adopt & Foster
Welcome to our Adopt & Foster program! At Zephyr Mountain Farm Sanctuary, we provide loving homes for farm animals in need. Whether you’re looking to adopt an animal to become a permanent member of your family or foster one temporarily, you’re embarking on a rewarding journey that changes lives – yours and the animals’.
why adopt or foster?
Adopting or fostering an animal from our sanctuary means giving them a second chance at life. For our adopters, it’s a lifelong commitment to love and care. For our foster caregivers, it’s an opportunity to provide a temporary safe haven until a forever home is found.
