Animal Barn
Our animals are part of the family at Sky Top. They live here year-round and in the off-season, many roam the orchard free-range! Pick some grass for the bunnies and chickens or feed our sheep and goats grain from your hands. Keep an eye out for our all-white peacock!
​
Cost: Free! Bring quarters to feed the animals.

Apple Cannon
Shoot apples over the lake at our apple-themed targets, but be careful not to hit a sheep or a goose! (Don't worry they stay far away when the cannon is shooting. They do love to snack on the crushed apples after guests leave though!)
