Welcome!

The family owned Hemker Park & Zoo has been USDA licensed for 30 years. They have 14 acres of well kept grazing land located just 90 minutes from the Twin Cities right off 1-94 in Freeport, MN. Learn more about the animals while receiving a personalized tour from the people who care for them every day.

Hemker Park & Zoo is dedicated to the memory of Mark Hemker. It was Mark's vision to create a place where animals could flourish and be enjoyed by the young and old alike.

 

His vision first started to become a reality over 30 years ago when he started Hemker Wildlife Park with the purchase of two Mallard Ducks.

Since then Hemker Wildlife Park has grown into Hemker Park & Zoo. To date, you can view more animals then almost any other zoo in Minnesota.

Mark's children strive to make his vision live on, through the animals, their family, and then community.
