Production Barns
Help Critter Barn share the story of agriculture through our modern production barns.
​
Plaques will proudly display your name in the barns if you choose to be a supporter.
Layer Barn
Step inside our brand-new Layer Barn, home to over 500 hens living in a cage-free environment. Through large viewing windows, you can watch our hens in their biosecure space, roaming freely and laying fresh eggs.
Then, follow the journey of an egg from hen to carton as you walk around to see our state-of-the-art egg washing and packaging equipment in action. This interactive experience showcases modern egg production while prioritizing the health and well-being of our hens.
Turkey Barn
Step inside our new Turkey Barn, where we plan to raise 200 turkeys each year from tiny poults to full-grown birds. Through large viewing windows, you can watch them grow in a safe, well-managed environment, learning about their care, diet, and the journey from farm to table.
Broiler Chicken Barn
The tiny chicks you hold during your visit will grow up in our new Broiler Chicken Barn, where we plan to raise over 1,300 chickens each year. This barn provides a safe, comfortable environment designed to support their growth with proper care and nutrition.
Dairy Barn
Step into our new Dairy Barn, where we will raise 12 dairy calves each year with the best care and nutrition. Watch as our cows are milked daily, learn about modern dairy farming, and even visit with their calves up close.
Before you leave, don’t forget to take home a fresh gallon of milk!
Hog Barn
Visit our new Hog Barn, where the journey begins with baby piglets born right here on the farm. Watch as they grow, thriving in a well-managed environment, until they reach 270 pounds and are ready for market.
​
Our advanced students will have the unique opportunity to scrub in and experience hands-on learning about hog management and biosecurity.
Lambing & 4-H Barn
Our new Lambing Barn will be a key addition to our existing lambing building, providing a heated space where ewes and their newborn lambs can grow. This controlled environment ensures that our lambs have the best start, offering warmth and comfort during their early stages of life. ​
​
This building will also double as a 4-H Barn, offering much-needed space for students raising animals for their 4-H projects to show at the local fair.
