season is the patch. Green Meadows is open year-round regardless; the pumpkins are a seasonal overlay that may or may not be in place on the day you turn up. Call first if the patch is the reason you are going.
And the standard Florida caveat applies with force at a farm this small: Florida’s climate cannot produce a commercial fall pumpkin crop, so the pumpkins arrived on a truck. The animals, on the other hand, are entirely real and entirely the point.
The operating window is genuinely short: Wednesday to Friday 10am to 1pm, Saturday and Sunday 10am to 2pm, closed Mondays and Tuesdays. A weekday arrival at noon leaves you an hour. Go at 10am on a Wednesday, Thursday or Friday if you can — you get the same three-hour window everyone else gets, without the weekend load, and the morning is the only tolerable half of a Florida day in September or October anyway.
Two to three hours, which is effectively the whole day here given the closing times. The site is a petting farm rather than a festival, so once you have done the animals, the hayride, the corn box and the playground, you are done.
No crowd data available, and the farm's short daily window makes this harder to predict than usual: everyone who visits on a given day arrives inside the same three or four hours. Weekday mornings are the structurally quieter bet.
Not documented by the farm. Assume the standard Central Florida farm arrangement — grass or dirt rather than asphalt — and dress for mud if it has rained, which through September and October it regularly will have.
Not published. A petting farm on open ground with a tractor-pulled hayride means uneven surfaces and a step up into the wagon. Call (407) 994-2775 ahead of time if anyone in your group needs step-free access.
You want a corn maze, a big slide or anything for a child over about eight. There is no maze, no zipline and no large play build-out here. Also skip it if you were planning to pay cash — the farm takes credit cards only — or if you cannot make a morning, because the gates close at 1pm on weekdays.
It sits in Kissimmee, inside the Orlando theme-park corridor, so the practical pairing is with whatever else is already on your Osceola County day rather than with another farm. If you want a fuller fall festival with mazes and rides, that is a separate trip out to a larger farm — Green Meadows is a complement to one, not a substitute.
The farm had not published 2026 pumpkin patch dates when we last checked in August 2026. It runs as an annual seasonal event on top of the year-round petting farm, so the sensible move is to check the farm's own site or call (407) 994-2775 before driving out — do not assume a date from a listing site.
No. The farm is credit-card only, for admission and for extras like pony rides and animal feed.
It is one of the better options in the Kissimmee area for that age. The draw is close animal contact, a hayride, a corn box and a playground rather than large play structures, and the short opening hours suit a schedule built around a nap.
2026 dates had not been published when we last checked. In past seasons it has run: Wed-Sun (closed Mon-Tue). Check with the farm before driving out.
Admission starts at $18 per person. $18 per person ages 2 and older; under 2 free. Group rates $12-$15 per person with advance reservation; annual pass $60. Pony rides $4 and animal feed $3-$6 extra. Credit cards only - no cash accepted.
