Bird's Farm is located off the beaten path in the tiny town of Forkland. It's one of Alabama's most unique roadside attractions.
Created by Jim Bird in 1993, Bird's Farm is simply a large field that features a variety of whimsical sculptures made from bales of hay, scrap metal, and several other types of junk.
Bird's Farm began by accident. While Jim's wife was out of town, he created a special sculpture for her. Since then, additional sculptures have been added, including a couple of Snoopy pieces.
The next time you find yourself driving along Highway 43 between Demopolis and Eutaw, be sure to stop in Forkland and visit Bird's Farm. This whimsical art farm is sure to be one of the most unique roadside attractions you'll ever experience.
