🌟 It's finally here... our Goat Village! 🌟

Our talented craftsmen have been hard at work designing and building some amazing new structures just for our playful goats. There's a tower, a multi-tiered platform, a see-saw, and even a swing!

Goats are natural adventurers who love to explore, play, and, especially, climb! These new additions are designed to encourage their natural behaviours, keeping them happy, active, and enriched.

All the structures are made from natural wood, and we’ve even repurposed timber from trees that came down during Storm Darragh - giving them a new lease on life in our goats’ play area.

And we’re not done yet! Still to come are some exciting features like scratching posts and a log pile. But one thing’s for sure: the goats haven’t waited for the finishing touches - they’ve already been busy exploring their brand-new playground! 🐐💚

This project was made possible by the kind donations of our supporters, as well as support from the L E Andrews Trust. A huge thank you for enriching the lives of our animals and helping us provide them with the best care possible.

We’ve had some snow here at the sanctuary, but Jess is staying warm and cosy inside 💚

We have our Pig Barn & Woodland and our Home for Rescued Hens... but now something very exciting is taking shape in our goat field... 👀🐐

This is the first of a few structures being built and we can't wait to share more in the next few days. Any guesses as to what we're building? 💚

That weird time between Christmas and New Year when you're not sure what day it is, what's for dinner, or what you're supposed to be doing... 💤

Wishing you a Merry Christmas from all of us at Goodheart Farm Animal Sanctuary! 💚

As we reflect on this past year, our hearts are full of gratitude for your unwavering support. Your generosity has touched the lives of so many animals at our sanctuary and has been a vital part of our mission to protect and care for those in need. 🐾

As we look ahead to 2025, let's continue to spread compassion and kindness, not just to the animals we care for, but to all creatures around us. Together, let's make this coming year one of love and empathy - by leaving animals off our plates and welcoming them into our hearts.

Here's to a new year filled with hope, kindness, and brighter futures for our furry, feathered, and four-legged friends. 🐮🐰🐷🐔

It’s not too late to make a compassionate choice this Christmas and leave animals off the menu. 🦃❌

Did you know that a staggering 10 million turkeys, 250,000 geese, 2 million chickens, and 500,000 pigs are eaten in the UK during the festive season, with most of them consumed on Christmas Day? 😔

But here’s the good news: there are so many delicious, affordable, and cruelty-free options for your Christmas dinner that don’t contain any animal products! After all, isn’t a life worth more than just one meal? 💚

Let’s make this Christmas one to remember - for both you and the animals! 🌱✨

Little Shetland Dudley is still waiting for someone to sponsor him this Christmas ✨🐴

At just under 4ft tall, Dudley may be a pint-sized pony, but what he lacks in height, he more than makes up for in personality! When he first arrived, Dudley was quite shy and unsure of people, making it a challenge for our team to groom him or pick his feet. But with plenty of patience and gentle care, Dudley has blossomed. He now loves his daily grooming sessions and enjoys walks up and down the drive with his carers.

By sponsoring Dudley this Christmas, you’ll help with his care - and that of his friends at the sanctuary. He’ll also be your best friend for life - perfect for anyone dreaming of a pony! 💚

Sponsor Dudley now 👇
