Thornfield Heritage Farm is a simple operation on a small farm we share with our feathered and furry friends, where we can give them plenty of loving care and attention.  What started as a hobby over sixteen years ago and through study, observation, research, and many, many trials and errors, developed into Thornfield Poultry first, and into what is now Thornfield Heritage Farm.  We have raised rabbits, Black Copper Marans chickens, as well as Silver Appleyard ducks, African Dewlap Geese, and Cotton Patch geese.  These specific waterfowl are listed as Endangered Breeds by the Livestock Conservancy.  We have added kunekune pigs, Nigerian Dwarf goats (females only, so no stinky smell), Valais sheep, and giant breeds of rabbits.  And of course, we have lots of Great Pyrenees livestock guardian dogs to look after them all.  They are a fabulous breed, wonderful with people, and great at protecting our critters.

​​

All of our animals are very sweet and love to be petted.   It is quite an experience to relax in our orchard and watch the bunnies frolick and play.  There is a lot to see and experience at Thornfield Heritage Farm.  Come see us and experience the farm for yourself.  The peace and quiet here is very attractive to some, especially to those who have trouble escaping the grind of daily life.

In 2026, we are expanding!  Our tents will be replaced with a metal pavilion to provide a spacious covered area and bathroom facilities for a wider variety of events, including music festivals, birthday parties, weddings, corporate events, workshops, and family reunions! 
 

The event pavilion is adjacent to a grand fenced-in play set for children 10 and under.  In May, we will begin hosting musicians on select Saturday afternoons from  2:00 to 5:00 p.m..  Tickets will be available soon to purchase!!  Tickets will be $20 each for adults and children over the age of 5.  Ages 5 and under get in free of charge.  We hate to charge full price for children, but we have to pay our musicians AND the additional personnel needed as stewards during the afternoon event.
