Farm Animal Rescue acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land on which the sanctuary operates, the Garumngar clan of the Jinibara people and we pay our respects to Elders past and present.
Visit Farm Animal Rescue on an Open Day
We are delighted to invite you to Farm Animal Rescue, a place where rescued farm animals live freely and safely. An Open Day at the sanctuary is a truly unique experience that offers an opportunity to meet our incredible animals, hear their powerful stories, and learn about their lives in the food industry.
Each visit to the sanctuary fosters meaningful connections with our residents and raises awareness of the realities faced by farmed animals. And cuddles are always on the table! Bookings are essential, and each visitor must have a valid ticket to enter. We can’t wait to welcome you!
