Here's What People are Saying about Plum Loco!
On an extended visit to family in Door County, I had to get my 18 month old son out for adventures every day for our sanity. Plum Loco
was the best we found. The owners are so kind and loving to the
animals, and there is no sense of exploitation or even dirty pens. Their
love shines through, and the animals are healthy and well socialized.
The play yard with kid-sized tractors, rocking horses, and much more was
a huge hit, and they've set it up so grown ups can sit in the shade and
relax while the little ones do their thing safely. We went back a
second time, and had as much fun, and Jeremie even remembered my son's
name. I can't recommend it enough. These are real folks, really doing
what they love, or faking it so well that it doesn't matter. Next time we're in Door County, we'll be back." (Leah, Google Maps Review, October 2009).
"Plum Loco is a hidden treasure for adults and kids alike. It is owned by
a nice couple that takes great care in getting everything right. They
have a kind facility where none of the animals will ever end up on a
menu. The husband built all the animal environments...@ the pigs have an
A-frame and the goats have a Swiss chalet. The signs are adorable and
very informative. And, the animals are as kind as the owners...no biting
here. They have a great play area for small children with games,
playhouses, a giant farm animal set up and board games. You are welcomed
to spend the day and bring a picnic lunch. There is croquet, and other
yard games also. The wife is very attentive in the entrance booth
selling inexpensive treats for the animals, freeze pops and other
goodies. Once you try it, you'll be back for another visit. What a great
old fashioned get-a-way! We love Plum Loco."

"Your farm is absolutely fabulous! My 2 1/2 year old grandson and 12 year old granddaughter had a wonderful time! Door County needed this for a long, long time. Your attention to detail, cleanliness, pedal tractors and play houses were a HUGE HIT!! Thank you! Thank you!" (The Janda Family, August, 2007).
"Dear Hosts - We had the extreme pleasure of visiting your fun animal farm...
We want to thank you for your friendly and enthusiastic welcome and service. Our little grand girls had a ball! Lindsey (3yrs) was belly-laughing feeding the animals. They loved the pot-belly pigs, horses, goats, etc. Jeremie was friendly and accommodating. The little buildings, toys, play items were so fun and authentic! Lindsey said her favorite was the "purple phone" in the little house. Tiara (4 1/2 yrs) even hung the wash on the line! They treasure the little pigs we purchased. Thank you so much! Keep up the great business!" (The Strubs Family, July 2009).
"Just wanted to thank you both for your kindness and great visit to Plum Loco. We enjoyed very much talking with both of you as well as visiting, petting and feeding the animals." (The Berg Family, August 2009).
"We had a great time at Plum Loco! What a delightful day we had at your beautiful farm!" (The Girmax Family, June 2010).
"The gates and fenced in areas are all designed to so little hands can let go and explore the farm without moms or dads worrying about their safety. It's wonderful to see many of the local mothers sit and relax and have their children play with one another. Sometimes the kids are having such a good time, they forget there are animals here!" (Door County Advocate, September, 2006).
"Thank you for the visit to your farm. We had a great time with you as hosts and all of your nice animals."
(The Sunshine House, July 2007).
"We enjoyed our visit to your Plum Loco farm tremendously. The way the animal pens and shelters were laid out were extremely fascinating. The use of the building materials and other enhancements were quite innovative. Seeing the various animals, the sheep, goats, ponies, etc. up close was quite a thrill. We greatly enjoyed feeding and giving treats to the animals. We are glad your farm is not a "petting zoo" but gives people the opportunity to see and feed the animals up close. We concur with your philosophy of treating animals as sentient beings and allowing them to live out their lives in a protected, contented environment." (The Oswald Family, October 2006).
