Our gardens keep growing! Originally barren rocky earth, our permaculture-inspired gardens have expanded to over 35,000 square feet, with exclusive spaces for our community partners. Starting in 2017, food grown in our gardens is donated to local food bank partners.

Each year we impact the lives of thousands of visitors through farm tours, field trips, and service learning. Our dedicated volunteers and interns perform all aspects of care farming every day of the year, providing nearly 10,000 hours of service annually.

Sanctuary One has grown exponentially since first opening our gates in 2007. This is demonstrated by the dramatic rise in tour requests, partnerships and animal intakes. Community support tells us we’re filling a critical void. But we can’t do it without support.

About Sanctuary One
Better Together
1
People
Working with animals and gardening at a care farm have been widely shown to be healthy exercise, lower blood pressure, ease depression and stress, and help lonely people establish therapeutic relationships.
2
Animals
We specialize in caring for domestic farm and house animals that we take in from animal shelters, humane societies and law-enforcement agencies who call on us to help save an animal’s life.
3
The Earth
What started out as rocky barren dirt has evolved into an amazing 35,000-square-foot permaculture-inspired garden. We now grow delicious vegetables that provide food for people and the animals.
