Meet the animals of Farmaste
Tucked away in Lindstrom is a nearly 80-acre farm that's home to more than a dozen animals who are getting a second chance at life, after being rescued from bad situations. They get vet care and will live the rest of their lives roaming the pastures of Farmaste Animal Sanctuary. Over the past twelve months, nine of their residents required emergency veterinary care at the University of Minnesota. Because of those visits, their emergency vet fund is low. They have a 'Give to the Max Day' campaign to replenish that account. You can learn more at: https://www.givemn.org/organization/Farmasteanimalsanctuary
