Adopt An Animal

Anyone can adopt an animal at The Farm and become its "parent!"

As an adoptive parent, you are helping to provide for the food and care of "your" animal. Of course, your adopted animal stays at The Farm where it is cared for by farm staff.

It's easy to adopt!
Choose your favorite farm animal and adopt it for a year by making a tax-deductible donation. A farm "parent" received an adoption certificate, his/her name listed at The Farm and a poster as a thank you, because we do appreciate your support.

The costs for adopting are as follows:
Cat: $25
Goose: $25
Duck: $25
Goat: $30
Pony: $40
Cow: $40
Chicken: $25
Turkey: $25
Sheep: $30
Pig: $30

Click here to view the Adopt an Animal Postcard. All contributions are tax-deductible. Please note: For all practical purposes, some of the animals are sold when they reach maturity.
