yes, I have seen this, and knowing two examples in Berlin (Görlitzer Park
and Mauerpark) I agree that this tagging is working for these cases. But
IMHO it isn't working for actual farms in the countryside where food
production is a significant part of their business, but which are also
explicitly open to visiting families or school classes. And as you notice
correctly, it doesn't refer to growing plants in any way. I believe many of
the rural examples don't qualify as any kind of zoo.

Cheers,
Martin
