Visit Winterpast Farm petting zoo in Wake Forest NC and see the amazing huge green emu eggs! The emu only lays for about a month so come visit soon!
A few fresh eggs are available for gifting your foodie friend. $25 and only for another week so Farmer Mary is sure they are fresh. A single emu egg equals between 6-8 regular chicken eggs so just one makes a quiche or pound cake. Why not try something new!?
Farmer Mary has scheduled several pasture walks each day we are open to take farm visitors on a walk to see the emu eggs in the nests. This is a once a year opportunity. Be on time if you want to come along!

Did you know you can rent pets from Winterpast Farm petting zoo in Wake Forest Nc? This bunny was used for Senior photos. Farmer Mary mostly rents bunnies and guinea pigs by the week to discourage buying small pets. Sometimes people rent to gift a favorite teacher with a temporary classroom pet (ask the teacher first!).
Farmer Mary has also rented goats to be in a wedding, to go hang out on a walk in a nearby park, to entertain at a girls slumber party, to entertain at an elderly persons birthday and several times she has rented to a high school boy for a “prom-posal” to ask a girl to go with him to praaaaaaam. The girl has always said yes!
Farmer Mary has rented a baby lamb on a bottle, baby chicks, a sweet rooster for Senior photos, a pig to talk someone out of buying one (it worked!) and baby ducklings. Read more at Pet Rental at www.winterpast.org.
Come meet all our sweet animals and talk to Farmer Mary about renting your favorites.

BARNEY! He can’t see or hear well any more but he loves Farmer Mary and Farmer Mary loves him. Thanks to the friend of the farm who donated the new tie dye fleece blanket. BARNEY was just trying it out before we use it to keep the bunnies and guinea pigs warm at Winterpast Farm petting zoo in Wake Forest NC.
Farmer Mary sure hopes those rumors of snow coming this weekend are just fairytales! She will be moving all the bunnies and guinea pigs to the new heated garage space if the cold arrives. Her handy friend Billy is finishing the shelves and painting the walls and ceiling tomorrow!
