National and International Farm Animal Organizations

• FARM (Farm Animal Reform Movement). FARM is THE place to learn about veganism, Meatout Mondays, and nationwide action campaigns. Based in Bethesda, Maryland, FARM concentrates on the links among animals, health, hunger and environment.
• Farm Sanctuary. With two locations (New York and California) and a strong national presence, Farm Sanctuary is one of the largest national organizations to actively rescue and house farm animals, and to educate the public on the evils of factory farming and a meat-based diet. See the related Factory Farming.com for reliable information on diet, legislation, educational resources, and rescue.
• Farm Animal Sanctuary. Based in Warwickshire, England, this is an animal sanctuary with over 500 farm animals.
• Free From Harm This organization is for the "Vegan and Closet Vegan in Us All." While its focus is on supporting veganism, it covers a wide range of related topics.
