More about the Farm

We have a herd of horned and un-horned goats that live on a side of the sanctuary called "Five Acres", in a stable block and a big barn.  Also a herd of horned and un-horned that live at "Lord's Acre" next door in similar accommodation.  We also have made use of two large "polytunnels" for daytime use and a breeze-block built hospital facility.

......a final thought.....

At the end of the day, when the water buckets are filled and the racks stuffed with hay, the farm is filled with the sound of munching.  But if you walk through the yard at 1am, the sound of overwhelming contentment fills the night.  Peep over a stable door and you're met with the sight of a family curled up in a corner gently cuddling.  Safe and secure.....looking forward to tomorrow.

The centuries have produced an animal that offers mankind unreserved trust, love and respect.......it's sad that mankind does not always return it or deserve it!
