This zoo has huge, lush areas for animals in NATURAL habitats. Animals are surrounded by living and non living elements that allow them to live healthy and happy. You do need to prepare for walking but the walkways are paved and shaded in most areas. There are benches along the way of you need to take a break. While some have mentioned the distance between animal exhibits, there HAS to be space to provide the animals with the most room to roam, and the walks are enjoyable, just wear good shoes and stay hydrated on warmer days. The animals here are very well cared for and the grounds are very well maintained. If you take the time, there are many displays that educate you about the animals lifestyles and efforts that are being made to increase protection and conservation. Though many go to the zoo to see the animals, be sure to take time to appreciate the fantastic plants and trees! The flowers in the Bird Aviary were jaw-dropping beautiful! My son especially loves the KID ZONE and PLAYGROUND areas! The activities that are set up for kids encourage free play and creativity. Some discovery places charge $10-15 for the activities that are INCLUDED in your zoo admission. BONUS: All staff I encounter are friendly and helpful. There are smiles on faces and you can’t beat southern manners. If you have a container, you can get free ice water at any building that has fountain drinks. Also you can take in small snacks and there is a picnic area outside the main area if you would like to bring a cooler lunch. See the website for more details. We REALLY LOVE our experiences here and strongly recommended that everyone should give it a try!

Four Saints Brewing Company

Four Saints Brewing Company began operations in May 2015 in Downtown Asheboro, NC. Four Saints focuses on Great Beer for Great People through award winning beers and supporting the local community in numerous ways. Andrew Deming and Joel McClosky, the owners and executives, met in 2008 and began working towards opening a brewery in 2011. A successful Kickstarter campaign and tremendous support from the City of Asheboro and community drove the renovation of a century old building into a modern seven barrel brewhouse and English/Irish pub inspired taproom.

This is a cute little brewery with unique brews. They have a good board game selection which made our quick stop a fun break in our travels.
