“Yesterday was the most awaited day for my course on ‘Animal Stories.’ I took my students to Critter Creek Farm Sanctuary where they met 26 animals to learn their stories and also to write them. As part of the excursion, each student will be producing biographical cards for two of the animal residents, which the sanctuary will print and distribute to visitors as part of their educational program. We were able to count on the expert Katelyn Braglia, their Volunteer Coordinator and Humane Educator. I can’t stress how knowledgeable and awesome Katelyn was — if you would like to help the sanctuary as a volunteer or sponsor, let me know and I’ll put you in touch with her.” – Roger Maioli at University of Florida
“We love the monthly Mooket. An all vegan farmers market complete with great food, awesome vendors, and beautiful animals living their best life.” – Michelle Lawson from Google Reviews
“What a unique place! Here, farm animals are saved to live their life out in natural conditions taken care of by many volunteers. Many species are here including dairy cattle and water buffalo and more!
A female cow runs leads the herd and keeps everyone in order! She’s the boss!
The neighboring acres are permanently preserved and protected natural forest.
They hold a monthly vegan food and fun creative local vendor event on the first Sunday of the month, except June, July and August. It runs from 1pm to 4pm. Thanks volunteer Chris for taking some time with me to explain what Critter Creek is about! Life is good with friendly safe animals!” – Dave Wright from Google Reviews
“Farmer’s Moo-ket is one of the best events in Gainesville, especially in the cooler months. One day, they will may make a two-lane road to enter the farm, but don’t let that discourage you from going. It is worth the drive for the cows, pigs, and vendors.” – EV – Poetic Reviews from Google Reviews
“For only a $5 donation (which goes to helping these deserving rescue animals) you can cuddle with some pigs, feed some cows, enjoy the beautiful trees that surround the farm, and (if it’s the first Sunday of the month) enjoy a farmers/craft market and food trucks! I loved it and will definitely be returning with friends.” – Abby Hastings from Google Reviews
