ZEELAND TWP., MI (WHTC-AM/FM) – An attraction along the Lakeshore is celebrating a new home.
The Critter Barn is hosting a “Barnyard Bash” this Saturday (May 15, 2021) at its new location off of 80th Avenue, between Chicago Drive and Felch Street just east of Zeeland. From 1 PM to 4 PM, visitors will be admitted free in order to tour the main building and learn more about future plans, with a variety of additional attractions that will augment the farm animals that all members of the family can interact with.
“We got one large barn up,” said Critter Barn founder Mary Rottschafer on “WHTC Morning News” during a Monday appearance. “There’s been a lot of work done on that (building), and it’s getting close to completion. Now we have other buildings popping up that are going to around that large barn, so it makes (this) a kind of ‘campus’ farm. It’s exciting to celebrate not only the progress, but to make people aware that we have continued to make progress.”
Rottschafer is hopeful of moving the majority of Critter Farm operations from its Adams Street site to the new location later this year, but said that construction may last for “another couple of years.”
