"Volunteers care for these donkeys who are neighborhood celebrities. Be sure to drop by some Sunday morning at 10:00 and give them a scratch on the ears. Also, you could pet the donkeys."
"Pet and help feed donkeys! The volunteers have fun stories about them too. Ask them questions and please follow their instructions."
"Donkeys were playing and chasing each other this afternoon. Lots of fun to watch their shenanigans."
"This is a really fun hidden gem in Palo Alto! A lot of great little walking trails surround this area as well. The donkeys are friendly and will walk right up to the fence to say hello and let you pet them. One of the donkeys was the model for donkey in Shrek! "That'll do, donkey. That'll do.""
"I went at 10 on Sunday but they were still in their pen area. I asked the donkeys questions about their lives but they didn’t answer."
