Coleman’s quirky characters have been strategically placed throughout the farm, making it a great place for a whimsical walk.
Over the years, the Frog Farm has been visited by people from around the globe, including Africa, Europe, and Australia.
The Frog Farm is free to visit and is open Tuesday – Saturday, from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m., and Sunday, from 1 p.m. – 5 p.m. For more information on what is likely the strangest of all the roadside attractions in Mississippi, call the Frog Farm at (601) 493-3420.
