Hi! I'm Cara, the mom/wife/founder of our ranch. My husband and I have been together since freshman year of high school! We grew up in our small town of Surry County VA with both of our families owning farms. His family owned a dairy farm, and we spent every day after school and weekend there on the farm. We always talked about having our very own. I bought my first pair of mini pigs in 2011 and have been perfecting my mini pig program since, although we decided 2025 is our last year with that. Fast forward to 2017 when we got married and bought our 20 acre homestead. We got lucky enough to be able to purchase the farmhouse his grandma had owned many years ago. We have been remodeling, updating, and making it our own ever since. We got a call only a few months after being in our home asking to take in an orphaned calf, man-oh-man did that spark a fire in my soul! After bottle raising him and lots of research we decided to make the leap into breeding miniature cattle. Since that day we have added TWO CHILDREN, miniature goats, chickens, ducks, rabbits, guinea pigs, miniature and full-size horses, miniature donkeys, mini highland cows, and so much more to our humble abode. We dedicate every spare moment into rescuing and fostering dogs/cats as well. We now lease an additional 30+ acres to accommodate all of our beloved animals.
