Erin's Meadow Herb Farm is such an interesting place to learn about herbs. There are organic plants, teas, and so much more. The classes are easy and very informative. I have visited them often for years. It's A GREAT EXPERIENCE to share with family & friends. This year I ordered my plants and teas from their website and they offered curbside delivery.

I liked the Hall of Fame where they displayed all these neat artifacts from the mountain settlers. They had carved figures people whittled, quilts,handmade toys, and a homespun dress. My husband loved the section on instruments such as dulcimer, banjos, and fiddles. You could spend hours in there! So interesting!

Little Ponderosa Zoo

Reviewed By drbmc - Tifton, United States

This is a small rescue zoo for abused and abandoned animals. Mr. Cox and his family do a wonderful job of caring for the animals. Purchase a bucket of food and enjoy a stroll through the grounds as you hand feed the animals. Playground, pony rides, and picnic area are available. Great for families!

Very friendly staff loaded with great information about the surronding area and things to do. Plenty of recommendations for places to visit, great locations for dining, and also for hotels. Beautiful log cabin structure and a nice place to take a breather while passing through Clinton and the Anderson County area. Located less than a half-mile off of I-75 at exit 122.
