We have found our current and past Stars through a variety of private and public sectors. Many of our animals in the past have come from Pasado’s Safe Haven in Sultan, Wash.

We aspire to care for small to medium-sized farm animals, such as alpacas, goats, sheep, pigs, chickens, and ducks — but we are open to suggestions!
