Winslow Farm, Organic farm and animal sanctuary in Norton, Massachusetts
Winslow Farm is an organic farm and animal sanctuary in Norton, Massachusetts, where visitors walk through pastures and fields to encounter rescued animals living in open spaces. The property includes areas for pigs, goats, sheep, and other creatures that have room to move freely throughout the day.
The animal sanctuary began operations in 1996, transforming the original farm property into a rescue space. Over time, the farm integrated these two functions into a single place for education and care.
The farm connects with local schools through educational programs that teach children about sustainable agriculture and animal care practices.
Plan to walk on natural paths to reach the animals across the property. Wear comfortable shoes and check the weather, as most of your visit will be outdoors in open fields.
Every Saturday, visitors can participate in 'green days' by bringing fresh vegetables like kale and spinach as donations for the animals.
