About this shelter

Farm Sanctuary - West Coast in Orland, CA

Farm Sanctuary - West Coast is located in Orland, California, in Glenn County, about 90 miles southeast of Sacramento, with 1 other animal shelter or rescue also based in Glenn County. Farm Sanctuary is a nonprofit founded on a mission to end animal agriculture and foster compassionate vegan living through rescue, education, and advocacy, and it began nearly 40 years ago with the rescue of a single sheep, Hilda, found left for dead at a stockyard. The organization rescues farm animals such as cows, pigs, sheep, goats, chickens, turkeys, and ducks, inviting the public to meet these animals as "ambassadors" who can inspire people toward more compassionate choices. Beyond its West Coast location, Farm Sanctuary also operates sanctuaries in Watkins Glen, New York, and Acton (Los Angeles), California, together caring for hundreds of rescued farm animals.
