Dear John,

We’ve come a long way since 1986—and we’ve done it together.

Thanks to you, the world is finally recognizing factory farming’s destructive impact on society and the environment. Thanks to you, awareness of farm animal suffering and sentience is spreading. You are the power behind the changes we see today—and your compassion is driving our education and advocacy.

We are so grateful for the entire Farm Sanctuary community. You are The Power of Sanctuary.

If you missed our anniversary celebration on Saturday, you can still watch! (And if you already watched the event or attended live, we'd love to hear your thoughts! Share your feedback.)

About the event:

Join special guests John Lewis, Dominick Thompson, Bob Weir, Paul Wesley, along with incredible changemakers: Brenda Sanders (Thrive Baltimore, Afro-Vegan Society, Vegan Soulfest, and Greener Kitchen) and Maggie Baird (Support + Feed). Together, we reflect on 35 years of Sanctuary, plus the work involved in creating a more just and compassionate food system.

In gratitude,
Farm Sanctuary

P.S. If you'd like to support our work while celebrating our history, you can make a $35 gift and receive this special (limited edition) 35th anniversary t-shirt! Wear this limited edition tee wherever your compassionate journey takes you—from our Sanctuary grounds to your community. With both retro and modern design elements, it's a great way to reflect on how far we've come and where we'll go from here.

THANK YOU

To those who’ve been with us since the beginning as well as those we’ve just met, we want to thank you. Our work would not be possible without you.

We’re also grateful for our Corporate Sponsors:
