As a teen leader, you’ll gain hands-on experience working with animals, nature, and children in a supportive, inspiring environment.

We take the time to get to know each volunteer personally and we’re happy to write letters of

recommendation for those who show commitment and leadership.

Interested? Reach out today and become part of something meaningful!

🌈 June – Pride: Unconditional Love Day

Whether you're passionate about animals, advocacy, or event planning we'd love to have you on the team!

General Farm and Barn Work

Typical volunteer activities include cleaning barns, enclosures, and coops. Additional duties may involve organizing supply areas, weeding, feeding animals, and other farm tasks.

While many of our animals may stop by to say hello during your shift, please note that not all tasks will involve direct animal interaction. Volunteering here is physical and hands-on—so come ready for a good workout and a fulfilling day of farm life!

Coming Soon:
Our updated Volunteer Program, launching January 2026, will introduce a level system to help match volunteers with appropriate tasks and track progress as you grow in your skills.

Storm Preppers

🌩️ Join Our On-Call Storm Prep Team!


Help Us Keep the Animals Safe

During Weather Emergencies

We’re building an on-call volunteer list to help us prepare for impending storms and severe weather events.

Storm Prep Volunteers assist with:

  • Bringing animals into their shelters

  • Feeding and checking on animals

  • Dressing animals in jackets/sweaters if needed

  • Securing outdoor equipment and supplies

  • Administering essential medications and pro/prebiotics

 

Your support during these critical times helps ensure every animal stays safe, warm, and cared for.

Want to be part of the team? Sign up today!
