7 Rescued Farm Animals Who Will Brighten Your Winter


Winter is a beautiful time to visit Farm Sanctuary in Watkins Glen, NY, if you’d like to avoid the Finger Lakes’ busy tourist season. Snow transforms the landscape, creating a serene backdrop for meeting our rescued residents.

There’s nothing quite like witnessing hundreds of farm animals thriving in peace and comfort—a powerful glimpse of the life that every animal deserves.

Plan your visit before spring arrives! Book a private tour (public tours reopen in the spring), reserve a stay, or sign up to volunteer.

Can’t visit? Connect with the animals virtually. Follow Farm Sanctuary on Facebook or Instagram, and check out our livecams on Explore.org.
