The Animal Messenger Sanctuary (Sebastopol, California 95473) provides a safe haven for farm animals, a wildlife refuge, an open-space preserve, and educational opportunities for humans on living respectfully with nature.
The Animal Messenger Sanctuary is dedicated to celebrating the connection between humans and animals and providing an opportunity for humans to receive the wisdom that the Animal Messengers (all living creatures) have to impart to us, reconnecting us to nature and our higher selves in the process.
Its goals are to:
- Provide a free-range home for “farm” animals—sheep, goats, cows, pigs, donkeys—where they can live out their lives with lots of space to roam.
- Provide holistic health care for the animals, using natural medicine approaches to deal with health problems whenever possible.
- Set aside non-pastureland as a wildlife refuge and open-space preserve to conserve a piece of our shrinking green space and wildlife habitats.
- Conduct workshops on the topic of farmed animals, offering people the opportunity to interact with them (it will be the animals’ choice to interact or not) and discover the deep spiritual connection possible between all animals and humans.
