Lil' Bit of Life is a family-owned urban miniature-horse and animal farm in Mount Dora that hosts educational kids' camps and a 'farm school,' plus a Pony Pals Club that teaches young children to ride. Camp and program activities give kids hands-on responsibility caring for miniature horses, goats, sheep, pigs, and other animals while building confidence and leadership skills. The farm also offers field trips for homeschoolers, scouts, and daycares (by reservation).

Powered by GoogleWe love Lil' Bit of Life! As a neighboring, family-owned and operated business, we have collaborated on multiple projects together, and 2 of our children have been active with their farm school, 4-H, and other community events. Rod & Tracey and their team of students and volunteers are some of the hardest-working, most genuinely caring people we know, and we are grateful for the blessing they are to our family and to Mount Dora!
We always have such a wonderful experience visiting this farm! It’s truly a special place, and it’s clear how much love and care goes into everything there. Every animal we interact with is gentle, kind, and incredibly patient—even with excited little toddlers in their spaces and faces. The volunteers — made up of mostly children and young adults— are also so sweet and welcoming, and you can tell they genuinely enjoy being there, which really reflects the heart and leadership behind the farm. We’re so grateful that the owners open their gates to the community, and go above and beyond to offer fun themed events. Open farm days are seriously the best and so much fun! I’d go without my kids if I had a sitter :-D It’s a wonderful place for families, and it also provides such a great opportunity for children and tweens to volunteer and learn how to care for animals, work hard, and manage responsibilities. We’re already looking forward to going back!
I took my babies to the toddler event at the farm and we had the BEST time! We had the best day ever seeing all the farm animals and being surrounded by nature. We felt very welcome and we cannot wait to be back soon!
Took my 4 year old grandson to the farm today. He had the best time. He loved riding the pony, Tinkerbell, visiting and meeting all the animals, and Getting to sit on the tractor. Everyone was so friendly, from the owner, the volunteers and the guests in attendance. It was a very organized event. My grandson cant stop talking about this special day!
Our youth group from Trinity Church of Opelika, AL had the wonderful opportunity to serve on a 3-day mission at the farm—and we loved every moment of it! During our time there, we built a run-through stall for the older horses, cleared and burned a large fallen oak branch, gave the horse fence a fresh coat of paint, painted a mural on one of the barns, and spread mulch along the main walkway where the animals stay. This farm does incredible work, and we were honored to lend a hand. Thank you, Rod and Tracey, for welcoming us and allowing us to be part of such meaningful service!
