Workshop Venue: Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary
This workshop takes place surrounded by the Catskill Mountains just outside Woodstock, New York, the town made famous for peace and music. Our host, Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary, provides shelter to cows, pigs, chickens, turkeys, ducks, sheep, and goats who have been rescued from cases of abuse, neglect, and abandonment.
Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary is a two-hour drive from New York City. The Adirondack Trailways buses leave from Port Authority in NYC and will drop you off right on the corner of the farm.
