🍂🐐 What a beautiful day Autumn Open Farm turned out to be! 🍁💛

To every volunteer and every guest who joined us today, THANK YOU!

Our volunteers went above and beyond, from making costumes for our donkey girls to preparing treats for the kiddos, and most importantly, simply showing up to support and care for our animals. We are so grateful for each of you!

It was wonderful to welcome back some familiar faces and make so many new friends, too. Sharing our residents’ stories, learning together, and smashing pumpkins alongside all of you made for such a special day.

Thank you for spending part of your Sunday with us and helping make today so beautiful. Our animals are lucky to have so many people who care about them, and so are we.

Thank you to everyone who came out to join us for Sheep Days of Summer! 🐑☀️

This event was a fundraiser for our newest rescue, Bilbo, and his medical expenses. The animals loved meeting so many new faces, and we loved sharing a little piece of the sanctuary with our community.

We can’t wait to keep doing more public events! We truly couldn’t do what we do without the support of our amazing community. Thank you for being part of it! And a HUGE thanks to all our volunteers! We couldn’t do what we do without you 💚💚💚

💛 Bilbo is home! 💛

Hopefully, after the very last of his surgeries! This little trooper has been through so much. 🐑

He’s under extra quarantine, but already enjoying volunteer love, brushing, classical music, and snuggles with his teddy bear. We think he’s going to be just fine. 🧸🎶

We still need your support! Please join us for Sheep Days of Summer on September 27 and consider donating to help with Bilbo’s care. Every bit helps! 💛
