Sheer Beauty: Presenting the Sheep’s Summer Hairdos!

It’s official: Farm Sanctuary’s wooly friends are naked. Each year, we bring trusted shearers to Watkins Glen and Acton to help with this vital part of sheep healthcare. As sheep were bred to produce excess wool, shearing prevents them from overheating, removes itchy plant matter nestled in their skin, and relieves them of extra weight on their bodies. With their new hairdos, they feel light and free and ready for the summer heat!

Rhino came to Farm Sanctuary with neurological issues. Though we knew his condition might shorten his life, we vowed to make every moment count.

Why Vegans Must
Avoid Lanolin

Lanolin is often often marketed as “all-natural” or “organic,” leaving consumers to assume it’s harmless. Companies put it in lotions, hair conditioners, and even baby formula. Why should vegans avoid lanolin if it’s in so many products people purchase and use daily? The answer lies in the horrible realities of factory farms and animal agriculture.
