The Retreat is specifically designed to help children develop a sense of w

onder for nature and its inhabitants through unstructured exploration and learning. Fun and educational `interactive encounters’ are available for everyone to learn and foster an appreciation for animals, nature, sustainable farming and the ecosystem. Our Vision

In our increasingly digital-dependent and urbanized world, we are loosing touch with nature. With this in mind, we believe the Children’s Nature Retreat offers a rich connection to the earth, its plants and animals. We allow guests to step away from their fast pace life, reduce stress levels and find their balance in nature.

Bamboo moved to Cheyenne’s enclosure to be next to Boots and Lance. He loves it. The corral we used to give some love to Cheyenne can now be used to be closer to Bamboo. Since the fire in 2020 and the evacuation, Bamboo had to be separated from the African animals and approaching him was difficult. We hope to change that 💚🙏🏻💚

Saying Goodbye to Hula 💔
This week, our baby emu visited Good Business San Diego on K**I — and something special happened. Producer Hula Ramos was there, everyone fell in love with our little guy, and the team suggested the perfect new name for him: Hula. We’d actually been hoping to give him a new name for a while, one that felt as sweet as he was — we just hadn’t found the right fit yet.
We wish we could share Hula’s new name under happier circumstances. Yesterday, we had to say goodbye to him.
For two weeks, he was making real progress — gaining weight, growing stronger, healing well. But new X-ray results showed his body had taken a turn we didn’t see coming. The tendons and ligaments in his leg were beyond repair without surgery, and his right leg had a slight twist that would have kept him from ever standing steadily on both legs as he grew.
We did everything we could for him. We’re heartbroken it wasn’t enough.
Thank you to everyone who followed his story, cheered him on, and sent love his way. He was so deeply loved in his short life, and that love mattered.
Rest easy, sweet Hula. 🪶
Hula Ramos

Our tortoises big and small enjoy their lives at the farm. They have plenty to roam and enjoy their hay and veggies from the garden or even some mulberry leaves.
