For those of you a little farther away who wish to donate, this is your chance. Thanks so much for bringing awareness to our cause!

Stuffies wanted!! Bring in your new or gently used stuffed animals anytime this week for SAFE Wisconsin - Stuffed Animals for Emergencies.

SAFE Wisconsin collects stuffed animals, cleans and sanitizes them, and gets them into the hands of organizations helping children through traumatic situations, including hospitals, EMTs, emergency rooms, shelters, counseling centers, social services and more.

Because when you're a scared kid in an unfamiliar place, a stuffed animal isn't just a stuffed animal. It's something soft to hold onto. A distraction. A little bit of comfort and security when everything around you feels scary and uncertain.

Now through Sunday, Sept 13th, we're collecting new AND gently used stuffed animals here at the farm.

So take a look around your house before you come to Burger Night or the farm store and see if you have any friends lying around that are:

🧸 Clean & cuddly
🧸 Free of rips, tears or missing parts
🧸 Free of badly stained or matted fur
🧸 Still wearing their tags, if they have them

Your forgotten stuffed animals might become a child's really needed friend. ❤

Or, just come out and eat a burger Thursday night and we'll donate $2 to them.....burgers buying bears. Nice.
