What is the Celebration FOR the Turkeys?
An integral part of Farm Sanctuary's life-saving Adopt-A-Turkey Project for more than 20 years, our Thanksgiving Celebration FOR the Turkeys event brings animal friends across the nation together with rescued turkeys at our New York or California Shelter for a unique holiday extravaganza on the farm. A memorable experience for humans of all ages, our Celebrations boast quality meet-and-greet time with hundreds of friendly farm animals, entertaining guest presentations, camaraderie with compassionate folks, and irresistible vegan versions of favorite holiday foods.

And no Celebration would be complete without our famous Feeding of the Turkeys Ceremony, a cherished tradition where charming turkeys are doted upon and presented with festive platters of stuffed squash, cranberries and pumpkin pie. (See California and New York event photos from 2006!) Routinely covered by local and national media, this delightful and meaningful spectacle makes its way beyond sanctuary grounds and into the mainstream consciousness, where we make a powerful plea for mercy and offer a vision for a more peaceful way of living.

Reservations are required for both our New York and California Celebrations FOR the Turkeys. The California and New York events are now SOLD OUT. Please contact our national office at 607-583-2225 ext. 221 to be added to the waiting list. The Orland, Calif., event includes a catered vegan holiday dinner and costs $30 per person. The Watkins Glen event costs $10 per family and features a potluck dinner where all guests are asked to bring a vegan (free from eggs, dairy, honey, and animal byproducts) dish to feed eight people.

The New York Celebration will take place at 2 different venues. Please view the event program for more details.
