During the winter season, you can visit the Ardenwood Historic Farm. Naturally, the farm is not as active during the winter; however, you can still enjoy visiting the many different farm animals. We saw some “free range” sheep roaming around the sheep pen with a sign reminding us not to feed the animals.

Ardenwood Historic Farm is located at 34600 Ardenwood Boulevard in Fremont, California. Although Ardenwood is open year round, the peak season for visiting the farm is during the summer (April 1 to November 15). During the winter, the Patterson House is closed and the farm offers fewer activities for visitors. Still, you will be able to stroll through the grounds and visit the various farm animals and peacocks that have made the farm their home.
