Just A Few Notes
Esther
There is a chance that you may not see Esther. It is up to her and her agenda whether or not she is out visiting on a particular day. As this is a sanctuary, we strive to respect all residents and their need for privacy.
Steve and Derek
Just like with Esther, you may or may not see Steve and Derek. They are sometimes away from the farm for either work, or even for pleasure - which we do let them do once in a while!
Food for the Animals
We ask that you never feed our residents - we ensure they get lots of healthy, plant-based food that is nutritionally suited for them.
Food for You
If you wish to bring snacks or a picnic, please do so, we just remind you that in respect for all of our residents all food on the farm is Esther Approved!
Service Animals
Happily Ever Esther Farm Sanctuary welcomes everyone to visit us and meet our wonderful residents, and we know that for some people, this visit will include a registered service animal.
In order to ensure the health and safety of our resident animals, the visiting service animal, as well as our staff, volunteers and visitors, we would ask that you provide us with ample notice that you will be bringing a service animal.
In these cases we will do our best to ensure that your visit with us is as comprehensive as possible, but there may be certain areas of the farm where a service animal may not be permitted in order to ensure the health and safety of our residents. In all cases, service animals will not be permitted to have direct access with any of our residents, nor permitted into our barns or other enclosures.
Contacting us in advance to make arrangements for service animals is necessary. Service animals that we are not expecting may not be provided access to our sanctuary due to the high risk of airborne disease among certain animal species.
Companion Animals
For their safety and the safety of our animal residents, companion animals are not allowed on guide tours or on the shelter grounds at any time. Please do not leave companion animals inside your vehicle while you are visiting as temperatures inside of a vehicle can reach life-threatening conditions very quickly even with windows open.
Group Tours
Get up close and personal with our residents!
We are happy to welcome groups of up to 25 people for a private tour of Happily Ever Esther Farm Sanctuary. And, if there is a specific animal, or animals, that interest your group, we can customize your tour to allow more time with those residents.
