What an amazing day! We'd like to extend a huge thank you to the Vaux Hall Farm Foundation for inviting Salty Critters ESVA Farm & Petting Zoo to be part of your Family Fun Day.

We had such a great time meeting so many wonderful families, seeing all the smiling faces, and sharing our furry and feathered friends with everyone. Watching the kids laugh, learn, and make memories with the animals is exactly why we love what we do.

A big thank you to everyone who stopped by our petting zoo, gave the animals some love, asked questions, and supported our small business. We truly appreciate each and every one of you.

We also enjoyed being alongside so many fantastic local vendors who helped make the event such a success.

We can't wait to see everyone again soon at another event. Thank you again for making us feel so welcome!
