Chester's Barn Inc

We are a non-profit animal sanctuary, respite care, and therapy visitation program. Our mission is to provide a loving sanctuary, educate on animal care, good farming practices, and how animals help us. Our commitment is to be compassionate toward all beings especially those most vulnerable that don’t have a voice. Saving lives one animal at a time.

1. Corporate Wellness - When employees spend a few minutes with a goat, horse, dog, or cow their blood pressure goes down and they experience feelings of happiness. Sometimes this quick distraction makes for a more productive employee to endure the stresses of the day.
2. Animal Therapy Visits - Animals bring on the smiles. We go to hospitals, nursing homes, schools, and businesses. Staff and residents love animal visit days. It brings out the laughter and often is the lingering conversation for days to follow.
3. Community Appearances - We make appearances at select public events throughout the year. Email us today to see if we are available for your event.
4. First Responder Visits - First responders need love too! We visit public safety departments and organizations to let them know how much they mean to us.
5. Read And Color With Me - We love visiting local libraries. Schedule a “Read and Color with Me” hour. Learn about some of the animals at Chester’s Barn. Get to meet some animals in real life. Read and color a book about an animal from the farm.
