Story Book Farm is a place of safety. We offer freedom from fear. We are a place of healing and recovery from trauma.
Currently, we are home to 19 monkeys who have come to us for peace and solace from a variety of backgrounds, some of them with stories difficult even to share, let alone survive.
In sanctuary care, we encourage friendships between our residents. We encourage exploration and freedom of choice. We give back the ability to make decisions and control events that affect residents' lives.
At Story Book Farm we believe that all animals have rights; that animals have the right to live free of fear or pain from humans, in any form; and that we can all make a difference, one being at a time.
Won't you join us in our mission? Donate or volunteer today! The rewards are immeasurable.
Story Book Farm Primate Sanctuary is a Federally registered charitable organization. Tax receipts will be provided for donations of $20 and over. Registered Charity No. 84081 7910 RR0001.
