Home isn’t a place, it’s a feeling
Our residents are very well socialised. All free to roam and wander the open paddocks. When they’re not wandering, they lead family pets on adventures, tease the dairy cows, create countless distractions on the farm, but we wouldn’t have it any other way.
Our dedication to improving bird welfare, hatching, & the rearing of birds already extends into the local community, but we’re always happy to lend a hand where we can. You can reach us here
