We’ve received a number of questions about the Supreme Court's recent Prop 12 ruling, and are excited to share answers to your most frequently asked questions.

At Farm Sanctuary, we aim to provide environments and care for the hundreds of farm animals residents who call our sanctuaries home, so that they can truly thrive. While providing this care is not easy, it is well worth it. We want to share our experience during Responsible Animal Guardianship month so that you, too, can be informed and ready if and when you choose to become a responsible animal guardian.

LOS ANGELES - (May 11, 2023) - In a historic day for animals and California voters, the Supreme Court of the United States has upheld Proposition 12. The law, enacted in 2018 by voter initiative with nearly two-thirds support, protects pregnant mother pigs from extreme confinement. It also bans the use of veal crates (for calves), battery cages (for egg-laying hens), and prohibits the sale of products from such inhumane systems in the state of California.

Throughout the month of May, GoMacro will donate a portion of the net proceeds from its vegan Peanut Butter "Give Back" bar in support of Farm Sanctuary!

Women’s History Month is coming to a close but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t continue to celebrate the stories of women. Choosing a book (or more) from this list – though not at all exhaustive – is a great way to continue celebrating and learning from the many women who contribute so greatly to the movement for compassionate, vegan living.

The Agriculture Improvement Act, or “Farm Bill,” is the most important legislation shaping United States food systems. Passed only twice per decade, the bill determines how we grow, distribute, and dispose of food in the United States, and is therefore responsible for the immense harm today's food systems cause to farmed animals, people, and the planet.

This Valentine's Day, guests gathered at Farm Sanctuary to meet our rescued residents, eat vegan treats, and enjoy a speaking presentation with Gene Baur and special guest, Wayne Hsiung.

Farm Sanctuary continues our work in a diverse coalition of organizations officially endorsing the Farm System Reform Act (FSRA) (HR 797 / S 271). This common-sense legislation restricts the expansion and abuses of factory farms, which have been proven to harm animals, communities, and the environment.
