The first class of Lancaster 9th and 10th grade agricultural students took a field trip to the Roy Crawford Agricultural Complex for a tour. We were impressed with their total interest, great questions, and awesome attitudes around the animals.
The RCAC is home to more than just Gabby’s Sanctuary ARK. We have:
CHICKENS, DUCKS, AND GEESE
The chickens, ducks, and geese are housed in a miniature farmyard where the buildings are actually coops with laying boxes where the eggs can be gathered easily.
SWINE
Two pigs currently call the Agricultural Complex home. The second one looks pretty chill!
HORSES
Gabby’s Sanctuary ARK houses their horses at the Agricultural Center. Patrick graciously took part in a demo and allowed the students to pet him. Patrick is a retired show horse who loves attention. He definitely got what he loves with our visitors.
Do you get excited about new shoes? A farrier came out to shoe some of the horses, and the students were able to watch and learn about the care of horses’ hooves and the shoe fitting process.
We at Gabby’s Sanctuary ARK look forward to working with more of the students and faculty of Lancaster ISD!
