10 Acre Woods

10 Acre Woods We are a not-for-profit family operated Farm Animal Rescue, and Interactive Petting Farm located just east of the city of Winnipeg. We do not take in dogs.
(299)

We take animals in, socialize them and re-home them to their forever home. Check out our videos on YouTube. As valued members of our community, we try to enhance and create a friendly family environment and fulfill the needs of our community. Animal Assisted Therapy is real and very beneficial and providing this interaction to specialized groups and seniors has been a great learning experience for

all. Day-cares and school groups can call to book private visits. Groups can call to book a BBQ area. All you have to do is call 866-4341 and arrange your visit with us. The animal we take in are bottle-raised, orphaned, or runts with failure to thrive farm animals. Our goal is to raise and gain their trust to eventually rehome as pets, the animals on our farm all have a history and appropriate homes will be selected. Our intention is to give the animals the best lives possible. A common question is, "Does this have anything to do with Winnie the Poo?" Winnipeg AKA Winnie was a bear bought by Harry Colebourn in White River Ontario in 1914 and was named after his home city of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. We came up with the name 10 Acre Woods because of the size of our property and the animals we have in our petting/hobby Farm. In 2001 we started doing large birthday parties and from then have done community Easter events, outdoor youth groups, traveling petting farm and are now doing Wedding events. We also do photography to capture those life events. We are currently expanding our animal compound and enclosures to better organize our farm.

We tested out two new products for our 9 black cats, that were sent to us recently. One is actually a bird feeder with a camera and the other is a smart cat water fountain.

Our hearts go out to anyone who has gone thru a house or Barn fire. Many of the rescues we take in are because of barn fires. We had one just up the road yesterday and it shook us. Huge shout out to the family who saw, reacted and took control of the situation yesterday. You went above and beyond.

The response teams were amazing and were there by the time I got there. That said we need to all take notes and assess our own set up at home. When I arrived on scene there was no way to get the big trucks in to put out the fire. Ditches and fences surrounded the property and a small curved drive the large trucks could not fit down safely.

LESSON - Fire Response times mean nothing if they cannot access your property. Make sure your driveways and gates are wide, clear of overhanging trees, fences are not to close to drive and a fire truck can fit easily with area to work once in yard. In the winter spend the time to clear the snow as well. For those with back pasture barns, keep a good road cleared for access.

Stay safe and think proactive, I know I am rethinking things.

This week we lost one of our heard. Billy passed away after his health quickly turned. We have had a couple scares in the last few months. Billy was born here on the farm in 2017 and like his father Carl, has been quite the character.
