Healing with Holland Lops

A gentle space for military families, connection, and care

Because healing doesn’t always look like a prescription.

On Sunday, June 8, Rock Island Farm is gifting up to two Holland Lop rabbits—along with a full care setup—to two military-connected families navigating the realities of service-related disability. Because sometimes, healing starts with softness, routine, and a little bit of love you didn’t know you needed.

This is a $500 value, gifted with care—because you deserve more than survival.

If your family is selected, you’ll receive:

Up to 2 Holland Lop rabbits of your choice
A complete starter setup (cage, bowls, hay, food, litter, bedding)
Help matching with the best-fit rabbits for your household
The chance to bring your new companions home the same day
Ongoing community connection through Rock Island Farm
