Bray says the city is considering using the property for hayrides, barnyard tours, candle making, birthday parties, fishing, camping, and other non-animal activities. One idea is to create a "pizza farm" on the site. The plan is to teach students that pizzas come from someplace other than cardboard boxes. Students would be shown a wheat field so they could see that crust is made of wheat, and maybe they'll be shown some tomatoes so they can see that tomatoes grow from the ground. Presumably, anchovies and pepperoni won't be among the ingredients.
