Tipsico Valley Farm

At our farm, our animals are not a product. They are family. They are pets. Bambi was our daughter’s first goat, and she and her sister Rocket came into our lives and re-shaped our future more than we would ever know.

For the last 9 years, Bambi has been loyal, loving, and the definition of what a perfect companion is. She had the sweetest soul and kindest disposition. Our daughter has had Bambi by her side for 9 out of her 14 years of life, and Bambi’s passing yesterday has been a hard one.

We are so grateful to have known such a beautiful soul, and our farm won’t feel the same without her. We will forever miss her, but we know she is resting peacefully over that rainbow bridge.

Being an emergency room nurse is hard, but coming home to my farm, full of love and peacefulness, makes each day a little more survivable. They are the true healers in this world. We just have to stop and listen.

Yep!

Life is pretty special when you have a 30 year old retired military donkey to spend it with. Yesterday was Radars bath day and he is just the best old boy in the pasture!

Radar is certainly showing his age after some winter weight loss due to 30 year old teeth, lumps and bumps, and an episode of choke (which was resolved with the help of a great doc and an emergency vet visit). He has a very special diet that includes rice bran, flax, chia seeds, and soaked Wild Forage. Our goal for him is strictly revolved around a good quality of life. We’re so fortunate that Ronan has had such a special donkey to call his own. Their relationship is the best! ❤️

Looking forward to another morning coffee with this chick tomorrow 🥰
