Today was much better as the team went to visit Asher's Farm Sanctuary where they got to meet the beautiful and loving farm animals who have been through terrible hardships and have come to the farm to heal and live out the rest of their days in a happy, healthy and wholesome environment.
Our Vision We hope that visitors who spend time with the animals at our farm sanctuary will be able to gaze upon them with new eyes, recognizing their gentle nature and connecting to them in spirit with understanding and humility. We believe that, in this way, the relationship between animal and man can begin to heal, grow and strengthen.- Asher's Farm Sanctuary
