About this sanctuary

Verified profile information attributed to the linked sources.

Our Mission at MMFS is to provide abandoned farm animals with permanent, healthy homes where they can live free of abuse or cruelty, to provide education for the local and broader communities about the well-being of animals, and to promote a culture of equity between animals, people, and the planet. “Because of the culture at Merrymac our students are forging deep connections with farmed animals – animals they might otherwise never get to meet or to see in this safe space.” Sara Bankert, The Schoolhouse Learning Center, School Partner Program 2024-2026 “My very first day as a volunteer at the Sanctuary, I realized this place genuinely accepts and values both animals and people for who they are, without judgment. It’s just love.” Tara Martin, Volunteer 2024-2026
