Farm Sanctuary Hoedown: 40 Years — A Weekend in the Fields That Celebrates Four Decades of Animal Rescue

Farm Sanctuary turns 40 this year, and Hoedown is how they are marking it. This two-day celebration at the 275-acre Watkins Glen sanctuary brings behind-the-scenes access to the sanctuary's fields and barns, speakers who have shaped the animal welfare movement, and food that makes a strong case for plant-based cooking. It is a weekend that stays with you — part farm visit, part reunion, part honest reckoning with where our food comes from.

Date: Saturday–Sunday, August 15–16, 2026 Time: TBD Location: Farm Sanctuary, Watkins Glen, NY Cost: TBD
