Stearns Homestead is home to over 75 animals, including poultry, horses, goats, and more.  While many of our animals are permanent residents, the forty-eight acre farm is an operational farm, raising some livestock for market and products for sale. In order for our animal residents to enjoy their homes, they rely on kind friends, members, volunteers and visitors for support. This includes those who sponsor a farm animal or provide a sponsorship as a gift.

For a small fee anyone can sponsor one or more of their farm favorites for a full year.  Sponsors will receive a certificate of sponsorship and a photo of their sponsored animal.  During the year, Stearns Homestead will host a sponsor appreciation day to visit with your farm friend(s) on a personal level.  Of course, you are always welcome to stop by more often and visit your sponsored animal.

• Rabbits  $20.00   – bunny barn  $125.00
