About this Event

Fredericksburg Exotic Game Farm Experience & Overnight Stay

Become a Ranch Hand for a Day!

Become a Ranch Hand for a Day on the Fredericksburg Game Farm!

This experience is limited to ten guests to maximize the experience. We are a veteran and family owned working farm and licensed USDA facility in Fredericksburg Texas. You will work alongside our Ranch Manager to accomplish the following tasks:


  • Collect Forage for Lemurs and Cappybara
  • Collect and Wash Chicken Eggs from the Coop
  • Feed, Water, Brush our Rescue Horse and Pony
  • Slop our Family of Kune Kune Hogs
  • Learn to Trim Goat Hooves and Deworm the Herd
  • Hay and Grain our Buffalo Herd, Zebra and other Exotics
  • With over 300 animals on property, things are subject to change. And they do.

Lodging and meals are included for one day and night! We ask that you arrive promptly by 9 AM the day of your experience. You will begin your list of chores with the Ranch Manager NLT then 10 AM the same day. The animals have a schedule and are impatient, we therefore do not wait for late arrivals. And there are no refunds. This portion of your day will last until early afternoon. Dress appropriately.

For those who purchase the Lodging Included Option (and after you have earned your keep) you will be able to check in to your complimentary Bunk House by 3PM. One bedroom units are provided with private bathrooms. 

After a day of chores, a wine tasting (for the 21+ guests) will be provided at Grapetown Vineyard and a late Lunch or Dinner will be available at your leisure at Bankersmith Saloon (Kitchen closes at 9 PM - Saloon closes at 9 PM).


Hands on Farm Experience with Lodging: $325 Per Person

Hands on Farm Experience without Lodging: $175 Per Person
