That Time I Got Pig Mites
What started as adorable piglet cuddle sessions quickly turned into an unexpected crash course in farm life when our new Kunekune piglets brought home more than just personality.

At The Heritage Farm at Stevens Creek, the very first building is nearly complete… and it’s not just any barn. It’s a goat barn — but with a twist. Think arched doors, custom trim, and European-inspired details you don’t typically find on a working farm. This isn’t just a shelter for our Angoras; it’s a statement of intention, a celebration of design, and a reflection of what this land means to me.
