We will be using the “Animal-Centered Design” framework established by Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge in NC.

Steps we are taking before we bring animals to the farm:

1. Research - Consider the species’ ancestry, what makes them feel safe, and how they would typically spend their time if in the wild.

2. Site Plan - Map out each species’ home, particular conditions on the property in each location, considering seasonal changes.

3. Build! - Recruit lots of volunteers to help us build these homes for our residents.

4. Bring animals to the farm & adapt - Based on our observations of the animals in their homes, we may make modifications to ensure maximum comfort, safety, and flourishing.
