We used our personal funds to build a house on the property for us to live in. With what was left, we were able to fence in several acres and build a few small shelters. We still need to build barns, larger shelters, coops and more fencing for our animals. All of that is expensive and we need your help and support. You can donate to Tabernacle Farm via Patreon or through PayPal . Paypal will show “Thomas Winegard” as that is Jerry’s first name. Your donations go a long way in our effort to care for our farm animals and to expand. We truly appreciate your help, so please consider donating monthly via Patreon or one time via PayPal. Jerry and Cynthia

We have 6 pygmy goats, 2 fainting goats, 2 sheep, 2 miniature donkeys, 2 miniature horses, 1 Scottish Highland cow, and 23 chickens on our farm. We'll take you right up to the fence where you can see all the animals. If you print and sign this waiver , and bring it with you to the farm, we will let you pet and feed them. If you've never hugged a donkey before, you are missing out. Have you ever had a goat nibble on your fingers? Do you want to let a farm animal eat out of your hand? You can do all of this by arranging a visit to the farm where we will accompany you into the pasture to let you experience the life of farm animals first hand. Don't wear your good shoes as you just might step in some poop. We don't charge for this but donations to help cover the cost of feed are appreciated. Sorry for the waiver requirement, but the insurance people say we gotta have it.If you really take a liking to one of our animals, you may sponsor one (or more). By sponsoring, you are helping, on a monthly basis, to provide them with food, shelter, supplies, veterinary care and more. To find out more about sponsoring an animal on our farm, click here
