The Urban Farm
Private
The Urban Farm is a nonprofit working farm and educational campus at 10200 Smith Rd in Denver, teaching equine education, animal husbandry and horticulture. It runs ten week-long summer camps for ages 4-13 from early June through mid-August, where campers work with goats, sheep, chickens, donkeys and more than a dozen horses. Separate equine camps are grouped by riding experience, including a Pony Pals introduction for ages 5-7 with no prior riding that mixes mounted and unmounted lessons, and follow-on camps for returning riders. A full-day horsemanship camp is offered for ages 8 and up.

★LuisSmelled bad made us work… almost like a FARM would?? Yes this is about Adrian and I’m leaving 3 good reviews to make up for this one! On a real note everyone was respectful and king and I had an amazing time with my team! I really hope we visit here again it keeps us humble and reminds me of the value of a hard days work! Great place!
★★★★★Michelle BensonOur family has loved being a part of the monthly events at The Urban Farm. Our kids have participated in the Poultry Club and have gained so many new skills, and most importantly confidence. They have learned how to care for the animals and have developed the ability to confidently present and share their knowledge about their chickens. The staff is all fantastic. They really care about the animals but they also all seem to have backgrounds in working with kids. We also love how accessible the farm is, right in the heart of the neighborhood, making it easy for families to stay connected to agriculture, animals, and hands-on learning. Such a wonderful community resource!
★★★★★Shi XiaI’ve been here twice and both times had a fantastic experience. Super friendly staff. You can also watch farm animals up close or interact with them if the farm has an event.
★★★★★Derek OlivasThis is a little hidden gem I never knew about. This place is great for adults and kids! Plenty of animals to interact with and the garden is beautiful! I highly recommend this place. Also found out they do birthdays and you can volunteer. The staff is amazing and the animals are well fed and taken care of.
★★★★★Miley JoyceWe always love coming here to see the animals. My girl's especially enjoy when the staff let's them get in the pens with the animals! They have a great play area where we often have lunch.
