• Let the goats come to you: kids can go into the meadow with an adult when it's open, and the goats and sheep decide whether they want a pat
• No feeding the animals: each one gets a diet of its own, so leave bread and snacks in the bag
• No dogs or bikes on the farm grounds, so lock bikes up outside before you go in

Boerderij Westerpark is the city's largest farm, run by staff and volunteers in the middle of Westerpark. Kids meet Kunekune pigs, Dutch spotted and Frisian milk sheep, pygmy and Nubian goats, several breeds of chicken, golden pheasants, pigeons and the farm cat.

When the meadow is open, families can walk in among the goats and sheep. De Hooikeet, the farm's neighborhood café, serves coffee, tea and apple pie.
