Maple Farm Sanctuary is an animal sanctuary providing lifelong homes for abused, abandoned and unwanted farmed animals while promoting veganism and respect for all life through public information. Maple Farm Sanctuary has taken in a fraction of the billions of farmed animals that are bought, sold, tormented and slaughtered by the meat, dairy and fur industries.

"The World Peace Diet
has been called one of the most important books of the 21st century: the foundation of a new society based on the truth of the interconnectedness of all life. It is the first book to make explicit the invisible connections between our culture, our food, and the source of our broad range of problems—and the way to a positive transformation in our individual and collective lives."

Smokey Needs a Forever Home!

3/9/09
Smokey showed up on our doorstep a in December looking for food and someone to love him! He is a sweet boy who is about a 1-1/2 years old. He has been neutered and is up to date on his shots. Smokey is a real snugglebug who loves to sit on your lap and snuggle. He needs to be the only cat in the house because he likes to be King of his Castle! Please contact Cheri at 508-473-7539 about Smokey if you are interested in adopting Smokey.

Willie the Goat is Transported to us for Rehabilitation.
 

2/15/09
Willie has been lame for about two weeks and was transported to the farm to undergo rehabilitation and physical therapy to get him back on his feet. We slid a tarp under his belly and carried him into the van for transport from a small barn in Mendon. Once we got him into the heated goat barn with two elderly goats he settled in nicely and seemed to almost be smiling! He was very happy eating fresh hay and drinking water with orangeade, which entices him to drink. Check back soon for an update on Willie.


Welcome Happy & Jitterbill!

2/12/09
Two new goats arrived this week after their respective owners were no longer able to care for them. They are sharing a stall right now as they become familiar with all of the new sounds and smells of the barn. In another week or so they will be introduced to the other goats as well as the llamas, pigs and sheep.


Meet our newest arrival, Ivan.

12/7/08
Ivan is a gorgeous Icelandic Horse who was reunited at the sanctuary this week with his mother, Stjarna, after 7 years apart! Ivan's caregivers could no longer keep him so after a lot of discussion over the options and consideration of best placement, we agreed to take him in. The reunion was incredible... Ivan and his mom recognized each other immediately and began nuzzling each other the way that only intimately close horses will do! The very happy moment was caught on video. Click here to watch!


Ivan just a few minutes after he was born at Maple Farm Sanctuary!
