At Happy Compromise Farm + Sanctuary, we’re on a mission to create a kinder world for animals, humans, and the planet. Our sanctuary and community farm in Waverly, New York, is a safe haven where rescue, restoration, and reconnection thrive. Together, we can change lives and make the world a more compassionate place for all.

PROBLEM

Animal exploitation, environmental degradation, and the lack of inclusive, safe spaces are pressing issues that impact our communities and planet. Each year, countless animals suffer in inhumane conditions, ecosystems are strained under unsustainable practices, and marginalized groups face systemic barriers to equity and safety. This cycle of harm affects us all, creating a world where compassion, sustainability, and inclusivity are overshadowed by neglect and oppression.

SOLUTION

Happy Compromise Farm + Sanctuary provides a beacon of hope and action. Situated in Waverly, New York, our sanctuary rescues abused and neglected animals, providing them with loving, lifelong homes. Through vegan and regenerative agriculture, we cultivate sustainable food systems that heal the planet while feeding our food desert community. As an LGBTQ-founded and -led sanctuary, we’ve built a safe, inclusive space where all beings—human and animal alike—are valued and protected. Together, we nurture a kinder, fairer world, inspiring visitors and supporters to join us in creating lasting change.
