| Ray of Light Farm is home to a diverse collection
of animals. We have llamas and an alpaca, goats, pigs, rabbits,
chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, guinea pigs, guinea fowl, miniature
cows, miniature donkeys, mini horses, mules, and of course horses
and ponies. Our newest addition to the farm is the peacocks!
We also keep several Heritage Breeds of animals. These are traditional
breeds of animals, raised for food in the past, that have unique
genetic traits. Though these breeds were important to early American
farmers, their numbers have declined as industrial agriculture has
expanded. Many heritage breeds have gone extinct, and others are
considered at risk. The preservation of these breeds protects genetic
diversity and keeps alive a store of desirable traits. These breeds
should be preserved because they hold a place in history and they
keep important genetic characteristics.
There are new faces all the time - come by to see them. Visitors
are always welcome.
