Promoting Compassion in Action for Farm Animals at Berkshire Farm Sanctuary
Manage episode 425326386 series 3571061
Dori Scofield is the Founder of Save a Pet Animal Rescue in Long Island, NY - a non profit that has been serving the Long Island community when it comes to dog and cat rescue and rehoming for over 24 years. Dori’s connection and compassion for animals is and will always be a significant part of her life journey. I have known Dori for many years - I have watched her lead, innovate, fight for, and be the voice for animals - sometimes vocally but more so through real action. She most recently manifested her vision to create an animal sanctuary with the focus on compassion in action for animals facing slaughter. She is putting faces and personalities to these animals.
Located in Peru MA, Berkshire Farm Sanctuary is spread over 20 acres and is currently the home to several sheep, pigs and goats that are near and dear to Dori’s heart. Dori has a beautiful farmhouse on the property where guests can stay and connect with the animals and savor the exquisite beauty of the Berkshires. Dori plans to expand the sanctuary in the coming years to include horses and other animals, host weddings and events, and possibly integrate a thrift store, candle shop, and a place to host local art. However, her mantra in her businesses and many projects has always been that ‘slow and steady wins the race.’ And she is applying that same mantra to Berkshire Farm Sanctuary. She and her team are focused on creating a sustainable environment for the animals to thrive and happily and healthily live out their lives.
