Green Acres Farm Animal Foundation

Green Acres Farm Animal Foundation Farm animal sanctuary focusing on species appropriate husbandry and science-based training practices in Meriden, KS. We appreciate all of your support!

Green Acres Farm Animal Foundation is a 501c3 non-profit animal sanctuary. Our primary focus areas are rehabilitation, training, and providing a forever sanctuary for those who would likely end up in an unfortunate situation if they left the Foundation due to medical or behavioral issues. We strive to use positive reinforcement training methods to help the animals learn necessary husbandry behavio

rs such as medical treatments, as well as to train animals to demonstrate the benefits and effectiveness of the method. We currently house 16 horses, 2 miniature horses, 2 miniature donkeys, 2 small breed cattle, 13 goats, 8 cats and 2 dogs, and as you can imagine this is a lot of work and expense. Every like, share and mention matters!

The hop at the end kills me! Peter Porker is such a funny little dude 🤣 he really makes this difficult time full of laughter. I think someone out there in the universe knew we needed each other 🥰.

There is magic in the mornings. The moon yawning and taking her last look at us until tonight, the stars brightly shining and the sounds of the animals waking up for another day.

This house has stood here strongly since 1926 and the quiet stedfastness of this place always reminds me of my grandparents who chose this peice of land to be our family home in 1954. It is, and always has been, my anchor in the stormy seas of life and I'm honored to keep it so as long as I shall live.

Peter Porker, AKA Petey Pablo 🤣, is starting his lessons in positive reinforcement training.

We usually start with "target" training with all of our animals because it is an easy behavior that can be a building block for many other behaviors like leading or staying where placed.

3 weeks. It's been 3 weeks since Dad suffered a severe aortic dissection and landed in ICU. Normally he would be in this bed, cuddling Felix and Tiggy, but now I spend my Saturday mornings here waiting for his return. Hopefully he'll be back where he belongs soon!!

It's Peter Porker!

The universe must have known I needed a distraction from everything going on with Dad, and this little menace has fit the bill! He's full of a fabulous mix of badness and sweet baby and has become a part of the Foundation family ❤️.

Dad is improving slowly but won't be able to return to his role as primary farm operations and labor for who knows how long, so we need your support!

Managing the farm in the two-ish weeks Dad has been in the ICU has really shown me all the things I don't know how to do...

Managing the farm in the two-ish weeks Dad has been in the ICU has really shown me all the things I don't know how to do. Like I can operate the tractor, but if it breaks 🤷‍♀️...phone a friend territory 😆 (photo of old tractor for nostalgia, ours is a bit newer)

Luckily, I have an amazing family and neighbors supporting me and a man who is so much like my Dad it's both scary and comforting. ❤️

We are going to get through this, one way or another, and all of your support and prayers are so very appreciated 🥰

Our Story

Our mission is to rescue farm animals in need and provide them with rehabilitation, training, and forever sanctuary, if necessary. We adopt out a limited number of horses to approved homes, and provide a forever home to those whose injuries place them at too high a risk to rehome. Many have come from the slaughter pipeline and for that reason, horses must be able to walk, trot and canter calmly under saddle before being adopted. Our goats and cattle are not for adoption at this time. Our second generation farm in NE Kansas aims to produce the forage needed to sustain our sanctuary animals, and to inspire humans to manage land in partnership with nature. We are a 501c3 non-profit organization, your donations are tax deductible!
