🚌Farmer Mary enjoyed hosting a special farm field trip with Austistic students and their teachers and parents at Winterpast Farm Petting Zoo in Wake Forest NC.
🐇Students learned how to feed caged bunnies and guinea pigs, to hold their hands flat to feed the big emu, which of Farmer Mary’s dogs liked to be thrown endless tennis balls🎾.
🌲🌳They walked the back pasture with peacocks and CLAIRE donkey out into the forest and discovered the amazing emu nest with enormous green eggs, then headed up by the barn to meet the pigs🐖, donkey, sheep🐏 and goats🐐.

🐰Sweet OREO bunny is having a very nice Easter weekend home stay with a local family. Did you know that YOU can host a small animal from Winterpast Farm in your home? “Rent for a week and get over it” says Farmer Mary.
🐰Most hosts, of all ages, do get right over the idea of needing to “own” a small caged pet after a weeklong highly informative animal experience. Read more at “Pet Hosting” at winterpast.org. Guinea pigs and hedgehogs 🦔 also available.
👍🏽Please SHARE with friends and help Farmer Mary recycle existing pets instead of creating more (who will probably be dumped/donated to Winterpast Farm or dropped off at an animal shelter within a few months. )❤️You don’t need to own it to love it. If you love bunnies volunteer at Winterpast Farm and help take care of all the former pets living there‼️
