New Care Farm Docent Program Launches

We’re launching a new Care Farm Docent program this year!

We’re looking for volunteers to join our docent cadre to lead public tours during tour season (April – Oct.). Docents will share the history and the mission of the care farm and encourage visitors to engage with the animals, wildlife, gardens, and learn about volunteer opportunities.

We hope our docents will help promote a deeper understanding and appreciation for what we do at Sanctuary One, and to ensure that the care farm visitors have amazing experiences while here. Docents will be key to helping raise public awareness of the unique partnerships between Sanctuary One and our community partners too. You can read the full volunteer Sanctuary One Care Farm Docent Volunteer Job Description.

Time commitment:  Minimum of 1 tour per month. Tours are 10:30 – 12:30 on Fridays and Saturdays, a minimum 6-month commitment

Job Duration:  Last weekend in April – last weekend in October

Location:  Sanctuary One Care Farm – 13195 Upper Applegate Road   Jacksonville, OR 97530

Adoption Update: Ven (aka Blackjack)!Here's the email Colleen received from Ven's human mom, it sounds like a purrr-fect fit!"Ven is a gem, and I have had the best time with him. I think I found a my friend for life. He is very sweet and he has adjusted to the residence hall with ease. He doesn’t care when we need to leave for fire alarms, and sometimes I put him in his backpack and take him out on walks with me. He is 14 pounds of big boy so he is hard to carry but if it means he can get a taste of outside in safety it’s worth it. I bought him several toys but he prefers to play with boxes and paper bags. His all time favorite toy is a plastic Wendy’s spoon. This last month and a half he has started to chase his tail while on top of his cat tower. It is the only spot I’ve seen him chase his tail. Why he doesn’t do it on the ground is beyond me. He is super chatty, and I was not expecting that from a deaf cat at all but I love it because I can talk back to him even if he doesn’t hear me. I am so happy that you let me adopt this silly goose of a cat. He is perfectly weird and we are a perfect fit (even if he just stole my glasses and hid them under the oven for a week and a half)!" ... See MoreSee Less

Meet Merlin, the powerful wizard!This young boy will surely bring lots of wonder and magic into anyone's life. He loves his doggy pals as well as his two-legged human friends!We don't know much about Merlin's start in life other than he was abandoned with the rest of his litter not far from Rescue Ranch in Yreka CA. While he was reasonably timid at first he quickly learned that we weren't so bad and showed off his goofy and playful personality.He has been amazing in playgroups and loves making new canine friends wherever he goes.Put in an Adoption Application for this awesome boy today: sanctuaryone.org/rescue-animals/adopt-us/adoption-application/ ...
