All of us at Farm Sanctuary are grateful to have been nominated by Newsweek’s editorial team and voted for by members of the public who were moved by visiting our Acton, California shelter, meeting our rescued farm animal residents, and hearing their inspiring stories. 

Newsweek reaches more than 100 million people monthly, and Farm Sanctuary’s recognition with a Readers’ Choice Award will help spread our message of compassion for farm animals across the country and around the world.

Our California sanctuary is located just 45 minutes from all there is to do and see in Hollywood, and is home to around 100 rescued farm animals.

On an hour-long guided tour, you’ll meet some of our animal residents, hear their stories of rescue and resilience, and learn more about Farm Sanctuary’s work for animals, people, and the planet.

After meeting our farm animal friends, visit our Sanctuary Shop, which contains apparel, vegan goodies, educational literature, sustainable goods, and more.

Public and private tours of our California sanctuary are available for booking year-round. We can’t wait to see you there soon!
