Welcome Home!

It’s been a long ten days here at Sanctuary One! The Burnt Peak fire in the Miller Complex has been brought under control. The evacuations for our area have been lifted, and staff has returned to the farm. We still have smoky conditions from other fires burning in the complex, but are happy that the immediate danger seems to have passed.

We will begin moving our herd of rescued animals back to the farm this week. This will be a slow process; as with the evacuation, we are taking time to move all animals slowly and with as little stress as possible. We hope to have all residents back by early next week.

Conditions permitting, we hope to resume public tours on Friday, September 22. Some other events scheduled for September have been rescheduled; please see the Events calendar for details. Staff will be in touch will all ticket-holders for these events. Thanks to everyone for your patience!

Our Executive Director, Megan Flowers, wanted to share a story from a recent field trip."A chaperone from the class I led was a grandma of a student. In the garden I shared how our produce goes from the garden beds to someone's kitchen within 48 hours; often 24 hours. I also mentioned that the type of produce we grow was decided by surveying people's needs and requests at The Teresa McCormick Center. The chaperone mentioned her 89 year old mom filled out the survey and was so excited to receive our fresh produce. I told her that she can now go back to her mom and tell her she's seen where the produce is grown!Our garden, lovingly tended by Jess and her team, served three generations - great grandmother, grandmother, and grandchild. Small town living = wide impact."People, animals, and the earth...better together! ... See MoreSee Less
