We are thrilled to announce the launch of our new Reel Life at Farm Sanctuary video series! Giving you an exclusive sneak peek behind our barn doors on a monthly basis, these fascinating “Sanctuary Tails” v-logs will transport you straight to our beautiful, bustling sanctuaries where you’ll follow the activities of our shelter staff and animal residents as they carry out their daily routines. You are sure to be captivated, delighted and moved by all that you learn and see!
In this our first exciting episode, National Shelter Director Susie Coston explains the importance of pasture rotation and takes you right along as she shows the New York Shelter cattle, sheep and goats that the grass really is greener in different parts of the farm. You definitely won’t want to miss this chance to see our cute farm animal friends frolicking in the fields, so tune in now to watch!
This was one of the most beautiful, moving videos I've ever seen. Amazing how the animals followed peacefully, without fear. Just like paradise!

Like so many others who have watched this video, I'm trying to remind people about the horrors of factory farming and therefore expose myself time and again to images of suffering and cruelty. This video is a much-needed reward for those of us who struggle with the searing images of factory farming. Thank you for reminding us that because of your incredible organization, some of its victims have been saved and are living as they should--in a pastoral setting among friends and caring human beings. Bless you all.

I have to agree with Sheila. Seeing all of those horrible films, clips of slaughterhouses, animal abuse, etc., I just really appreciate you giving us a chance to see how happy your animals are. They must know how truly blessed they are to know you and to be in your care. Thank you for all you do.

We visited the Farm Santuary in New York state several summers ago. It was so beautiful and peaceful. It makes my heart glad for the animals living there.

Thank you for being so compassionate to these sweet animals. Just noticing how clean they all were made me weep. My heart is bursting with joy for them and sadness for the rest who aren't as blessed. There should be more people like you in the world.

This video was posted on my birthday, and even though I just saw it now, I feel like it's a special birthday treat for me! I recently read Eating Animals by Jonathan Safran Foer and have now been a vegetarian for two weeks. Since you are one of the organizations mentioned in his important book, I visited your website and am now the proud sponsor of a California pig! Thank you for the beautiful work you do and please keep spreading awareness about the evils of factory farming.
With gratitude,
Sabrina

Dear Farm Sanctuary,
Thank you for this lovely video.
After all the horror stories, I really needed to see the animals
romping around and enjoying the fresh air & grass.
In the light of the recent egg recall, as well as the meat recall, is there anything being done in the animal right's community to try to connect these recalls with unhealthy factory farming practices?
For the animals,
Sheila Delson

Lovely video. This will surely help more people become vegan and the ripple effect goes on and on...
