Hi again everyone! This is the part where I get to tell you all about our family, the Miners. Haha. There are 10 of us in all. We are, Laura and Roy Miner, Cherie (that's me ;) ), Meghan, Ellie, Violet, Alexa, Jonathan, Naomi, and our newest member of the family, Tobias, born April 2017. Our family lives on a large piece of property in Madison IN, where all our farm animals live when they aren't at
~About Us~

petting zoos. In case you hadn't already guessed, we homeschool, allowing us to be available at almost any time for your petting zoo. (Though our prime season is generally once school lets out). We also are Christians, and that is where our logo Hope Hills comes from.
Well, the road we live on is called Olive Branch Rd, and that reminded us of Noah, who had to live on his ark for nearly a year, and have faith in God to see him through- kind of like us when we were looking for a farm. For those of you who don't know his story, Noah sent out a dove three times, to see if there was dry land yet. The first time the dove just flew back. The second time, it came back with an olive branch. The third time, it didn't come back at all. This meant it had found dry land to live on. When Noah and his family left the ark, God put a rainbow in the sky, symbolizing he would never send a worldwide flood again. And when we found the property on Olive Branch Road that became our farm, we knew God had fulfilled a promise to us too. And that's why we have the rainbow and dove with an olive branch in our logo.
Hope Hills Petting Zoo was founded in 2013 after we purchased our property and aquired our first farm animals. After all, what better way to share our love of God's creatures than to take them to people?
Thank you for reading and I hope you have a blessed day!
