Many hands make light work. 🙌🙌

Got plans this weekend? We are looking for 2-4 volunteers to help us this Saturday (9/26) and/or Sunday (9/27) with building the roof for The Den, our next guest cottage.

You must be able to lift and carry +60lbs comfortably. We will be moving the roof framing from where it was delivered to The Den.

If you are local, strong, and eager to help, send us an email 🙏🏽 gratefulmeadows@gmail.com

You will learn about earthbag building, suistainable building, and get to meet the sanctuary residents. 🐓🐴🐶🐷

We look forward to your help.

Have you ever seen who bacon came from? Have you ever seen inside CAFOs (concentrated animal feeding operations)? When you do, you will see faces much like Florence's.
Every time we see the hell millions of pigs are living in, we see Florence's sweet face. He would have been slaughter for meat at just six months of age had he not made his dash for freedom. He would have never experienced grass under his hooves, sunshine on his snout, or belly rubs from friends. While he is Free, millions are not. 💔

Hi friends, we just opened up our November calend

Hi friends,
we just opened up our November calendar for B&B guest to book a stay in this Cozy Cottage. If you checked out our listing recently, you likely noticed there were not any dates available to book. Initially, we blocked off November and December in hopes that we would have The Den ready and guest could reserve both spaces, The Cottage & The Den, together. But sadly, we have hit some major setbacks with The Den that have delayed us. We are still diligently working on The Den and will post more as we know more.

Anyone looking for a weekend getaway in November now is your chance to book this little cottage in the woods.🍂

We look forward to hosting you soon.

With an attitude of gratitude,
The Grateful Meadows Crew

Thank You to everyone who has supported and donate

Thank You to everyone who has supported and donated to our sanctuary over the years. It's not easy or inexpensive to care for rescues. Our weekly feed and supply cost add up quickly plus vet bills, farrier cost, and infrastructure projects.

But the donations from family members, friends, small businesses owners, and animal lovers makes all of our lives a little sweeter. 🍉

We love you all and are grateful for your support. 🙏🏽

Happy Birthday to the one and only, Baelyn. 🎂 She's eleven years young today.

Started the day with a #vdog greenie in bed. Had a beyond burger for lunch. Took a hike in the rain. Had peanut butter pup cakes for dinner. And spent the entire day with her favorite people.
🧡 Love this lady 🧡

Somewhere under a rainbow there is a cozy guest cottage. 🌈 🏡

Such an epic shot captured by a guest last summer. Now every time it's raining and sunny I'll go peek to see if there's a rainbow again. 👀

📸 Thanks @toddalanbreland for capturing this beautiful moment. 🙏🏽

From a lonely piglet at animal control to a thrivi

From a lonely piglet at animal control to a thriving handsome man. Otis has come a long way in two years.

We first heard about Otis when he was at an animal shelter in NC about to head to auction. He was just a little scared piglet around three months old. Otis doesn't have any of the typical factory farm "characteristics" (a docked tail and he wasn't neutered) so our guess is he was someones "pet" until he out grew his home. Once they realized he's an industrial pig that would grow to be +600lbs they gave him up. He was also pretty timid and scared of people when he first arrived at GM. But all that changed with time, snacks, and love. Now he is the first to flop for a belly rub and will eagerly "sit" for treats.
