Parkside Farm

"Nicole is extremely knowledgeable about all her animals and takes such good care of them! You can tell they are all happy, healthy and loved. The farm itself is lovely, and my friends and I all had a wonderful time getting to know all about the critters that live there! I would highly recommend a tour to anyone who is an animal lover."

"We took our 13yo daughter to the animal joy session with Nicole and it was a wonderful experience. She was very friendly and made us feel right at home. During our visit we were able to see and hold the bunnies, chickens and two adorable baby goats. All of the adult goats were friendly as well and loved the snacks Nicole supplied for us to give them. Nicole is highly knowledgeable and we learned so much about the animals and the history of the farm. Definitely worth the trip!"

"Our young patrons loved meeting the goats and being able to interact with them. This program is great for a variety of crowd sizes and levels of interest. Patrons who attended the program found it to be informative and friendly, and branch staff all enjoyed working with Nicole to get the program set up. Nicole makes running the program incredibly easy and is amazing at interacting with attendees."

"Received all positive feedback. Very engaging and many, many families enjoyed this event very much. Highlight of the Jump for JOY Program® was the smiles on all the children's faces when they interacted with the goats. Definitely recommend to other businesses or event coordinators considering the Jump for JOY Program® for their organization."

"Everyone LOVED it (Jump for JOY Program®) very much!!! It was a wonderful experience for everyone-even children in strollers and wheelchairs could get close to the goats that were held by an adult. Nicole is very easy to work with-knowledgeable and friendly. The goats are adorable and a big hit with children and adults alike! Worth every penny!"

​"I just wanted to let you know that the farm tour was considered a huge success for our Cadet club. I wasn't sure how much they would like it, but it was a big hit. You heard one participant say that he wants Parkside Farm to be an outing for us every year. I think others felt the same. Thanks again, for showing us all the interesting aspects of your farm, and especially you goats. Thanks too, for your testimony during the presentation. It really reinforces everything we try to teach the Cadets all year. "

"Our 3 kids can be pretty uncooperative for photos, but Nicole handled it so well! She was patient and ready for moment when they finally all looked AND smiled. The goats were also very calming for my sensory needs kiddo. The property is beautiful with several great photo locations. I am very happy with how the photos turned out! "

"Everyone loved the goats! It was such a great addition to our mother’s day program. Everyone enjoyed learning about the goats and interacting with the pygmy goats. It was interesting to learn about what pygmy goats eat, comeback in terms of popularity in Michigan, and care/routines. The residents are still talking about the goats! Definitely book Nicole and her goats! Nicole does a great job interacting with the crowd and answering questions and the goats are entertaining and adorable!"
