A day in Hava's farm - attraction review

בס"ד

Near Kibbutz Hafetz Haim, Israel, there's a friendly little farm called Hava's farm.
On the farm, you'll find many family activities, even ones suited for grown-ups.

I was invited to review the farm, and we arrived four grown-ups above the age of twenty.

First, we went to the milking cabin, where we met grandma Hava, who is in charge of the place with the rest of her family and Kibbutz Hafetz Haim.  Grandma Hava explained the kids about the milking process in a fun and educational way.

On the farm, you'll find a petting zoo, Gymboree playground for kids that was very busy as you can see and donkey riding.

And there's even an area with snakes, where you get to pet them and get an explanation about them.
I got the chance to pet one and even put it around my neck - YIKES.

Around the farm, you will find many kinds of animals, and near each cage, you can see a sign with a short explanation about that animal: her name's origin, what she eats, etc. For now, the explanations are only in Hebrew.

The place is really charming, and I highly recommend it. But it's preferred to come on not much of a warm day since most of the activities are outdoor under the beating sun.
