Storybook Farm is totally volunteer run. We always need people that have a heart for animals and people. Do you like bunnies, pigs, dogs, cats, donkeys, horses or cows? Perhaps you love to plan events, do small construction projects or love taking photos and posting on social media. No animal experience? We can teach you how to care for the animals.
