Picture this: a quaint farm situated on gently rolling hills in the midst of cottage country, where visitors are greeted by perhaps Petunia, the pot-bellied pig or Geronimo, the miniature horse who thinks he’s a dog, or Tinsel, the little black goat, or one of the over 150 animals who freely roam the grounds (including horses, donkeys, rabbits, deer, pigmy goats, llamas, alpacas, several varieties of ducks and chickens, geese, doves, pigeons, swans and peacocks). Listen to the laughter and excited chatter of young and old children who are absolutely transfixed by their surroundings.

Sharron Smith and David Rome opened Santa’s Farm in 1998, They envisioned a place where children could interact freely and safely with domestic animals and wildlife in a natural and non-commercial setting. Their goal was to advance the education and development of children by instructing them about the care, protection and appreciation of animals. There’s more than nostalgia at work here as some of our heritage animals are on the endangered list such as Sebastopol Geese, Navaho Sheep and Cochin chickens. In addition, they wanted to provide therapeutic activities for children restricted by physical and mental disabilities through interaction and engagement with the animals at the Farm.
