Hey everyone! 👋
I’ve gotten a few questions about why I share information about other farms similar to Wild Goats Farm. The simple answer is that I’m not just doing this for me; I’m doing it for all the kids and adults who love animals and the outdoors.
With not very many activities in our area, it’s important to provide kids with more opportunities to participate in all the fun and educational experiences.
They’ll live, learn, and grow. 🌳🐐
So, if you know of any other great activities in the area, please feel free to share them.
We are open today 1-4. Reminder we will be closed next weekend.

Interesting fact about Emus: they won a war!
Emus in Australia! The Great Emu War is indeed a unique event in history. It took place in 1932 and was a wildlife management military operation aimed at controlling the population of emus that had become a nuisance to farmers in Western Australia.
During this time, large numbers of emus were migrating into farmland, causing damage to crops. The Australian government sent a group of soldiers armed with machine guns to assist the farmers in reducing the emu population. However, the operation did not go as planned, and the emus proved to be quite elusive and resilient.
Despite their best efforts, the soldiers found it challenging to successfully target and eliminate the emus. The emus, being swift and agile, were able to outrun the soldiers and evade their gunfire, resulting in limited success.
In the end, the operation was considered a failure, as the emu population was not significantly reduced. It is a fascinating and somewhat humorous event in history, showcasing the unique challenges humans can face when dealing with wildlife.
Good Wednesday morning! We are going to be open today from 3-7. No appointment needed! The ducks 🦆 are wanting me to let you know it is still pretty soggy out there so you might want to wear your boots 🥾
Come relax on the farm and enjoy the animals from 3-6 Saturday August 5th. No appointment needed!
Just a friendly reminder our internet isn’t the best at the barn so it is cash only.
Beautiful day on the farm!
