Our Story
Triple C Farm
A Family's Commitment to Creating Inclusivity
Triple C Farm began with a simple but powerful dream: to build a life where family, animals, and meaningful opportunities could grow together. In 2013, Trish purchased the farm to help her son Geoffrey pursue his dream of becoming a farmer. Alongside his brothers, Michael and Richard, the farm quickly became a place where the boys could learn responsibility, develop life skills, and build independence in a supportive, hands-on environment.
The farm first operated as a small horse boarding facility, but it didn’t stay small for long. As the boys’ love for animals grew, so did the farm. Animals in need began finding their way to the property—rescued from re-homing situations, neglect, and auctions. Each new arrival became part of the family and found a safe, permanent home. What started as a personal journey soon grew into a deeper purpose.
In 2014, inspired by the joy the animals brought to their family, Trish began opening the farm to the community. What started as sharing a small piece of their world has grown into a welcoming space for families from all walks of life—especially those with children who have special needs. Visitors come to meet the animals, spend time outdoors, and enjoy a calm, inclusive environment where everyone is free to learn, explore, and feel accepted.
As the farm grew, so did its mission. The long-held dream of creating opportunities for adults with developmental disabilities became a reality, and Triple C Farm evolved into both an animal sanctuary and a volunteer program. Today, individuals can learn practical skills, gain confidence, and experience the pride that comes from meaningful work while helping care for the animals.Triple C Farm is more than a farm. It is a sanctuary for animals, a learning space for individuals, and a place where families can create lasting memories together. Every animal has a story. Every visitor becomes part of the farm’s story. And at the heart of it all is a family’s commitment to creating a place where everyone belongs.
Meet The Family
Trish
Trish is the owner of Triple C Farm and the mother of Richard, Geoffrey, and Mikey. Her vision for the farm was deeply rooted in love and purpose—she did not want her sons growing up in group homes, so she created a place where they could learn responsibility, purpose, and meaningful work in a supportive environment.
What began as a family solution grew into a lifelong passion. Trish has become a mother figure not only to her boys, but also to countless animals, staff, and volunteers who are part of the farm community. She is a strong advocate for animal rescue and is deeply committed to giving every animal in her care a safe, loving home.
Always on the move and involved in every part of the farm, Trish can be hard to catch—but if you do, you’ll be treated to her incredible stories and warm presence. Her dedication to both her family and the animals is at the heart of everything the farm stands for.

Pascal
Pascal, also known as the “Goat-Father,” is an essential part of life at Triple C Farm. He is the farm’s go-to builder, fixer, and all-around problem solver—if something needs to be built, repaired, or improved, Pascal is usually the one bringing it to life.
He works closely with Trish to support the farm’s vision, helping turn ideas into reality through hands-on building and maintenance across the property. From everyday repairs to larger projects, his work is woven throughout the farm.
Pascal also takes part in many of the farm’s travel and events, bringing his energy and experience on the road. Known for his easygoing personality and sense of fun, he’s never far from a good time and always helps bring a lively spirit wherever he goes.
Geoffrey
Geoffrey was the original inspiration behind Triple C Farm. As the eldest of the family, it had always been his dream to become a farmer, and that dream helped shape the farm into what it is today.
Geoff is always on the move, working to care for the animals and keep the farm running. He is responsible for feeding grain to all of the animals and making sure they always have plenty of hay. You'll often spot him zipping around the property, checking in on everyone from the largest horse to the smallest goat. If you're curious about one of our animals, just ask Geoff—he knows them all by name and can tell you all about them!
Richard
Richard is the heart behind many of the daily chores that keep the farm running smoothly. He is responsible for making sure all of our animals have fresh water and clean, comfortable barns to call home.
A lover of music and movies, Richard can often be found with a trumpet or viola in hand, serenading visitors as they arrive. He especially enjoys spending time with children and is always happy to greet our younger guests with a smile and a friendly chat. If you see him around the farm, be sure to ask him about his favourite movie—you might be there for a while!
Michael
Mikey is one of the hardworking members of the farm team and is always happy to lend a hand wherever it’s needed. He can often be found cleaning paddocks, bagging hay, or making his signature silly animal noises in the Sea Can.
Like his twin Richard, Mikey is a big fan of movies and enjoys spending his time surrounded by both animals and family. While Mikey is mostly non-verbal, he loves being part of the farm community and would be delighted to receive a friendly wave and a smile when you see him around the property.
