The Funky Farm

The Funky Farm is a boutique wildlife sanctuary located in Hastings on Victoria's Mornington Peninsula, Australia, and is renowned as one of Australia's most hands-on wildlife experiences. Operating exclusively by appointment for small-group guided tours, the sanctuary allows visitors to interact directly with a variety of native Australian animals including wombats, kangaroos, dingoes, snakes, and reptiles. Rather than passive observation, guests are encouraged to pat animals and participate in feeding experiences under qualified supervision, creating genuinely memorable encounters. The farm is closed Mondays and Tuesdays and also offers birthday party packages through its partner service, Aussie Wildlife Displays. Its intimate, personalised approach to wildlife education makes it a distinctive destination for families and tourists seeking authentic connections with Australian fauna on the Mornington Peninsula.
