A gift that gives back makes the holidays even more meaningful, and lights the path towards a kinder new year.

Watch our virtual roundtable exploring a commonly asked question: Do farm animals have personalities?

On July 26, Farm Sanctuary’s Research Team publicly debuted their ongoing research investigating whether farmed animals can experience something akin to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) after enduring trauma.

On July 1, over 150 people gathered at Farm Sanctuary’s New York location to celebrate the rights of all beings to live freely and peacefully.

In 2022, we said goodbye to some of our best friends — pigs, cows, chickens, turkeys, sheep, goats, ducks, geese, and a llama at the heart of our lifesaving work.

Farm Sanctuary counts on friends like you to move our mission forward. Whether you’ve been a long-time supporter or just began following our work this year, we’re grateful for your partnership in building a more just and compassionate world.

Sanctuary heals and transforms lives — from the rescued animals in our care to the people who love them. Treat them all to a gift that gives back by symbolically adopting a farm animal today.

Consider this: Farmed animals do not have to be farmed. Many of us grow up believing that cows give us milk, chickens give us eggs, sheep give us wool, and meat gives us protein that we need to sustain life. But the biggest misconception is that they “give” us anything: Humans take them, often at the animals’ expense.
