The grass will be going to sleep soon...
Help us stock up on hay for winter!
Winter is coming to New York, and that means hay. 150 rescued animals at Sweet Farm need enough stocked up before the cold sets in, and buying it now, before prices climb and supply tightens, is what keeps every mouth fed through the grassless season.
Our 19 goats, 4 cattle, 2 horses, 14 sheep, 3 llamas, and 15 pigs all rely on hay when the grass starts to die back. Every one of them needs to eat through the winter, and that means getting hay into the barn before the season turns and prices go up with it.
This campaign is about doing that early. Money raised goes toward buying and storing enough hay to feed the whole farm through the cold months, so nobody is caught short in January wondering if there's enough left.
Residents like PeeWee the sheep are part of why this matters. PeeWee came to Sweet Farm after the young couple who adopted her from their landlord realized their property wasn't big enough to give her the space she needed, and they reached out for help rather than give up on her. She's sweet and loving, loves to play kickball, and like every other animal here, she's counting on a full hay barn to get through winter.
A donation of any size helps fill that barn. Whether it's $10 or $100, it goes straight to hay, straw, and the animals waiting on both to stay fed and warm all winter long.
