One Tree Sanctuary is a new nonprofit with a primary mission of rescue and refuge for farm animals, while integrating permaculture principles and sustainable land development. If you are passionate about animals and their symbiotic relationship with the land and agriculture, and would love to lend some oversight and knowledge to new building projects, we'd be thrilled for your help! If you have experience with farm buildings, even better! We have coops, barns, and shelters to be built, along with appropriate fencing.
Located in the beautiful Santa Cruz mountains, we are about 30 minutes from Palo Alto, near Fogarty Winery. Perfect location for "coop-raising" and "barn-raising" events!

Mission Statement
One Tree Sanctuary was organized to rescue and provide sanctuary to farmed animals, and to educate the public on sustainable agricultural systems for the mutual benefit of animals, plants, and people.
Description
The primary activity of One Tree Sanctuary is to rescue, rehabilitate, and provide on-going care for abused and neglected farmed animals. The secondary, but equally important, activity is to incorporate these farmed animals into an agroforestry practice that integrates livestock, agriculture and forage production, and forest farming on the same land. Educating the public on this type of sustainable farming method that embraces compassion for farmed animals while also demonstrating the immense benefit created for all by the synergetic relationship between plants, animals, and people is the third key activity. Note that no animals will be culled for food production; rather, each animal will become part of a living system that fosters respect for all living creatures and promotes positive impact on animal welfare as well as the environment.
