Enjoy the sounds of our hobby farm from dawn until dusk..... from goats to ducks to peacocks and everything in between. Lots of hiking and beautiful waterfalls within a one hour drive. Float down the river or dirt bike in the back country and come back to a cozy fire in the evenings. IG ellison_funny_farm Pitch a tent or pull up in your camper and enjoy the sounds and entertainment our funny farm has to offer. If you are traveling by car only we do have a travel trailer that can be used. We have horses, cows, donkeys, goats, pigs, chickens and ducks and everyone will be happy to meet you. There is great hiking behind the property and beautiful waterfalls within a 45 drive. Campfires are permitted as long as there is no fire ban. We have two livestock guarding dogs that take car of the property so unfortunately no pets please. Our property is located in Barriere, BC. Barriere is a special place with its own unique character. It is located in Kamloops Country in the Thompson Okanagan region of British Columbia. This is a small, friendly community, located only 45 minutes north of Kamloops, that has all the major conveniences of a city but offers a life of quiet, relaxed living. Surrounded by rolling, forest-covered mountains, the local scenery is an excellent example of why British Columbia is known for its spectacular beauty.
