Welcome to Rambling Dog Farm

Rambling Dog Farm is a small horse and hay farm located near  Trap Pond State Park in Sussex County, Delaware. Its fields and woods are also home to white-tailed deer, red foxes, broad-winged hawks, great blue herons, barred owls, and the occasional migrating wood duck.

In 2025 we enrolled the farm’s 10 acres of wooded wetlands in a Wetlands Reserve Easement (WRE) from the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), a branch of the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The 10 acres being enrolled in the in the WRE program include a small pond.  Though modest in size, this area connects to a much larger stretch of forest near Trap Pond, helping preserve a valuable piece of the local ecosystem.

As part of the WRE program, the protected acres will be restored to improve the function ing of the wetlands, enhancing the pond the surrounding woods as a habitat for wildlife.
