About Us!
Our Foundation
St Croix Valley Hobby Farm was founded in August 2023, with the goal of creating an inviting environment where individuals and families can engage with animals and embrace the beauty of nature. SCV Hobby Farm was a dream turned reality with our mission to spread joy, laughter, and a deeper understanding and compassion for animals and farming alike. We encourage you to come on by so we can share our passion with you!
Our Mission
At St. Croix Valley Hobby Farm, our mission is to reconnect people with the healing power of nature and animals. Built by family, fueled by faith, and rooted in resilience, we’ve transformed a simple cornfield into a sanctuary for play, learning, and restoration. Whether you’re walking our Look & Find Trails, sipping coffee from our drive-through, celebrating a birthday, or dropping off your child for nature-based care, every visit supports a vision bigger than ourselves.
Our Vision
We envision a farm that grows beyond fences a place where education, compassion, and community blossom side by side. Our goal is to inspire a deeper appreciation for animals, agriculture, and the natural world in every person who visits. Whether it’s through hands-on experiences, animal rescue, or seasonal events, we hope to plant seeds of stewardship and joy that last a lifetime. With each step forward, we’re guided by the belief that small farms can make a big difference.
