More Grant's Farm photos.





There were goats to give milk to, camels to feed, horses to pet and and a sister with a big smile.

Grant's Farm is an historic farm in St. Louis, Missouri, which was once owned by Ulysses S. Grant. The Farm is now owned by the Busch family, who used to own Anheuser-Busch brewing company. The Farm is free and open to the general public every summer, and it is a frequent tourist attraction in St. Louis. The farm is filled with many animals including buffalo, elephants, camels, donkeys, goats, peacocks, the iconic Budweiser Clydesdales and many more.

Also on the farm is the Busch family mansion and the house in which Ulysses S. Grant resided between the Mexican and Civil Wars. This was the land his wife, Julia Grant, gave to him.
