Veganism is a philosophy of justice and peace; the recognition and respect of the basic moral right of nonhuman animals not to be used as property, because they are sentient beings who have moral value, and a peace movement that opposes violence against all sentient beings. Live vegan.

It’s that time of the year when the goat residents spend some of their day perusing the fields for acorns that have fallen from the oak trees.

It took parts of Saturday and Sunday, but we eventually got the container filled with hay. This should last us through the winter and until we cut the fields again next summer for hay.

Maypop likes to tag along and keep us company while we transport old hay from the stalls. If you believe nonhuman animals have moral value, i.e., value their life even if no one else does, then you have a moral obligation to go vegan.

Syrup took time out of his morning climb to admire his surroundings. To use nonhuman animals for food, entertainment, clothing, domestication, etc. is to commit injustice against them by violating their most basic right of not being the property of others.

this planet we call home. We should be working towards dismantling oppressive systems, not embracing them, so that we can bring about a better world for all, regardless of an individual’s race, gender identity, sexual orientation, place of origin, species, etc.

The free-living nonhuman animals, like the skunks, deer, snakes, rabbits, mice, opossums, etc., that the sanctuary is their residence or a resting place before they venture on is a reminder that we are all individuals that share this earth. We believe no individual should be considered illegal on…

This past week has been very busy for us. One of the things we’ve been dealing with is our first couple of cases of bumblefoot with Claudio and Vivi. Every day we’ve been making sure to take multiple steps to ensure their feet and bandages are clean.

We are always super grateful when people take time out of their day to volunteer at the sanctuary and help us provide the necessary care for the residents.

The heat is ramping up, so we assisted Nissa with installing a new mud hole to help her stay cool.

Over the weekend we hosted a small vegan potluck to celebrate 3 years of being open to the public and the community that has supported us during these last 3 years.

Maypop has been experiencing some skin irritation, which resulted in her scratching and causing a sore on her leg. After a visit with the vet last week and some prescribed medication, her leg is starting to look better.

Lovely Claudio and elegant Vivi The single most important thing someone can do for nonhuman animals is to respect their right not to be property and no longer participate in their commodification by going vegan.

Photo dump of the last few weeks at the sanctuary. All animal use is wrong, regardless of the amount of harm and death involved, for the reason that all sentient beings have the basic moral right not to be the property of others. Go vegan.

Ace is getting some scratches in while we try to add some fresh water to his pool. All nonhuman animal use involves violating the basic right-not to be the property of others-of another individual. Please go vegan and respect the rights of all sentient beings.

Vivi, Wrenn, Elly, and Claudio had a visitor join them for some early morning foraging. If you believe nonhuman animals have moral value, i.e., value their life even if no one else does, then you have a moral obligation to go vegan.

We had a wonderful time yesterday tabling at the Vegan Fest in Birmingham and speaking with familiar and new friends. We always appreciate anyone who takes a moment to stop by our table to talk about the sanctuary, going vegan, or just life in general, and to donate to the sanctuary.

Well, one of our top worries with the sanctuary finally happened. On Thursday afternoon, a fire broke out on our neighbor's property and spread to one of our fields, where some of the goat residents stay during the day.

❤️ Maypop and Morning Glory ❤️ Being a different species is not a justification to violate an individual’s right not to be the property of others. Please go vegan and stop viewing Maypop, Morning Glory, and other nonhuman animals as things to consume, wear, and use.

It really pains us to write this, but on 22 March we lost one of our dearest friends, Jinnie Fay. Jinnie Fay came into our lives in November 2024 after a coworker approached us about taking in a kitten that had found their way onto their doorstep.

Watching us do some spring cleaning has got Pumba tired. Reject violence and embrace peace towards all sentient beings. Be vegan.

We always get a giggle out of Belphe’s reaction compared to the other goat residents’ reaction to being secured in their houses for the night.

Graybloom Farm Sanctuary condemns the violent actions taken by our government in collaboration with Israel against Iran and its continuous imperialist conquest to dominate regions and their resources for its capitalist interests.

Vivi was able to secure a large piece of eggshell, while it seems Claudio was trying to mediate. All animal use is wrong, regardless of the amount of harm and death involved, for the reason that all sentient beings have the basic moral right not to be the property of others. Go vegan.

Pumba loves having his face scratched, so we always make sure to give him some face scratches when he lets us clean around his eyes. The single most important thing someone can do for nonhuman animals is to respect their right not to be property by going vegan.

Some of the residents didn't want any part of the freezing weather we had this weekend. If you believe nonhuman animals have moral value, i.e., value their life even if no one else does, then you have a moral obligation to go vegan.

Nissa is the first resident we took in at GFS. She arrived in April 2022 when we were notified that she had been abandoned in a small enclosed area by her owner. From our first interaction, Nissa has always been a very trusting and kind individual.

A common question we receive when people find out we are vegan is “What about being a vegetarian or about reducing the use of animal products?” Graybloom Farm Sanctuary does not promote anything less than abolitionist veganism.

Another holiday approaches, one of many holidays that people celebrate ideas of nonviolence, such as peace on earth, charity, self-reflection, love your enemies, freedom, community, forgiveness, etc., while simultaneously engaging in violence towards nonhuman animals.

Today was once referred to as Armistice Day. It was intended to be a day of remembrance, the perpetuation and celebration of world peace, and an end to all wars. However, the meaning of today has morphed into something entirely different.

In response to the recent actions of gutting essential programs for individuals who, due to a system that prioritizes profit over people's needs, need these programs, we at Graybloom Farm Sanctuary will now provide free food items to anyone in need, with no requirements necessary.

Nonhuman animals are someone, not something. The fish, pigs, cows, chickens, and other nonhuman animals whose existence humans have reduced to things to be used for food, clothing, companionship, experiments, transportation, entertainment, etc., are persons, as all human and nonhuman animals are.

Christmas, Benny, Syrup, Belphe, and Lukka greeted us after a morning of grazing. If you are a supporter of ours and not vegan, the best way you can help nonhuman animals is not by donating to us or other sanctuaries, but by going vegan.
