Story of SAFE

How it all started

In the fall of 2016, Catherine, founder of SAFE, bought this property to make her dream come true and finally open an animal sanctuary. At first, it was not a home for farm animals, but due to the critical situation of farm animals, I realized that I could make a difference in the lives of farm animals.

One day, three pigs escaped on their way to a slaughterhouse and roamed the countryside for about a month. With my plans to open a sanctuary, it was not possible for SAFE to allow these pigs to be sent back to become meat.
