Description
Join us at Paws for Humanity Sanctuary in Three Oaks for an afternoon celebrating our animals and community at our Fall Fest & Blessing of the Animals!
The festival runs from noon–4 PM ET with tours to meet the animals, live music, a food truck, games, hayrides, pumpkin painting and crafts. At noon, we’ll gather in the front pasture for a special Blessing of the Animals in honor of St. Francis of Assisi Day. Friendly pets are welcome on leash, and kids can bring their favorite stuffed animals to be blessed, too.
We’ll also be celebrating the newest member of the Sanctuary, our baby alpaca! Enter our naming contest ahead of the event with an optional donation, then come cast your vote for her new name at the Blessing.
Paws for Humanity is a nonprofit farm animal sanctuary providing rescue, rehabilitation and lifelong care for animals in need. Come meet our alpacas, goats, horses, donkeys, ducks and more while enjoying a fall afternoon at the Sanctuary.
