A Different Kind of Farm

We had such a great time participating in @saratogaplan's second Saratoga Farm Showcase! The weather was beautiful this year, and we had dozens of visitors of all ages who came to meet our animal residents, learn about our mission, and plant pumpkin seeds to bring back in the fall. We're fired up by the support of our community and compassionate conversations we had. Thanks to everyone who attended and Dawn Szurek for the photos!

Can't wait for @saratogaplan's Saratoga Farm Showcase tomorrow! 🚜 We love giving kids the chance to meet our residents in a way that’s fun, gentle, and respectful—for both the animals and their visitors. 💚 Many of our residents are curious and enjoy making new friends—but this isn’t a petting zoo. Every animal here gets to choose how (and if!) they want to interact. That’s part of what makes the experience so special. Every visit plants a seed of compassion that can grow into a better future. 🐐✨

We are so excited to participate in @saratogaplan's second Farm Showcase! As an all-volunteer nonprofit, it can be challenging for us to host our own events, so being able to welcome visitors to the farm and support Saratoga PLAN's mission to protect farmland and nature is a great opportunity! We hope you can join us! Info & tickets at saratogaplan.org

We had a great time at @capregionvegans's Veg Out festival in Troy this weekend and we’re thrilled to officially welcome Julieanne MacDonald to City Goat Farm’s Board of Directors! A lifelong animal lover, Julieanne led a remarkable three-year rescue effort that saved 38 neglected goats and sheep—many of them pregnant—who had been left to suffer in her neighborhood. City Goat was proud to provide homes for 14 of the herd, including their babies. Julieanne brings unmatched dedication, experience, and deep compassion to our mission, and we’re so glad to have her join our all-volunteer team. 💕🐑🐐

Here it is, your moment of Zen. 🐖
