PARADIZOO: POWER OF THREE "Festive Bloom of Agriculture"

My kids' first educational field trip was at Paradizoo. It had been 5 years ago. Hopefully, we'll have another chance to visit Paradizoo this year.

It's very interesting to know all about these:

In celebration of the year of the International Family Farming, experience one of the most anticipated annual festivities in the field of agriculture as Paradizoo re-unfold “Power of Three" (floral, vegetable and agri-livestock fair). Join us from the sneak preview this January 11 to closing on March 2 featuring an amazing Horse Parade, a gala for this year of the horse. See different breeds of horses from thorough breed to miniature horses, display their beautiful statures as they parade together with their colorful and magnificent carts. Also develop and enjoy your understanding towards agriculture as you will learn the Best Practices in agriculture. They will exhibit and display farm produce, sale and auction of livestocks (imported breeds of goats for milk and meat, sheep, several pig breeds animal feed, and a lot more). There will be briefings, discussions on breeding programs and free seminar on flower, vegetable and livestock care.

Be mesmerized to variety of breathtaking floral designs, formal hedges and topiary during Flower Festival starting Jan 18 up to Jan 25. Witness a stunning haven of farm and garden everyone would wish to experience. Additional attention-catching topics to look forward are The Knowledge of Bonsai, Biotechnology Products, Health, Fitness and Wellness, Vermi Composting Technology, Pineapple Jam Making and Aquavermiponics, a modern gardening technology.

Get a chance to interact with animals and know the basics of farming from Feb 1 to Feb 8 in Veggie Festival and Feb 15 to Feb 22 in Livestock Festival. And once you get to know how to milk a goat, ride the horse, and witness a chicken lay an egg, or plant a coffee, cabbage or flower you can opt to buy the farm produce product. Then, learn the right way from farm selection to breeding of goats and sheeps on Feb 15. Lastly, be trained how to practice food safety on Feb 22.

Located in Mendez, Cavite, Paradizoo is ideal for picnics, educational field trips, outdoor and group outing programs. It is a fascinating paradise with soothing beauty of its flora and fauna. Have a taste of this magnificent theme farm with its latest attractions. Be part of the opening of Noah’s Ark, a comforting means of expressing a lasting tribute to your pet by selecting a burial vault and permanent marker in marble or granite. And have a glimpse of Wedding Pavilion and Boot Camp a perfect location for different events.

This would be one fruitful experience you surely wouldn’t want to miss. So for those who yearn to have this wonderful experience, you can visit our website at www.zoomanity.com.ph for details or call us at telephone numbers 8999828 or 08.
