About Us
THE ZOO, GROOVY YARD ART is a tongue and cheek zoo where you can buy the animals.
The Zoo is home to thousands of animals that would be an incredible addition to your yard art. However, these animals are artistic renditions composed of various mediums. Many are crafted from some combination of metal, aluminum, and wood. And, the best thing about them is they require very little maintenance. There is no poop, no feeding, no walking, just constant enjoyment.
Located on approximately 7 acres adjacent to the babbling waters of Hemptown Creek, visitors walk around the art installation while reading information panels which provide interesting facts about all of the animals, many of which have cartoon characteristics.
Our goal is for you to leave with a smile on your face and perhaps, a new groovy piece of yard art.. We also offer flowers, cacti, metal signs, planters, wood products and so much more!
Meet Harold, Our Resident Giraffe!
Harold stands proudly at approximately 20 feet tall. He recently had neck surgery from a severe fall. We are happy to announce that he has recovered and is doing very well.
A few of the features of the zoo are 12-foot tall giraffes, along with recreations of bears, roosters, elephants, horses, velociraptors, and dragons that blow smoke. It’s truly a unique experience with amazing metal yard art. This unusual location can be found in the Blue Ridge mountains of Georgia.
