During a peaceful moment in yoga class, as still as a cat in the sun, Doreen had a flash of inspiration—she missed her childhood love of animals! So, she and her partner, Jeff, decided to leave city life behind and head for the country, trading concrete for clover on a cozy 14-acre farm.
In March 2020, their dream sprouted as Summer Strolling with Goats, where guests could wander with their friendly flock. And when winter sweeps in it transforms into Winter Walking with Goats, keeping the fun alive no matter the season.
Sunrise Farm is a storybook of animals! Six adorable Nigerian Dwarf Goats bound around, joined by 17 chickens, two waddling ducks, two roly-poly KuneKune pigs (dubbed Jimmy Dean and Jellybean), one woolly, laid-back sheep named Bubba, and the most lovable farm dog you’ll ever meet, Finley.
And it's more than just an animal paradise; driven by her love for nature, Doreen has created a vibrant, four-acre Pollinator Habitat that buzzes with bees and butterflies in warmer months, then transforms into a snowy wonderland perfect for making snow angels in winter. The farm isn’t just a destination—it’s a little slice of magic!
