Questions on Bond fund

I am totally invested in Stocks. I don't have any bond fund but I am planning to add some to it.
After some research I found that most of them required a minimum investment of $1000 or $3000.
Is there any bond fund that I can open without this minimum investment. I was looking at Vanguard.
I am not looking to do it in US treasury directly.
Fellow bloggers any advice
