Meet Jessi and Evans
Jessi and her son, Evans started The Mini Farmers Sanctuary in August of 2018. Growing up Jessi was always surrounded by animals and wanted Evans to grow up the same way. Jessi had many health issues as a child, so her family raised her around animals to help as therapy. They still help her today. Their first rescue was a potbelly pig named Clover. Clover changed their life because from there they grew to the sanctuary they are now. They have over 30 (and counting) sweet animals they’ve taken in to love forever. All were rescued from either bad living situations, abuse, or from slaughter.
"I rescue animals because animals rescued me!" - Jessi
"People always ask if I'm a cat or dog person, but really I'm neither. I'm a ALL animals kind of person!" - Evans
