Your Friends from the Farm

https://www.farmsanctuary.org/

Gene and Lorri Bauston found a living sheep abandoned on a stockyard “dead pile” in 1986.

Once they recovered from the shock, they rescued the sheep, named her Hilda, and went to

work creating the Farm Sanctuary. Within ten years, Farm Sanctuary became the nation’s

largest farm animal rescue and protection organization. They now have a New York shelter and

one in California, 100 miles north of Sacramento. Their website is farmsanctuary.org. Not only

does their organization rescue thousands of farm animals each year, but they are also involved

in groundbreaking campaigns to help animals. Another way you can support this effort is to visit

a sanctuary with your kids, as they often include quaint petting zoos with fuzzy critters!
