2020 Events
It was a trying year for everyone here at Sunrise, as we know it was for many of you. We were able to hold some of our Open Barn Days, but had to cancel our two largest events, Spring Fling and Thanksgiving FOR the Turkeys. We are happy to report everyone at the farm is well and we are looking forward to welcoming everyone back in the spring. Our 2021 Event and Open Barn Day Schedule will be posted in January. Please check back for dates and more information.
Thanksgiving FOR The Turkeys – Sunday November 22, 2020 from 1-3
Due to COVID 19 and an order from the State of Ohio, we have cancelled this event. We are devastated to have to cancel, but want to comply with the letter and sprit of the law and most importantly want to make sure you and our many volunteers that would have had to be on hand for the event are safe. If you pre-ordered a meal, Seitan’s Realm is refunding the cost directly to you. We will refund your admission price paid upon request. If you were registered, an email was send directly to you with instructions. Thank you for your support and we hope to be able to open the farm up to our Open Barn Days in the Spring. If you have any questions, please email us directly, sandy@sunrisesanctuary.org.
Our Thanksgiving FOR the Turkeys Event is our largest fundraiser of the year. Every year, we save turkeys from being on a plate and allow them to live the rest of their natural lives in peace and love here at the Sanctuary. This year’s rescues have not arrived yet, but will be here by the event and you can help welcome them home! In addition to celebrating these magnificent beings, this event helps us to raise money to pay our feed bill for the winter. Every year, we are thrilled to welcome old friends back and new ones to the family.
There will be yummy vegan food available for purchase. We are excited to welcome back Village Taco and Seitan’s Realm and to welcome Where It All Vegan who will be collaborating together to prepare one fantastic vegan Thanksgiving lunch! There will be a link to pre-order food on our Facebook page soon. Also at the event, you will be able to support three amazing bakeries all will have delicious deserts available for sale, Doughasis, 108 Delectable Delights and Moonflower Bakery. So much vegan yummy goodness all in one spot! There will also be a silent auction and plenty of time to meet and love on the Sunrise animal family! Our current silent auction donors are listed below. Please support them as a way of thanking them for supporting us! Also, please check our Facebook event page as donors will be added up to the event.
We charge admission to this event to raise money for the Sanctuary, but, instead of a fixed amount, we are letting you choose the admission price that is right for you by buying a virtual item of food or a supply the animals need and you will have the option to make an additional donation either online or at the event. One ticket is required per person, they are non-refundable, but may be transferred to another Sanctuary event. This event always sells out quickly, so please get your tickets early! Thank you so much for your support and we hope to see you on November 22nd!
