Here is a quick overview of our farm residents – all the different types of animals who live with us at the farm.
Pigs
Our three little pigs are sisters. Poppy, Petunia and Punk are young miniature pigs. They were born in December 2022 and moved into their new forever home at the farm in February 2023.
There is a lot of exploring, growing up and making friends ahead of them!
Budgies, finches and parakeets
Our front aviary is home to colourful and twittering mix of little birds including lots of budgies, Society finches, Zebra finches, Gouldian Finches and our Pineapple Green Cheek conure named Mango.
Chickens
Our chickens are a divers mix of bantam and standard size chickens, most of them are female and they are watched over by three roosters.
The newest addition to this flock are a pair of big buddy turkeys: Rose and Dwayne.
Currently they are still sorting out the pecking order while making new friends.
Guinea Pigs
Our little herd of six guinea pigs are a tight little group and they are always excitedly chattering along. They are all ladies of mixed ages with several of them in their senior years.
One of the ladies, Rosemary, is actually a hairless variety called a “skinny pig”.
Doves
In our second indoor aviary (located in the building beside the goat petting area) lives a small flock of doves – each spring the parents work on raising some little “dovelings”.
Goats
Our goats live in our petting area and they are very social and like to interact with visitors. Please make yourself familiar with the rules before visiting their area. They are a mix between two miniature goats breeds:the Nigerian Dwarfs Goat and African Pygmy Goat. Our goat herd is a colourful mix of many different colours, shapes, ages and personalities but they have one thing in common: They are truly the Greatest Of All Times!
Donkeys
Our two donkey ladies Opal and Taffy are in their senior years and like to take it easy – except when they are “heehawing” through the farm to remind the staff of the approaching feeding time!
Alpacas
This elderly couple, our white gentleman Osmond and his black lady friend Lacy, are both in their senior years which requires extra feedings of soft mash and lots of nap times – but if it’s their day to roam the farm in the morning they show their adventurous spirit and elegantly gallop through the gate to reach the grazing area quickly.
NEW ARRIVALS:
Nine years old half sisters Pumpkin and Sweetie Pie have just recently found their forever home at our farm. Their curious and friendly nature helps them to get familiar with their new surroundings, get to know all their new friends and learn all the unfamiliar views, sounds and smells.
Stop by to welcome them to the farm!
Ducks
Several breeds of ducks are living together in the duck yard. The majority of them are muscovy ducks, one is a silver appleyard lady and we have a special couple of an Indian Runner lady duck and a little boyfriend a call duck who have a very close bond.
Farm Cat
We have one cat living and working at the farm: Elsie, the tripping hazard (she has a talent to accidentally being under foot and really keeps the staff on their toes) is a young kitty who join our farm family in the winter of 2023/24.
Elsie the most independent of our animals. There are multiple visitors who will never know that we also have this small but great feline living with us. Like many others of their species, Elsie really has a mind of her own, she like to do her own cat-things and show her opinions clearly. Elsie has a very important job at the farm as she patrols the grounds on rodent control on the night shift. As a result, she sleeps or rests for most of the daytime hours.
In loving memory of Leo, the lion, our old gentleman cat who crossed the rainbow bridge in the fall of 2025.
