The Gentle Barn

"My boyfriend surprised me with a cow-hugging therapy session at The Gentle Barn, and I had no idea how much I needed it. For an hour, we connected with five rescued cows, each with a story of survival and healing. Learning about their journeys—from being saved from slaughter to receiving care and offering comfort to others—was both heartbreaking and beautiful. While I adored every one of them, I felt a special connection with Oliver. The time flew by, but I left feeling deeply grounded, joyful, and at peace. Hugging them, receiving their sweet kisses, and witnessing their unique personalities"

"This place was glorious! Such a wonderful experience. The animals are so calm and beautiful, they give off so much loving energy. The place is really cool with so many different things to see and experience. It was really cute how the cows had Halloween bows and the guides were in costumes! All of the guides were sweet and informative. Had a delicious vegan dog in a cool and spooky vampire/Halloween cart. 10/10 will go back. Bought stuff in the gift shop to support the sanctuary 💖💖💖"

"I love The Gentle Barn so much. They have so much love and respect for all of their animals and seem to take such great care of them. They teach people how to read their body language, to be gentle, and respectful, which I have never seen anywhere else. 90% of the staff seem really nice, other seem annoyed by your existence, and others seem like they would rather not talk to anyone (which isn't great when you're supposed to speak to them about how to pet the animals etc). But the owners.... wow!! Absolute angels. Heros. I hope they never change. I would 100% recommend The Gentle Barn to eve"
