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.

Baby Rabbit Surprise - Pumpkins as a Natural De-wormer for Animals
https://youtu.be/WFET3ZOKjA0
We took in two 6 month old rabbits a week ago and only after a couple days, found a nest in their pen, four healthy baby rabbits were discovered in the nest. Billy the goat is in the back with the girls and will stay there for a second week. We picked up over 150 pumpkins once Halloween had passed, the seeds of pumpkins, and other similar plants contain Cucurbitacin, a natural de-wormer for animals.

Halloween 2024! That was Fun we gave out ultimate frisbees, instead of Candy this year. The kids lit up and loved them, very excited to see what next year brings. Honorable mentions to the Flying Dino(thanks to dad) and the two little sassy cops, keeping it real fun. To all the teenagers who lit up at the idea of frisbees, enjoy. Congrats to the 2 ladies who won our Black cat photo post. Now we get right into our winter craft classes starting tomorrow.

Installing Gallagher Electric Fence Line Posts

Astrid the pony that arrived last weekend is fitting in nicely.
With the cold weather approaching, our last fall project of installing new electric fencing around the back of our 10 acres is well underway.
The installation of the Gallagher electric line posts went very well and we could not be any happier. This new electric exclusion fencing should have no problems keeping out the unwanted predators that could get through our previous system. Gallagher Animal Management
