Kia ora ✨️💚🐔🐃🐄🐂🐑🐷🐗🦤🦆🪽🦋🌿🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Welcome to our page. Myself (Andy) and my partner Dalina (we're a queer couple), are kaitiaki (guardians) of this animal sanctuary
We are a vegan animal haven, rescue and permanent home to 21 moo kids - one is technically a sheep but he is very much part of the moo kid family. 4 sheep, 3pigs, 9 chickens, 4 ducks and some occasional wildlife friends.
We are also a place of refuge for humans needing a healing space. This means that we may be aiding individuals in a vulnerable state or position. For this reason, we are exclusively seeking people who possess strong emotional intelligence, effective communication skills, and a calm demeanour. Generally speaking, we only have female or queer people stay as there are a lot of people struggling with male- specific trauma and needing space from a male dominated world. Males are also welcome to apply if mindful of this.
We are committed to sustainable practices including minimizing consumerism, reforesting areas with native trees and not consuming animal products.
Our daily lives include juggling my full time online work, Dalina's full time study (primary teaching), looking after all the kiddos plus the mammoth mammoth task of setting up an entirely new sanctuary site so we can keep these precious rescue kiddos safe.
If you are keen to experience off grid animal loving living surrounded by nature, we would so so so love to hear from you!!

Our work tends to be pretty physical with some less intensive projects ranging from propogating and planting trees, to piggy cuddle time, bringing hay and meds to the big moo kids, daily feeding and cleaning/special needs care routines, lots of fencing, lots of building, digging drains and lots more.

Alojamiento
We have two cabins. They very basic and minimal but also toasty warm and cosy. The first cabin has a kitchen our bedroom. The second cabin will is for storage and volunteer bedroom. There is power in both cabins. However, we are on solar, so in winter or on stormy days power/ wifi might not always be available. (We do have a back up generator though). There is no signal by the cabins, but we have Wifi that works well.
We have running water to the kitchen. The shower is outdoors, but thanks to our califont cold showers are in the past 😅.
We are still setting up the property and our living area. So, if you are keen to come and are happy to live a bit minimally, we would LOVE your help and could totally have an awesome time together getting stuff done.
Our sanctuary is vegan with our kids being almost exclusively rescued from the animal agriculture industries. We are also on a super tight budget. You absolutely do not have to be vegan to come here but you would need to be okay with eating vegan while you are here and keeping animal products off property.
