June Open Sanctuary Rescued Animal Snuggle

You can never have TOO much love these days, so come spend a couple hours with us. Maybe you need some animal snuggles, or you've got some to give back to our rescued farm animals of 23 different species! Best of all, you know your ticket price helps to support animals who have been rescued from neglect, abuse and abandonment, to give them a forever home where THEY are loved. And you help contribute to that every time you visit. You’ll have access to pens and pastures to meet all the different species who call Broken Shovels their forever home, with their caretakers and volunteers nearby to tell you all about them. In 2025, we are lowering our event prices to make sure all of our animals’ overflowing love can reach everyone who needs it. Tickets are now $10 in advance or $15 at the gate, and all EBT/SNAP recipients will receive free admission, just show up and show your card at the gate. We are the only farm animal sanctuary easily accessible by public transportation, just one block away from the 88 bus line and a 15 minute walk from rail service. Please check Google Maps transit option for schedules and ride options.
