Safety and Protocols
We love our animals dearly and their safety is our utmost concern. Below are some protocols we have put in place to keep everyone healthy and happy:
-
All visitors will be required to sanitize their hands upon entry to prevent parasites from being transferred to the farm.
-
Hand sanitizer will be available throughout the farm. Always sanitize hands before and after feeding or touching the animals.
-
Visitors will also be required to sanitize shoes upon entry by walking through a foot bath consisting of a liquid solution that will sanitize the bottom of shoes.
-
Please ensure that you wear closed toe shoes on your visit to the farm.
-
Goats and Sheep carry an airborne spore that can be deadly to our Reindeer so we ask that you please come in fresh clothes and shoes to avoid any transfer from your farm to ours.
