Welcome to Serenity Farm Virginia, a 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to fostering compassion and connection between humans and animals. Supported by generous donations and operated by a dedicated team of unpaid volunteers, we strive to make a meaningful impact in the lives of both animals and humans.
Our mission is multifaceted: we are a farm animal sanctuary, a cat rescue, a wildlife habitat, and educators.
Farm Animal Sanctuary
We provide a safe haven for animals rescued from neglect, abuse, and abandonment. Our residents include dogs, pigs, chickens, turkeys, goats, ducks, donkeys, sheep, rabbits, and a horse, each with their own unique stories and personalities. They come to us in need of care and compassion, and we strive to give them a life filled with love and respect. At Serenity Farm Virginia, these animals find their forever home where they can live out their days in peace.
Cat Rescue
We take in stray, abandoned, and feral cats, providing them with medical treatment, socialization, and a safe environment. Serenity Farm Virginia becomes their permanent sanctuary.
Wildlife Habitat
Our farm also functions as a wildlife habitat, offering a refuge for native wildlife. Our grounds include native plants and trees that support wildlife and provide vital resource for the conservation of local ecosystems and the protection of diverse species.
Education
Education is a cornerstone of our mission. We are passionate about raising awareness about animal welfare, environmental stewardship, and sustainable living. Through our outreach programs, farm tours, and newsletters we engage with the community to inspire a deeper connection with the natural world. We believe that education is key to fostering empathy and driving positive change.
