Our sweet piglet, Betty sure loves snuggle time! Betty came to us 5 weeks ago on the day she was born! Her mother rejected her and she needed immediate care. Betty has been bottle fed since birth and now she is thriving! We love her so much! #pigsofinstagram #piglet #pigletlove #childrensnatureretreat #animalsanctuary #animallove #bottlefed #nonprofitorganization #weneedyoursupport
Christmas Parade!
Headbutting is natural, normal behavior for goats! Goats headbutt as a form of play and to establish their place in the herd.

Penny is one of our beloved Kunekune pigs that came to us in 2017 from an owner who could no longer care for her & her brother Copper. She is 6 years-old and LOVES to have her belly rubbed. Come out to visit so you can see this adorable girl in person! Reservations are no longer needed any day of the week... just show up between 10am-5pm to get your tickets!

This Giving Tuesday is an important one for Children’s Nature Retreat. We need your help now more than ever. Inclement weather in recent months has damaged our shelters significantly and the double digit raise in prices for feed, materials and veterinary care leave us with no other choice than asking you directly for help.
As a 501c3 nonprofit organization, any donation you make is 100% tax deductible. And we really need it, as we are completely community funded. Admissions haven’t been enough lately, so we are reaching out to you to ask that you consider us this #GivingTuesday. No amount is too small and we will be always grateful for your continued support 💚
