Live your values. Change the world. Choose MOGO!
Let your life reflect what truly matters to you. Discover ways to choose MOGO (most good), act on what’s most important to you, and build a better world. Our life-transforming MOGO workshop offers you:
- Dynamic activities that show you how to help people, animals, the environment and yourself all at the same time, bringing together everything you care about
- Practical tips for your daily decisions, volunteer work, and career, so you can implement change in any and all aspects of your life
- Like-minded people who will support and inspire you, building confidence in your ability to affect change
You’ll learn about the ways in which your everyday choices, your work, your activism, and your volunteerism can do the most good and the least harm. MOGO is recommended for anyone who wishes to learn how to make their lives a manifestation of their greatest vision for the world. Read more about our MOGO workshops.
Participants will also enjoy fun, educational activities at the shelter on Sunday morning, including an extended tour, brushing goats and cows, learning about how and why the shelter operates, learning about animal health care and important Farm Sanctuary campaigns; finally, participants will discuss the best methods to educate the public and strategize how to advocate for animals in their own personal lives in light of the MOGO Principle.

“Excellent! Worth every minute!”
~ Cherie Herne, York, ME
“Thanks to you all for a very stimulating, informative, spiritual, and revitalizing weekend.”
~ Linda Starkweather, Canandaigua, NY
“Thank you. Thank you. Thank you! By nature I am a ‘quiet advocate,’ trying to do the right things and make the right choices in life – to practice MOGO on some level. This workshop has helped me refocus my energy and desire, to feel okay about my failings to be perfect but encouraged to do better on a daily basis.”
~ Doug Bowie, York, ME
