Come See Us

Two ways to
spend a day here

Whether you'd like a quiet, personal visit during the week or the full come-one-come-all Sunday experience, there's a way to meet the Residents that fits.

Monday – Saturday

Private Visits

A more personal way to experience the sanctuary. Book a time that works for you and spend it with the Residents at your own pace — ideal for families, small groups, and anyone who'd rather visit somewhere quiet.

Monday – Saturday
10:00 AM – 5:00 PM
By appointment only — reserve your time below.

Every Sunday

The Open Barnyard

No sign-up. No appointment. Just show up, dressed for the weather, and spend the afternoon with the Residents. Wander the property, sit with the animals who want company, and take your time — that's the whole point.

Sundays
11:00 AM – 1:00 PM
Open to everyone — no appointment necessary. Wear appropriate clothing and boots; conditions can get muddy.

A few things
worth knowing

This is a working farm and, more importantly, it's home to more than 85 Residents. A little preparation goes a long way toward making your visit good for everyone — you included.

Dress for the farm

Wear appropriate clothing and boots. Conditions can be muddy, and you'll be on your feet outdoors for most of your visit.

Kids of all ages welcome

Children are genuinely welcome here — this is one of the best places we know to meet a farm animal as an individual for the first time.

Please leave dogs at home

We're unable to allow dogs during tours or events. Many of our feathered Residents free-range across the property, and their safety comes first.

Connection is the point

We actively encourage one-on-one time with the Residents. That intimacy is what makes SoulSpace different — take it slow and let them come to you.

This is their home first.

Everything here is built around the Residents feeling safe. We're just friends along their journey, giving them the time and the space they need. These aren't rules for the sake of rules — they're how we keep this a place the animals actually want to be.

No chasing or running after the Residents. This is their safe place, and chasing — of the birds or anyone else — is never allowed. Let them set the pace; the ones who want to say hello will find you.
Our feathered friends need a little extra room. Many of them came from traumatic situations, and sudden movement frightens them. Children are warmly welcome to sit still and let the birds come to them — parents, a gentle reminder that running can startle the Residents goes a long way.
Please stay out of the pasture areas unless you're accompanied by Kara or a member of the Resident Care team.
One-on-one connection is encouraged. Sit down. Be quiet. Be patient. It's what makes a visit here an intimate experience rather than a tour.

For Teams & Organizations

Corporate events &
team building

Bring your team somewhere that isn't a conference room. A few hours at the sanctuary tends to do what trust falls never could — people slow down, put their phones away, and talk to each other like humans again.

We tailor every group visit to what you're after, whether that's a hands-on volunteer afternoon, a guided experience with the Residents, or simply a quiet reset somewhere green.

Hands-on together

Optional volunteer projects your group can take on side by side — real work, real impact, and a shared story afterward.

Time with the Residents

A guided introduction to the animals and their stories — the part everyone talks about on the drive home.

Support that goes somewhere

Group visits directly fund the daily care of 85+ rescued Residents. Your team outing keeps the lights on here.
