THIS IS OUR STORY, AND WE'RE CHICKEN TO IT!
We established our little hobby farm in the summer of 2017. Once the classic red barn was complete, we wasted no time filling it with furry and feathery babies.
FOUNDERS
Lisa & Ed Mitzen
In the Spring of 2017 we had the idea of building a small barn to house some friendly goats and a few chickens so we could have farm fresh eggs. What started as a casual hobby quickly turned into much more.
Today, the farm has expanded into multiple barns that house numerous goats, chickens, pigs, donkeys, horses, and cats. We share a love for animals and a passion to give back to the community. We wanted to transform this farm into a tool for change, and so all proceeds are donated to local animal-related charities.
HONORABLE MENTIONS
The Dog Squad
Rufus, Maggie, and George are rightfully spoiled living on the farm. They are rambunctious, playing fetch out on the land, chasing chipmunks, and digging holes in the ground like it’s their job.
The Cat Crew
Chip and Dip rule the house with their silly antics! Chip is a cat of leisure and Dip is a curious cat loaded with personality.
The Cookies
Snickerdoodle, Oreo, and Nutter Butter kicked things up a notch when they arrived. They keep the house full of shenanigans.
The Chickens
No one warned us that owning chickens is an addiction! Our initial six quickly turned into more than six dozen. They all have names and unique personalities, as part of our farm family. Their beautiful eggs are colorful, organic, and delicious!
Nubian/Boer Goats
These OG's are living their best life and get lots of love and smooches. They spend their days grazing and lounging.
Nigerian Dwarf Goats
These goofballs are always up to no good and they have the best time playing on their swings.
Meet Our Mini Donkeys
Our mini donkeys are spunky & fun. They enjoy some quiet chill time, basking in the sun, or rolling in the dirt.
Meet Our Jennies
Monica and Phoebe, a mother-daughter duo, are gentle and reserved. Their sweet temperaments have a calming way of touching your heart.
Goat Barn Management
Oliver is the self-appointed badass barn manager. With his large stature, he protects the occupants of his barn while cautiously allowing visitors. Lola helps keep Oliver’s temper down.
Horse & Donkey Patrol
John, Rex, Ruby, Fred, & Lamont keep a watchful eye on the horses and donkeys—at least when they’re not busy lounging more than patrolling.
The Pig Posse
Kevin (Bacon), Jimmy (Dean) and Mia (Hamm) are a fun edition to our farm! They lounge in the sun, cool off in their mudbath, and have become close friends with some of the goats. Offer them a belly rub and you've got a friend for life.
