About the San Diego Animal Sanctuary and Farm

Reservations are no longer required. Guests can feed orchard hay through or over the fence for $5/bucket.

Single day admission is $38 for adults and $20 for kids (children under 2-years are free); seniors (65+) are $28. Parking is complimentary. To buy tickets, visit here.

The Farm is located at 5178 Japatul Spur in Alpine (91901). For more information, visit here.
