All About the Hollow
Helena Hollow was established in 2014 by Jamie & Amy Griffin. The Griffins took the opportunity to move onto family land in Helena, Alabama with their young daughters, Sawyer and Cricket. After slowly developing a collection of animals, the family cleaned out a pole barn on the property and began hosting events. The business eventually grew into a full-fledged petting zoo party business which then evolved into a pumpkin patch, wedding venue, and all-inclusive entertainment farm for the Birmingham metro area. In keeping with traditions set years ago by Jamie's grandfather Mr. Frank R Griffin, Jamie & Amy enjoy sharing the family's beautiful property with the community and strive to run a welcoming business.
