A long, hot day taking care of all the animals warrants a little nap on the way home.
Grab a ducky, have a nap and stay cool folks!
The Wild Life is not just your forest grocery store and pharmacy but also the doorway to your equine Horseback Riding Center

š„ Warning: We accept no responsibility if you instantly fall in love.
š Meet the newest member of The Wild Life⦠Come say hello this week to Chicken - the duckling!
Yes⦠our duckling is named Chicken. š
At just a few weeks old, Chicken has decided that people are its flock. The moment itās left alone, it lets the whole farm know with the tiniest (and loudest!) peeps until someone comes back.
So these days, Chicken comes pretty much everywhere with us. Chores? Chickenās there. Lessons? Chickenās supervising. Walking around the farm? Right behind us, tiny feet working overtime to keep up or catching ride in our arms.
Watching this little duckling has been a wonderful reminder that sometimes all we need is to feel safe and know someone is nearby.
If you visit The Wild Life this summer, donāt be surprised if you spot a little duck waddling along beside one of us. Chances are, thatās Chickenāour tiny, feathered shadow, and quite possibly the hella cutest farm helper youāll ever meet. š¦š
Have you ever met an animal that thought it was supposed to be with people all the time? Weād love to hear your stories in the comments! š
One of these is not like the othersā¦

šØš¦ Happy Canada Day! ā¤ļøš¤
Today, weāre celebrating more than just a countryāweāre celebrating the people who help feed it.
Farming in Canada isnāt easy. Itās early mornings, late nights, unpredictable weather, rising costs, and countless sacrifices that often go unseen. Itās fixing fences in the rain, checking animals before sunrise, and putting your heart into the land every single day.
But despite the challenges, there is something incredibly beautiful about this life. Watching new life arrive in the spring, harvesting what youāve worked so hard to grow, caring for animals, and sharing that harvest with your community is a privilege that never gets old.
Weāre proud to call Canada home and even prouder to be part of the farming families who work every day to nourish our communities and care for this incredible land.
This Canada Day, we celebrate the resilience, kindness, and determination that make Canadian agriculture so special. Thank you to every farmer, rancher, grower, and food producer who keeps our country strong.
From our farm to your family, Happy Canada Day! May we never take for granted the land beneath our feet and the food on our tables.

I am once again blessed with an amazing crew for the summer season! One of the girls, Katelyn, is going to be running the whole petting zoo!! How lucky am I to have a young, enthusiastic person on my crew to take on such a huge project?!
You can support Katelyn and all her hard work getting the petting zoo ready and user friendly by stopping by. No reservations required for our open hours until Labour Day. Itās a fun time for the whole family for $25 (a family is 2 adults and kids under 18).

Today, I want to take a moment to acknowledge how incredibly proud I am of my daughter.
This evening was not an easy one. She learned that her great-grandmother had passed away, and despite carrying that heartbreak, she still helped with two riding lessons. She remained kind, professional, and composed while supporting our riders and horses, even while processing such difficult news.
As parents, we hope to raise children who are resilient, compassionate, and dependable. Tonight, Louise demonstrated all of those qualities. While no child should have to navigate grief, I am deeply proud of the strength, maturity, and dedication she showed.ā¤ļøš“

This little cutie is looking for a home. A shy, little male, approximately 10 weeks old. Will be dewormed today and ready for his new family. He was dropped off, I donāt know anything about his parents, breed, etc.
Sunday morning snuggles look a little different around here.
The are still shedding their winter hair.
Although some are still a bit skittish, we groom the ones that let us. Today our hands were the most effective.
