We Were Founded With A Simple Goal

Make the world a better place. We do that by caring for rescued farmed animals and providing an idyllic sanctuary for children and families to visit and enjoy the animals and cultivated lavender and seasonal vegetables. We offer educational tours, volunteer and internship opportunities.

At Rosie's Farm Sanctuary, we understand everyone is on a different path. Our hope is foster a new awareness of the food industry and understanding about farmed animals while teaching about the benefits of plant-based eating and compassion towards all living beings

By advocating for animal rights and building community, we reconnect people with all the beauty that nature and animals have to offer. We aim to eliminate cruelty to animals and spread compassion into the hearts of all beings.

What We Do

Rescue

We rescue and rehabilitate farmed animals, providing them with a forever home. Experiencing the relative freedom they have never known before, our residents get to live out the rest of their lives as the individuals they are meant to be in this world.

Educate

Rosie’s Farm Sanctuary welcomes visitors to spend time on the farm, self-selecting seasonal crops to buy and meeting the animals as well as their caregivers.

Advocate

We aim to be a compassionate voice for animals who often go unseen and unheard. Most of us would never wish an animal harm, but the consumption of animal products is deeply ingrained in our society.

Did you know chickens read emotions the same way dogs and cats do?

Judy is not a snuggly lap chicken, not even with Joddie, our vet tech, who she knows and loves. But last night Joddie came in grieving the loss of her sweet 21 (!) year-old cat, Rosie, and for the first time ever, Judy climbed out of her foot soak and up into Joddie’s lap.

Chickens pick up on micro-expressions, body language, and the tone of your voice. They notice the sadness you’re trying to hold together. Research shows they experience genuine emotional empathy—when someone they trust is hurting, they feel it too.

Joddie has shown up for every animal here. Last night, Judy showed up for her. 💜
