About Graceful Farm Sanctuary:
“Graceful Farm Sanctuary got its name from our beautiful dwarf Nigerian goat Grace, and although she only blessed us with six months of her incredible and happy life, she smiled through all the pain she endured and gave us a new sense of what the meaning of life truly is. Her sudden passing left us feeling empty, confused and heartbroken, but also led us in the direction of rescuing animals that could not help themselves or were being sent to slaughter.
We currently have about 60 animals at our sanctuary, and although every single day is a blessing to have helped each and every one of them, it’s extremely challenging and a lot of hard work. But at the end of every single day, the reward is far greater than we ever imagined!”
