In Rhode Island, there are so many wonderful attractions to take the kids for some fun. Whether it’s Roger Williams Park Zoo, Slater Mill, or any number of wildlife preserves around the state, we can always find a memorable place to spend time as a family. One place you may consider visiting at some point is Pezza Farm & Garden Center in Johnston. While it’s become a go-to place for home gardeners to pick up a wide variety of plants and flowers, it also has numerous adorable farm animals that you are invited to visit.
