100% recommend this peaceful, sanctuary experience. Come by yourself, with a friend or with the kids. Every animal has a story. Some are playful, some are naughty, some are curious, some are introverts. You will, for sure, connect with many of the residents and leave with lots of memories.

Came here for the vegan potluck and tour and this place is amazing. The people who own it are extremely passionate about these animals. You can see how happy these animals are from their friendly faces and eagerness to have human interaction. The tour was perfect giving the history of the more active and human friendly animals. I intend to come back to events often and see how they expand.

Kindred Spirits offers engaging and informative tours that help you see the soul of their non-human residents. Tour guides are themselves involved in day to day opperations and sincerely care for these animals. They are ready to answer every question you have, and take time doing so. You'll meet cows, chickens, turkeys, goats, and more. The property itself is beautiful, and the animals live in excellent condition. There's also a gift shop with great shirts with original, creative designs. Proceeds go to the sanctuary. There's no cost for the tour, which makes it even easier to spend money in the gift shop to support their efforts. They'll also recommend a nearby dinner, Ocala's Downtown Diner, which offers an outstanding assortment of delicious vegan diner options.

Worth the visit and tour. Animals are placed first and catered to in many ways for their well-being (medically, socially). Tour guides were amazing individuals that demonstrated compassion to the animals.

Kindred Spirits has a true and pure vision for animal rescue. They take amazing care of these animals and offer lots of education while you take a tour. Their staff is approachable, kind and helpful. We not only visit twice a year- we donate to help support their mission.

Amazing staff. The animals are treated extremely well and it was fun getting to interact with them. Also provided free vegan lunch to volunteers. The setting is pristine and full of pulchritude. A great place for students, small children, or anyone who just wants to get closer with farm animals.

I volunteered to help out on the sanctuary and made beautiful connections with all the animals. The folks were really friendly and made me feel welcomed. I learned about each animal's story and about the sanctuary's mission to make sure that they take in the animals that need a home. I was very IMPRESSED by how CLEAN the area was! Fresh green grass! :D

I loved this place. I have been here twice. Once with my family, and once with my school. This is a true sanctuary. You can see how much they love the animals. The animals are all very much cared for, and they have lots of room to roam, and to live the rest of their days in peace. This sanctuary takes in animals that have been abused, rescued from factory farming, or have disabilities. They are not just open to the public so please contact them for a tour.

Caring staff, tons of room for the animals to roam, informative if you are interested in learning more about veganism. Great little excursion for kids too, there were tons of little ones running around during the tour and the staff appreciated all the young visitors.

Last Thanksgiving was our best ever. Usually Thanksgiving has a sad element because of the cruelty to the turkeys and other beings, Last year we shared the day with living animals and other kindred spirits that were understanding of the cruelty and we sharing the day with many, many like-minded people.Our hearts and spirits soured; can't wait to go again this year, especially when gentleness and compassion are so needed.Peace to all who live,Sofie and Joe Buyniski

Had a great time touring the farm and learning about the animals they've rescued. Highlights include: petting a chicken, meeting the pigs names for The Office characters, and petting goats. 🐄🐐🐑🐓🐔🚜🐖
