Their Stories

Meet the Residents

Every animal here arrived with a story — and found a new one. Come meet them in person and see why no one leaves the same.

Pig
The Pigs

They arrived uncertain and skittish. Now they're the first ones at the gate every morning, noses in the air, ready to make friends with anyone who'll listen.

Goat
The Goats

Mischievous, bold, and endlessly entertaining. Our goats came from all kinds of situations — and they haven't wasted a single second since arriving.

Read their story →
Sheep
The Sheep

Gentle souls who took their time learning to trust. These days they follow the humans they love across every pasture, unbothered and completely at peace.

Read their story →
Peacock
The Peacocks

Stunning, dramatic, and absolutely aware of it. Our peacocks roam freely and never miss a chance to remind visitors who the real stars of the farm are.

Read their story →
Donkey
The Donkeys

Soulful eyes, big soft ears, and even bigger hearts. They arrived carrying more than anyone should. Now they carry nothing but the warmth of a safe home.

Cow
The Cows

Curious, gentle, and surprisingly affectionate. Once they decided to trust, there was no going back — they'll follow you all afternoon if you let them.
