For the Sake of One Meal ~ Have a Vegan Thanksgiving and Save Turkeys’ Lives
It’s that time of year again. The leaves are falling, the temperature is dropping, pumpkin flavored everything is everywhere, and families are planning to gather and express gratitude for one another and the gifts of life. It’s time for Thanksgiving, and millions of turkeys will die needlessly.
Happy Mothers
The maternal instincts that we humans have are not dissimilar to those of other animals. Farm animals like cows, pigs, chickens, turkeys, goats, and sheep all desire to be happy mothers!
Animals in LOVE
There is strong scientific evidence that animals experience a spectrum of emotions – including, yes, LOVE. Read stories of the the love between animals, including some of our rescued animals at Changing Hearts Farm Sanctuary.
What Every Animal Lover Should Know About Animal Farming
It’s a day I will never forget. I learned that dairy and eggs can never be humane. They are incredibly cruel industries, even from local, “humane” farms.
On my own in a new town, I stopped in for breakfast at a restaurant highly recommended by many of my friends—some of whom were vegetarian, like myself.

Visiting Changing Hearts Farm Sanctuary
We here at Changing Hearts Farm Sanctuary hold as one of the most important parts of our mission providing the opportunity for as many folks as possible to mix and mingle with the animals that most of us have otherwise been taught to view as food or products.
Cassidy's Story
Cassidy was a mere five months old when he came to us, along with his mother Rosebud. He was part of a succession of calves who had been bred and born into a situation where they were viewed and used as commodities.
Rosebud's Story
Sweet Rosebud formerly lived on a homestead. The family who was keeping her had endeavored to live “off the land” and “off the grid”. But, as happens all too often in these types of situations, they later had a change of heart.
A Mother Pig's Plight
Our very first rescue, Jimmy, came to us after he was discovered lying next to his deceased mother and siblings in some woods.
Jimmy's Story: Our First Resident
Dear Jimmy came into our care even before the buildout of the sanctuary. But when we were contacted by two incredible women working in rescue (whom we’d met during a prior case at a sanctuary where we had previously volunteered) we knew it was meant to be that he would become part of our family!
A Day at the Sanctuary!
Welcome dear friend, to our premiere blog post. We are so glad you are here… and perhaps, if you live nearby, you might come to visit us in person, or stay at our Sanctuary Tiny House!
