Honey Bee Gardens Farm

Honey Bee Gardens Farm SEASON OPENS | May 29th @ 9am 🧑‍🌾🐷🐓🎉

We’re a small family farm in Downers Grove, IL with animals, fishing, boating, cut-flowers, produce, eggs & honey.

Come dig in a sandbox, or in the mud, nap on a rope swing, go fishing, pet a llama & have a campfire pie. Play in our themed playhouses & brush mini horses. We are a unique hybrid between a traditional playground, an animal sanctuary & an agricultural experience. We're private family farm, founded in 2019 by lifelong educators. Our founders designed and curated an agritourism experience that seeks to create a positive impact in the community but also cultivates an ethos of sustainability.
