Unity Farm Sanctuary founders Dr. John Halamka and Kathy Halamka created Unity Farm Sanctuary in late 2016. The mission of Unity Farm Sanctuary is to provide a safe and loving lifelong home for farm animals, to offer the public unique educational programs, and to promote a culture of kindness, compassion and connection. Residents here include alpaca, llama, horses, ponies, miniature horses, sheep,

cows, goats, pigs and a vast array of feathered friends. We network with the community and other organizations to help as many farm animals as possible find loving lifelong homes. By working together with the community on topics such as farm animal care, sustainable organic farming practices, the power of kindness, and volunteerism, we hope to extend our impact for positive change for animals and people alike. To further this end, we host Sanctuary Tours, educational workshops for all ages, wellness and creativity retreats, and are particularly proud of a variety of internship and volunteer opportunities for adults, and students as young as 10 accompanied by a parent. The Sanctuary is located minutes away from the Mass Pike in Natick, yet it is worlds away from urban life in bucolic wooded Sherborn MA. The animal living areas are not open to the public except during our Public Tours, but visitors are encouraged to walk the trails here that connect with the Bay Circuit Trail and are open in daylight hours. We hope you visit our โ€œMeet The Animalsโ€ section of our website to learn more! https://www.unityfarmsanctuary.org/animals

For about the price of a picnic afternoon, you get to hand-feed lettuce to a llama and hold a chicken at this Massachusetts sanctuary west of Boston. Hundreds of rescued cows, goats, and alpacas live out their days here, and it's an easy, low-key day trip.

We miss them with all our hearts. Some of you might remember these furry and feathered friends who have traveled on ahead of us. Sanctuary means that they come here to live in safety, but they also live out their days here and are laid to rest as their journey ends. Each one an individual, each one cherished.๐Ÿ™

The crickets and katydids singing tonight tell us that summer is still going strong. The nearly full moon is headed to a lunar eclipse, starting a little while ago on the East Coast, and peaking here after midnight. If you can, head outside to listen to the sounds of summer in nature (even in urban settings I bet you will hear some crickets).
Did you know the speed of the sound of the crickets can tell you if it is warm or cool?

Dudley, Sunny, Marky and all the rescues are loving the surprisingly gentle temperatures this week. We look forward to good weather for the Kindness and Compassion Tour on Saturday. The patio has been a popular spot this week at Nirvana Tea House and Cafe - not too hot!

We also look forward to hosting the National Grief Awareness Day Event on Sunday with Monarch Meadow Carefarm and Junie's Place.
