We have a delightful pair of miniature donkeys—a jack and a jenny—who, with a bit of luck, welcome a foal each summer. Visitors, both children and adults, are always amazed by the size of the foal’s ears at birth! Come meet our lovable miniature donkeys, known for their playful personalities and gentle nature.
