These girls enjoyed holding animals yesterday at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC. HELEN KELLER (yes, she is blind) and LINUS enjoyed being held,fed and brushed.
🐖Come for a farm visit soon and see if YOU can pass the guinea pig test! All the former pet bunnies and guinea pigs would love some attention!
🦆Most are available through Farmer Mary’s unique Pet Rental Program. “Rent for a week and get over it” says Farmer Mary. About 98 percent DO get over the idea of owning a small caged pet long term. YOU can read more at www.winterpast.org.
🐇Have a nice animal experience then return the animal to Farmer Mary who will deal with protecting them during extreme cold and hot weather, through their old age and other issues.
🐏Farmer Mary wasn’t allowed to have animals as a child. Her Mother told her to wait til she got older and then could have all the dogs and whatever other animals she wanted. Well, she waited and now Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo is her front yard!
🦃OPEN Thanksgiving day!
Thank you for supporting a small local farm family animal rescue. There are unwanted animals donated or left at the gate almost daily!
🐥Please read the entire “your visit” section at www.winterpast.org and don’t be surprised to find friendly dogs and chickens here. 🐢Please realize we have a composting toilet and hand washing is at the barn.
🐑Please volunteer (read the “volunteer” section at www.winterpast.org) before publicly complaining about anything here. Farmer Mary can always use help especially now that her children are all away at college. There are endless animals being donated or left at the front gate. There are many current chores like winterizing of all the hutches and setting up dry clean maternity pens, getting the pond winterized, rebuilding roofs of pens and always the fixing of fencing and general farm chores.
