Welcome to our small hobby farm located in Medford, Wisconsin. On our little hobby farm we raise Fainting goats, Silky Fainting goats, pygmy goats and miniature donkeys. We didn't start out with all of these critters, it all began with a pygmy goat named "Griffin" and a very wonderful horse named "Unbreakable Victory"(Vic for short). They were my daughters 4H projects. We also started out with "Bear" our cocker/beagle mix dog. Griffin, Vic and Bear have since passed away but they are never forgotten.
We truly love our animals and hope you will too. Every effort is taken to prevent disease and promote happy healthy animals. Come visit awhile and check out some of our breeding stock and for sale page. Visitors to our farm are always welcome. Just drop us a line or give us a phone call to set up a convenient time to come visit.
Strangers are just friends we haven't met yet!!!!
Thank you for visiting our hobby farm on the web. Please contact us with any questions or comments.

"Rosie and Socks" I don't know about everybody else but my cats just LOVE my goats and the goats feel the same way!
This is our Nubian wether "Gus" He was one of our first goats. Gus is 16 yrs old in this picture which was taken May 2010, we have had Gus ever since he was 2 months old. He is our babysitter for the little ones after weaning.

In loving memory of"Bear"My husband was doing a remodel job for some people and she was the last of two puppies that they couldn't find a home for and they were going to shoot her. We brought her home, she was six months old when she came home with us and she passed away at 21 yrs old in 2006. She was my constant companion. I miss her terribly and she can never be replaced. Bear is 19 yrs old in this picture.

OUR HELPERS AROUND THE FARM:
"Dutch" He came to live with us in 2007 he was found starving in a culvert and we brought him home. He was 3 months old.
"Sonny" our miniature dachshund and "Gabby" our Pembroke Welsh Corgi. Their job is to keep the barn cats in line. But in this picture I guess their job today is to relax in the sun!
