Visit our Sanctuary
Heartland Farm Sanctuary offers several opportunities to visit with our rescued residents and learn about our sanctuary – whether you’re doing that virtually or in-person! Explore our visiting options below. Please note that we are not open for drop-in visits.
Public tours
Heartland Farm Sanctuary offers public tours of the sanctuary every Saturday afternoon at 1 pm. Tours are 60 minutes long and are for ages 5 and up. The fee is $12/person and all guests (including kids 5 and older) must be registered one at a time.
For the safety of our staff, volunteers and the community, facemasks are required for all tour guests while touring indoor areas of the sanctuary. Outdoors, masks are not required.
Total capacity for public tours is 15 people, so please note that you will most likely be touring the sanctuary with people outside of your household. While touring indoor areas of the sanctuary, please maintain social distancing with anyone not in your household. You can find all of Heartland’s updated Covid policies here.
Please note: Our last public tour of 2021 is December 18th.
