Join us for a compassionate Thanksgiving celebration replete with holiday fare, entertainment and a silent auction to benefit the sanctuary’s rescued animals.
Guests will enjoy a candlelit gourmet vegan dinner; a performance by musician Jonathan Richman; and special presentations from actress and animal advocate Daniela Sea, Farm Sanctuary California Shelter Director Leanne Cronquist, cookbook author Colleen Patrick-Goudreau, and Farm Sanctuary President and Co-Founder Gene Baur.
Guests can also spend time with some of our friendly farm animal residents and, during our popular “Feeding of the Turkeys” ceremony, help us treat delighted turkeys to a feast of squash, pumpkin pie and cranberries.
This is a joyful event for humans and turkeys alike.

How we are trying to make this event "green":
Inevitably, intensive animal agriculture depletes valuable natural resources. Instead of being eaten by people, the vast majority of grain harvested in the U.S. is fed to farm animals. This wasteful and inefficient practice has forced agribusiness to exploit vast stretches of land. Forests, wetlands, and other natural ecosystems and wildlife habitats have been decimated and turned into crop and grazing land. Scarce fossil fuels, groundwater, and topsoil resources which took millenium to develop are now disappearing. More information at Farm Sanctuary's website, see Issues. |
