Coronado Dairy and Farm Access

Hunting areas available at the Coronado Dairy: TC hunt map, COR hunt map

There have been changes to the Coronado Dairy Access Program as of May 2022. Be sure to review the page for updates before requesting access.

Coronado Dairy and Farms partnered with the Arizona Game and Fish Department. This partnership ensures hunting access opportunities are managed in a safe and reliable way for all of Arizona’s sportsmen and women.

While hunting is encouraged on the farms, this is a large operation with many activities taking place on a daily basis. In an effort to ensure hunting is safe and compatible with their operations, hunting is only allowed during certain seasons and in designated areas. 

Hunting is allowed during the following seasons: dove, quail, and crane. Deer Hunting is unavailable.

The farm also participates in the Outdoor Experience for All (OE4A) program. This organization offers outdoor experiences to youths diagnosed with life-threatening illnesses. Learn more about this program
