's latest creation is complete! This round bale feeder sits between the Winter Pasture and the Lower Pasture and is set up so the sheep and alpacas can reach it on one side and the cows can reach it on two sides. Big thank you to the Long Family Farm for helping us with the design on the cow openings 💚

An old friend dropped by for a visit! Hootie, the baby owl we saved on the side of the road last year. We're pretty sure it's him because he is frequently on fenceposts and stuff around the sanctuary and he lets us get WAY closer to him than any other owls do.

Here he is on overwatch duty waiting for the rodents to come out and try to steal the chicken food.

Ballydídean aims to promote animal welfare, ethical land stewardship, and positive community building

Founded by the Santosa family in 2018, Ballydídean Farm Sanctuary is something that Sarah and Ansel dreamed of starting since they were 15 in high school. Many have never met farm animals; particularly not those who were kept in non-production conditions and have misconceptions about the behavior or characteristics of those animals. Those misconceptions are often used as excuses for treating farm animals different from pets.

We want to adopt animals out of production conditions and give them happy, peaceful lives. And we want to give others access via community or educational events to help build a sense of empathy towards these animals, especially in children.
