Join us for the first-ever Havencroft Hay Day, a fall celebration of animals, community, and getting ready for winter!

We’re opening the gates and inviting our community to spend some time at the sanctuary, meet the animals who call Havencroft home, and enjoy a little autumn fun. We’ll have snacks and drinks, opportunities to interact with some of our residents, and plenty of fall—and hay-themed—fun along the way.

Hay Day also has a mission: help us fill the barn for winter. Hay is one of our biggest recurring expenses during the colder months, when our grazing animals can no longer rely on the pasture. Our goal is to raise enough during Hay Day to stock up on the hay we’ll need to keep everyone well-fed all winter long.

Come meet the herd, celebrate the season, and help us make hay while the sun shines. Whether you stay for a little while or spend the afternoon with us, every visit and every donation helps us head into winter ready to care for the animals who depend on Havencroft.

Stop by the sanctuary to browse a wide assortment of donated items, hunt for a bargain, and help support the animals at the same time.

All of our yard sale items have been donated, which means every dollar raised goes directly toward Havencroft Animal Sanctuary and the care of our residents. You can also donate to us if you’d like, just reach out!

While you’re here, you can also make a donation to come in and meet some of the animals! Say hello to the goats, alpacas, chickens, ducks, and assorted other hooligans who call Havencroft home.

Come for the bargains, stay for the barnyard mayhem, and leave knowing your yard sale haul helped provide food, shelter, veterinary care, and lifelong refuge for animals in need.

One person’s clutter is another goat’s hay money.

Interested in volunteering at Havencroft—or already part of the crew? Come join us for a Volunteer Meet-Up at the sanctuary!

This informal informational session is a chance to learn more about Havencroft, the animals we care for, and the many ways volunteers can get involved. We’ll talk about what volunteering at an animal sanctuary actually looks like, go over current and upcoming volunteer opportunities, answer questions, and help you figure out where your interests and skills might fit.

There’s no commitment required, and you don’t need any previous animal experience to attend. Whether you’re ready to get your hands dirty, have a particular skill you’d like to contribute, or are simply curious about what it means to volunteer with Havencroft, you’re welcome to come learn more.

And, of course, no Havencroft gathering would be complete without saying hello to a few of the residents along the way.

Snacks & beverages will be provided.
