Locket's Meadow Farm (part of Rescues Who Rescue) relies almost entirely on volunteers and fundraising to maintain our 15-acre facility. Housing over 140 rescued animals including about 14 or so different species means we have a lot of upkeep and maintenance. We are in constant need of building supplies (fencing, general building materials, tools, etc.) as well as skilled handymen, contractors, carpenters, electricians, plumbers, etc. who are willing to donate some time on a routine basis for general maintenance/repair and/or for bigger projects like big fence / building projects. This is great for groups too!

Mission Statement
Locket's Meadow strives every day to create a farm animal sanctuary and riding facility that helps to support our passion for rescuing animals from slaughter, abuse and neglect situations, and to give them a place where they can live out their days in comfort and surrounded by love.
Description
Locket's Meadow is a farm animal rescue and sanctuary in Bethany, CT. We began saving PMU foals in 2002, rescued from the Premarin industry, and eventually welcomed horses from other slaughter, abuse and neglect situations. Over the years hundreds of horses have passed through our farm on their way to adoptive homes. Some have stayed and become lesson horses in our programs while others are used for therapy, both mounted and on the ground. Some are unable to work and we offer them retirement, and give the equivalent of Hospice care when the time comes. All are loved as members of our family, as are all the other animals on our farm, from pigs and sheep to goats and roosters.
