Pigs!
There may be some challenges in your cleaning duties...

Over 380 rescued farmed animals call Woodstock Farm Sanctuary home. We need 4 to 6 volunteers each day to make our daily operations possible.

Volunteer Activities

Typical volunteer activities include mucking barns and coops, raking, and pasture cleaning on the farm side, and stuffing envelopes, organizing, and helping with database cleanup in the office. Many of the animals will come visit you while you complete your tasks but please remember that some tasks might not include much animal interaction. Volunteering is physically intensive, so expect to get a good workout!

Volunteer Hours

The volunteer hours run from 10:00am-4:00pm Wed-Sun for the farm, and 10:00am-2:00pm Mon-Fri for the office. Our volunteer orientation begins promptly at 10:00am to go over safety rules and assign tasks for the day, so please arrive on time so we can get started on time. Please let us know if you will be running late or you need to adjust your hours. Please email us at volunteer@woodstocksanctuary.org.

Age Restrictions

For safety and liability purposes, all volunteers must be at least 14 years of age, no exceptions. Volunteers who are under the age of 17 will need parent/guardian supervision for the duration of the day.

Mission Statement

Woodstock Farm Sanctuary envisions a peaceful world rooted in respect and justice for all living beings.

Description


We rescue farmed animals and give them care and sanctuary, connect animals with people to advance veganism, and advocate for animal rights in alliance with other social justice movements.

We welcome visitors to come and meet almost 400 rescued animals who are most commonly exploited, abused, and killed in animal agriculture. Our animal residents are given lifelong sanctuary and are treated with respect as individuals. By giving farmed animals the chance to live their lives with dignity and by sharing their stories, we advocate for veganism and aim to reduce suffering for all.
