DESCRIPTION
-
Come pet donkeys, give pigs belly rubs, cuddle chickens, and enjoy an unforgettable day at Love Always! Volunteers are here to help you interact with the animals in a way that is safe and fun for animals and people, alike.
​
BRINGING OUTSIDE FOOD
-
We have delicious, plant-based hot dogs, snacks and drinks for purchase; however, you are welcome to bring your own drinks, food, and snacks to enjoy at our picnic tables. Out of respect for the animals, we kindly ask that you do not bring any dairy, eggs, or meat (including fish) onto the property.​
-
No food or drinks are allowed in the animal yards or enclosures.​​
THINGS TO NOTE
-
This is a safe haven for animals, not a petting zoo. You are visiting them in their home. Animals are never forced to interact with guests and are given the ability to walk away, should they choose to do so. Thank you for loving the animals with us.
-
Service and companion animals are welcome on sanctuary property, but not allowed in any of the animal yards or enclosures. Animals cannot be left in cars.
-
Wear clothing that you don't care about getting dirty. This is a farm setting, so mud and poop are kind of a thing here. We recommend long pants and closed-toed shoes. A hat, sunscreen, and a water bottle are also a great idea.
