Many animals arrive at the barn still pregnant and give birth on the fairgrounds in Pomona.
Guests can get hands-on in the barnyard with activities such as the petting zoo, and learn more about the animals at various educational lectures given by the animal handlers.
Admission to The Big Red Barn is included with each fairgoer’s ticket. The fair runs Thursday-Sunday through May 26, plus Memorial Day. For hours and ticket information, see lacountyfair.com.
