About Us
Sunrise Farm is a family oriented farm in Polk County North Carolina. Our objective is to raise animals naturally (not certified organic but very minimal use of chemicals and medications) and eventually make a living at this. We started off with registered Dexter Cattle as well as Katahdin Sheep and mixed breed goats, which have now been replaced by Dairy Goats and American Guinea Hogs.

As of the fall of 2009 we are selling off all our sheep, Berkshires hogs, Heritage Turkeys and Cattle to concentrate on our dairy goat operation and American Guinea Hogs. We have recently had our entire dairy goat herd Linear Appraised and  have posted a breeding schedule along with prices for 2010 kids (French Alpines, American Alpines and Nubians) in October if you wish to reserve one. We do offer substantial discounts to 4-H members or participants in the 2010 Spindale Goat festival as well as PDGA (Piedmont Dairy Goat Association) members.

Contact us if you are interested in any of the above

We chose the name Sunrise Farm as it reflects the daily routine that begins at sunrise as well as to emphasize our dedication and use of solar energy to minimize environmental impacts.

 
We want to create a place where our children as well as local children can appreciate the beauty of nature and understand the benefits of conservation and hard work.

 

Sunrise Farm is a co-ordinated effort between Robin and Ziggy along with Robin's son and daughter and Ziggy's son. Robin is a chemist who works full time as a Quality Manager and Ziggy  works full time as a software business professional for a major software company.

 

The children, Alex, Kasandra and William help out by feeding and assisting with farm tasks on an age appropriate basis.

 

Note: Since we are located in an area of many other farms and active equine activity we are open to business proposals for sale and distribution of environmentally friendly products for home and farm use.


Company history
Sunrise Farm was created in 2005 with the purchase of a neglected property of 20 acres. The first year was spent clearing brush and fixing fences as well as purchasing our first farm Animal - a bred Dexter cow named BlueBell from Gene Bowen of Paradise Farm in Virginia.

 

 This website was created on September 21/2006 and will be updated as we have more to offer. Please check back for more information or contact us via email with any inquiries.
