Crouton arrived in 2018 just before Christmas. Pumpernickel arrived in 2019 in early December. They were both veal calves advertised on Craigslist by local dairy farmers.

Toy originally came from England. He is a breed known as a Gypsy cob or Gypsy Vanner. They are known for their docile nature and are a draft horse in a small body. He is a real character and enjoys his nightly stroll down the aisle to visit with everyone.

Luscious, also known as Marshmallow or Shmelly is our resident who handles baby sitting duties. He raised both Crouton and Pumpernickel until they grew too big and rough.

This is THE PACK. All are fantastic farm dogs and enjoy patrolling the barns. Jack is the youngest and is figuring out his spot in the group. Franklin (WIggles) enjoys rides in the hay wheelbarrow and remains ever vigilant about B. Bennett’s favorite is basking in front of his personal heater in the winter. Theo is the most loyal of the group and is usually watching over us. Oscar is usually looking for rats or snoozing on his dog bed.

Rhubarb is a red Tamworth sow. She was picked up by police running loose in the city of Bridgeport CT. Not exactly farm country. She has taken to farm life and is up in everyone’s business all day long.

Big was a professional racehorse until he was 9 years old. Most horses do not race that long. He retired from a track in Ohio and joined our herd in 2019. He is learning all about just being a horse and not having to take life so fast.

Pete is a pot belly pig that was surrendered by his owner as a piglet when they discovered their home was not zoned for pigs. He is a good fella that enjoys a nice belly rub

Charlotte is our biggest pig resident. She is a Yorkshire sow. Eating is her favorite activity, edging out crushing kiddy pools by a fair amount.

Little Kiwi was part of a cruelty case. She and her sister were found locked in a utility trailer in deplorable conditions. She enjoys spending time with her buddy Mango and foraging around the farm.

Mango came in with Kiwi in the same cruelty seizure. We are not sure if they are sisters or mother-daughter. She is very shy and has poor eyesight. She spends her days free ranging with her buddy Kiwi. Banana chips are her favorite

Shrimp was raised here on the farm as an orphan. He had a very rough start health-wise but has made great progress and is a real character. He enjoys head winging for attention and is a feature in the nightly videos from the barn.

Pesto was born here in 2004. She is a gentle giant and is our largest resident. She loves her moms dearly and gets very jealous if any of the horses come to close.

Mojo was found abandoned in a pumpkin patch about an hour from the farm. We rehabilitated him and he is a huge part of our sanctuary. He enjoys greeting visitors with a hearty bray and is a favorite of everyone that comes here.

Freddie and Mercury arrived in 2020. They had been seized from a hoarder in CT. Both were in pretty rough condition. It has been wonderful seeing them come around. Both are happy and healthy now.
