Blind Spot Animal Sanctuary

Volunteer

– Typical volunteer activities include mucking the barn or the coop, raking, and pasture cleaning. Many of the animals will come visit you while you complete your tasks but please remember that some tasks may include minimal animal interaction.  Volunteering is physically intensive, so expect to get a good workout!  If you rather just visit the sanctuary and want to interact with the animals, we offer a short tour where you can feed the horses, pigs, and resident birds.
