Snooters Farm Animal Sanctuary

Snooters is a Farm Animal Sanctuary in Uxbridge Ontario. Before finding out about this wonderful place, I was under the impression that the only sanctuaries were in the States. I had been to Farm Animal Sanctuary in Ithica New York but had no idea we had any sanctuaries right here in Ontario, Canada! This wonderful sanctuary  protects farm animals and educates the population on the cruelty that goes on in factory farms and the need for vegan eating to protect these furry friends.

 Last weekend, we had the pleasure to go to the annual Open House at Snooters and what a thrill it was! I got to pet cows, sheep, horses and pigs and admire chickens and peacocks. The farm itself is beautiful and spotless. The owners Susan Morris and her husband sure do take care of the place! Of course many volunteers are required to keep such an impeccable farm with such happy animals. Can you believe over 300 people showed up to tour this compassionate facility!

At the Open House, besides the admiration of the farm and its inhabitants, there was a vegetarian BBQ going on with delicious veggie burgers and treats. A new vegan bakery was also on hand serving up beautiful and tasty cupcakes and cookies to raise funds for Snooters. Peace Love Happiness Co is the name.

My favorite part besides meeting so many lucky to be alive and so well cared of farm animals was being with so many kindred spirits. I got to make a new vegetarian friends and got inspired to do even more to promote vegetarianism in my neck of the woods.

I made a video to give you a global look at this wonderful sanctuary and its inhabitants:
