We work each day to create a gentler world by rescuing animals, giving them rehabilitation and sanctuary, and then hosting people looking for hope, and opening people’s hearts to the intelligence, affection, and magic of animals.

Visit on Sunday, Tours, Field Trips, Parties

Come hug the cows, give the pig's tummy rubs, cuddle the turkeys, and enjoy a beautiful day at the Gentle Barn!

Programs & Animal Therapy

Need a hug? Feeling sad, lonely, stressed out and scared from the last year? Come heal with us!

Sponsor Animals

Sponsorships provide immediate funds that go directly towards animal care, making it possible for us to address the needs of some of the most vulnerable animals cared for by The Gentle Barn.
