“All Canadians can be proud of the work done by the Story Book Farm Primate Sanctuary which rescues and cares for primates. Primates are our closest animal relatives. They deserve our help. Please go to www.storybookmonkeys.org and see what you can do. Thank you.” Dr. Jane Goodall
From her 2015 appeal when the sanctuary was looking to save its home.

Story Book Farm is a place of safety. We offer freedom from fear. We are a place of healing and recovery from trauma. 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. 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.
As of 2024-04-22, we are home to 22 monkeys and lemurs 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.
Won't you join us in our mission? Donate or volunteer today!
The rewards are immeasurable.
Thank you to everyone who has supported us in the past. We hope you will continue to do so in the future, and spread the word so that our community of supporters continues to grow!
