A LITTLE PLANNING, A LOVELY VISIT

A little more about bunny hosting.

After hosting, all bunnies are returned to Two Little Acres, where they continue to be lovingly cared for on the farm. Our bunnies become adoptable at 12 weeks old, and families who are interested in adopting their hosted bunny are welcome to contact us to be placed on the adoption waitlist.

No. At Two Little Acres, animal welfare comes first. We work with families who value gentle care and follow clear, firm instructions for handling, feeding, and rest. Hosting is intentionally structured, supervised, and time-limited to ensure the experience is safe and positive for the bunnies and the families hosting them.

Pick-up and drop-off hours are between 10:00am–7:00pm. It’s important that families arrive on their designated day so other families’ experiences aren’t affected. If you need to pick up or drop off within your one-week reservation window, I can accommodate that—just communicate ahead of time.

Yes. If you don’t already have one at home, playpens are available and can be added on to your bunny hosting rental to provide an additional safe, enclosed space for your bunny.

THEIR WELLBEING COMES FIRST

Thoughtful care, from our farm to your home.

For one week over Easter, your family will bring home a small, 8-week-old baby bunny (approximately 2 lbs) to care for in your own home. This is a private, at-home experience designed for calm, low-stimulation environments where children can learn gentle, supervised handling and basic animal care. During your scheduled pick-up window, you will choose your bunny from that week’s litter, with each bunny varying in color and personality. The experience includes everything you need for a simple, structured week : enclosure, feed, and support so you can focus on quiet, meaningful interaction. This is a calm, educational, and memorable week built around trust, thoughtful preparation, and the joy of caring for something together. *Offered seasonally in limited quantities.
