West Bend, Wi – Mother Nature was smiling on Spring Fling at Schmidt Century Farm on Saturday as families flocked to the 5th-generation farm to snuggle baby animals, sample homemade bakery, and relish in the sweet aroma of being outdoors atop St. Anthony Road just east of Allenton, Wi.
The pigs were a hot commodity. The kids squealed and so did the piglets. Famiies climbed onboard the farm wagon for a tractor tour of cows on pasture while others explored the barnyard seeking week-old kittens, baby rabbits, and Nigerian baby goats.

The horse and her sidekick donkey were spoiled with fresh-cut carrots.
Holding baby ducks, was another favorite pasttime for kids and their parents.
“My 5-year-old son was able to hold a duckling and a chicken,” said Jennifer. “It’s just a really cool experience you can’t get anywhere. Oh, we had a great time.”
