@polamasc366 @8NEWS We are closed on 1/30 to the public. Sorry, we were open for sledding earlier this week but have been taking a couple days closed to clear ice and snow from parking lots and paths to make it safer. Check our website for a current status of our hours, before you visit anytime soon

It is with heavy hearts that we share the news of the passing of Dani, the beloved horse who lived at Maymont for two decades. She passed away at the age of 30 due to a combination of progressive, age-related conditions.

Water service has been restored & we're open 10am–5pm today! Please note: the City is still under a boil water advisory, so water from our drinking fountains & faucets is not yet safe to drink. Be sure to bring your own drinking water, or visit our vending machines at the Farm.
