Very nice farm and wonderful place to go with your family. It’s a great place to escape from urban life and to enjoy the beauty of each season. Don’t forget to visit the museum and the old house. There are a lot things you would like to see.

I bring my kids here weekly weather permitting. It's such a beautiful peaceful place. There's ppl who dress up from a different time era( not sure which one) there's paths that lead to a lake ,log cabin, a beautiful park and nature center. It would be great if they added sculptures along the paths

Excelente, nice people good service

Awesome place to walk around! kids had a good time nice different trails definitely coming back it was our second time here! if you like nature this is the place to come walk around and explore

Great walk around nature, a quiet place to relax and unwind. Buildings and farms bring back the scenery from the past when people lived without electricity. Good place for kids and families.

Feel like you're in the 1880s. History, farm animal's and walking areas. Love this place. Free for everyone👍

Kid friendly. Lots of places to explore!

Beautiful sights, sounds, and sensations of nature, therapeutic experience at Spring Valley Nature Center and Volkening Heritage Farm

Always a great time to visit , my boys love it here . Almost 2 almost 4

Wonderful grounds, scenic trails. Informative and quaint farm attractions. We had a great time today taking a family walk. Highly recommend checking out the grounds.

Beautiful wooded area and farm with animals. I have been here many times and love it. Lots of trails to walk. Beautful lake.

Great way of looking at the way of living 100 years ago

Beautiful place. It’s kind a surprising how close to the city you can get a real farm experience. At the weekend you can purchase fresh eggs, today (Wednesday) I bought fresh cucumbers (they are amazing!) Don’t forget to donate some money for them, they’re doing great job and entrance is free. :)

Like the park but the trails are so rough its hard to transport kids on the farmy terrian, the graveled rock roads just sucks. My kids fell asleep in the wagon on way back from playground but woke up when we hit the graveled road. Playground is out of this world imaginative. It is so cool. I wish there was a shorter route to get to the playground and theres no flippin’ food at the farm, NONE. No water, we found the nature center had a gatorade vending machine and water fountain and chips at the nature gift shop, but man , starvin’ place needs a food court OBVIOUSLY

So fun! 2 yo enjoyed seeing chickens, cows, and pigs. The kind and knowledgeable staff told us all about the animals that were there.

Fun place to walk around. We loved the live farm animals, exploring the two story home, and a good nature walk!

Hidden gem, everything's free and walkable for the little kids.. stroller for under 2.

A great alternative to any forest preserve, the Volkening Farm offers lots of walking paths, great views,and a wonderful park for the little ones (admission collected at the entrance). You can easily spend several hours there and the kids won't get bored!

Place was amazing, plenty of historical items and artefacts to see - volunteer guides were friendly (props to Andrea) Couple of animal smells here and there, a decent amount of walking, sufficient washrooms and amenities - pack a small snack if you're going to see everything!

Great place to walk. Very pretty and lots of different things to see

Great place for all to enjoy Living history with farm animals historic farm and out buildings. Chickens are super popular with the kiddos. A nice little museum store as well.

Came here during some downtime at a business meeting a few blocks away. Neat farm with a few animals. Enjoyed looking at the historic buildings and "how things used to be" during simpler times.

My kids always love coming here to see the animals

LOVE walking the trails. Definitely a local treasure. Thank you to those who keep it.

Beautiful trails in the forest preserve, lovely farm place to come with kids, seasonal entertainment programs.

Always enjoyable

Love this farm especially the gift shop small but with a variety of inexpensive snacks and small gifts.

Such a great natural place amongst the community. Enjoyed the farms and the animals. And the totally serene atmosphere to enjoy nature at its very best
