About this event

Let's honor the lives of the veal calves at this awful dairy farm by giving a little love to these beautiful babies and chat up a few people to spread the word that dairy is scary. Plenty of parking. (I park along the road instead of in the parking lot of this ice cream shop.) April 17 is a day to raise awareness for farm animals.

Visit a Local Farm/Sanctuary: Visit a family farm, farm sanctuary, or farmers market that prioritizes humane conditions. Choose Ethical Products: Use your buying power to support meat, egg, and dairy vendors who focus on animal welfare. Look for "Certified Humane" or "Global Animal Partnership" labels. Adopt a Plant-Based Diet: Reduce your consumption of factory-farmed products by trying plant-based eating, participating in meatless meals, or going vegetarian/vegan. Share Knowledge: Educate others about the intelligence and sentience of farm animals, and the negative impacts of factory farming (e.g., climate change, lack of space). Adopt a Farm Animal: Consider sponsoring or adopting a rescued farm animal to directly support their care.
