Birthday Party at the Farm
Treat your child to a fun-filled farm party at Allaire Community Farm! We have a unique venue in Wall Township, NJ for birthdays seasonally from April to November. Your child and guests will visit our petting zoo, feed the animals, gather eggs in our hen house, milk our mechanical cow, and take a scenic wagon ride around our 25 acres.
