Rescuing Animals, Changing Lives

Our sanctuary is home to animals who have found refuge from abuse, neglect, and exploitation. Each animal at Happy Compromise Farm + Sanctuary has an individual story of resilience. Here, they experience love, care, and freedom, often for the first time.

  • Animals Rescued: More than 100 farmed and companion animals currently call the sanctuary their forever home.

  • Forever Homes: Every resident receives individualized care, ensuring their physical and emotional well-being.

  • Advocacy: We speak up and educate people about animal agriculture and its impacts on animals, humans, and the environment. We can make the most change for the welfare of animals through the compassionate people we can reach.

Fighting Food Insecurity

Located in a food desert where nearly 19% of adults experience food insecurity, we recognize the urgent need to address food access. Through veganic, regenerative agriculture, we’re growing fresh, plant-based food to feed our community and teaching others how to grow their own.

  • Free Farm Stand: We are currently entering our third season of the Free Farm Stand, Last year, we gave away more than 3,000 pounds of beyond-organic produce.

  • Plant Starts Shared: Over 2,000 plant starts have been given away to help individuals and families start their own gardens and gain food sovereignty.

  • Community-Focused: Every step we take is aimed at ensuring no one goes hungry and healthy food is accessible to all.

Empowering Community and Connection

We know that real change happens when we work together. That’s why we’re committed to building a stronger, more inclusive community through education, advocacy, and safe spaces.

  • Open Volunteer Days: Twice a month we have open volunteer days where anyone can join us to work on the community farm and meet our rescued residents.

  • Monthly Classes: Through our partnership with the Waverly Library, we are teaching our community how to grow their own food.

  • Safe Spaces: As an LGBTQ-founded and -led organization, we’re dedicated to ensuring everyone who visits feels welcome, respected, and valued.
