Legacy Farms is marketed online as a "sustainable farm" that offers "farm tours, animal exhibits, corn maze, hay rides, haunted woods trail, costumed actors, pumpkin patch, and more". Instead, what they offer is a costly ticket to one couple's unkempt, unorganized hobby. Let me preface the rest of my review by saying that I grew up spending summers on my family's real, working dairy farm, so I understand farming and how to care for farm animals. This place was a joke.Tickets for the farm tour were $8.00. There was no actual "tour". None of the buildings were open, and none of the the three staff members could answer any questions about the farm - not even where kids could wash their hands after touching the animals. The animal exhibits consisted of a small enclosed coop with about 50 chickens inside, that were so crowded they had plucked each other's feathers out. There was no food in their feeder, and the poor things were pecking pathetically at the dust left on the bottom of the feeder. Next to the overcrowded chicken coop, beside a pile of junk and an old car, was a rabbit hutch with 4 rabbits inside. There were two miniature horses and three pot-bellied pigs in another fenced in enclosure. In another small enclosure were a full grown Angus cow and an Angus bull calf. The enclosure had almost no grass, and there was no hay available for the cows. We paid another $4.00 for the corn maze and hay ride. The hay ride was literally two circles around a "field" approximately half the size of a football field, that was basically a vegetable patch that was completely overgrown with grass and weeds. In the middle of it was a very nice small chicken coop, surrounded by okra that should have been harvested days prior. The corn maze was so short that it took us about 5 minutes to walk through, and we saw none of the advertised "costumed actors". A peek inside the many buildings around the farm revealed a number of previous efforts that apparently hadn't gone so well for the owner - including an "organic garden" outside the main building that was covered in weeds and rotting vegetables that were never picked, a shooting range that was covered in dust and cobwebs, and had an ATV parked inside, and an "eco-processing station", that was filled with unused equipment. One of the owners. "Morgan", was on hand to tell us about how she had "gone to college for plants and things", and the big plans they had for a bed and breakfast. Later she came by - and I'm pretty sure she didn't remember that she'd already spoken to us - and told us all about how she "rescued" all of their animals and that she viewed them as her pets. She even went as far as telling us that she would "lay with the pigs and cuddle them". She went on to share that they had big plans for the main house, but that there was currently a septic issue, and that they weren't trying to make a profit there but gave all of their proceeds to charity. Finally she told us that her father was an FBI agent, that her grandfather was a veterinarian, that her family owned some big turkey farm somewhere, and that she was attending NC State's Veterinary School, but dropped out in her 3rd year because she refused to perform euthanasia, but not was "practicing internal medicine" at a veterinary clinic.I wish I was kidding...I have no idea what is going on at this "farm", but it is not farming. It seems more like a money pit of a hobby that is completely disorganized and unkempt. Anyone who visits the farm hoping to learn about sustainable farming will be sorely disappointed and seriously misled. They don't appear to know how to properly care for the animals they have, and a quick check of the owners public Facebook page reveals numerous animal residents (such as the advertised, but absent, goats) that are no longer around. Since there was 5 of us, we paid $60 bucks to look at a spread out petting zoo and overgrown vegetable garden with some fancy buildings that they dubbed a "sustainable farm". What a joke.
