Grant's Farm
A former estate of the Busch family, now a zoo-style park where you can ride a little train past deer and get close to Budweiser Clydesdales, with free admission.
Grant's Farm was once the farm of President Ulysses S. Grant and later became the private estate of the Anheuser-Busch family. A park train runs through the deer park, where you can see bison, deer and camels. The park also has goat feeding, animal shows, a Clydesdale stable, and the Hardscrabble Cabin that Grant built with his own hands. Admission is free, but parking costs money. Adults can claim a free beer at the German-style beer garden. It is open only in spring, summer and autumn.
