PLEASE NOTE WE ARE NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC DAILY
Join us for an interactive and educational tour of the sanctuary, and meet the amazing farm animals rescues who call West Place home. We pride ourselves on tailoring each tour to the interests of the group, and we can accommodate guests of different ages and needs. We've hosted families of all sizes, offices large and small, social clubs and civic organizations, scout groups, and even a bachelorette party. Sanctuary tours are great for birthdays, anniversaries, school field trips, or dates. You'll want to return year after year!
NEW IN 2024: THE CHICKEN EXPERIENCE!​
Each tour will be led by one of our expert tour guides, and you'll have opportunities to feed and pet many of the rescue animals. You'll explore the historic 8-acre farm property and walk among the lovely gardens and vineyard, ending in our one-of-a-kind Gift Shop filled with hand-made items.
Tours can be scheduled any day of the week, year-round, beginning at 9:30am on a first-come, first-served basis. Due to high demand and the need to coordinate our tour guides' schedules, we ask that you please book your tour at least one week in advance by contacting us.
Explore the different tour offerings below and pick the one that's best for you. West Place is also open to the public three times each year for visitors weekends.

Your tour guide will show you how to safely feed and pet many of the animals who are freely roaming the 8-acre sanctuary.

To ensure you have the best possible experience, tours are limited to a maximum of 25 - 30 people.

You'll also receive private access to our unique and growing Gift Shop. Your Couples Tour includes a bottle of wine or a four-pack of beer from West Place Farmbrew, and you are welcome to picnic on the front lawn overlooking the Sakonnet River or inside the Flower Greenhouse.

Life is better with chickens! Following the outbreak of avian flu, West Place built a brand-new Chicken House to keep our game birds safe. It's a really nice building and you can hang out inside with feathered friends. Bring your own basket and sit at the bistro table for a private picnic, or enjoy a beverage surrounded by hens, roosters, and other game birds happily exploring their new home. You may be lucky enough to have a chicken sit in your lap, and if you bring blueberries you'll have friends for life. It's a cluckin' good time!
