LEAPers Kendall (left) and Leah learn to do a post-surgery bandage change on rescued turkey, Helen Sturkie. We are thrilled to have these two responsible, dedicated, compassionate young women back in LEAP for the 2022-2023 school year after participating in the pilot program last year. Each one of the six participating sanctuaries is raising funds for scholarships for their students, vegan lunches at the monthly classes, staffing to run LEAP at their sanctuary, and hands-on workshop materials. You can donate to the LEAP program here at @blackberrycreek at the link in our bio and help give teenagers a compassionate alternative to 4H and FFA programs. 💛 @leap4animals @kendallstoner22 @healthyveganfood101 #leapforanimals #changemakers #animalcare #veganfood #environmentalstewardship #leadership #kindnessinaction (at Blackberry Creek Farm Animal Sanctuary) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjtmJlvPhy-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Repost from @leap4animals • All 3 LEAP sanctuaries gathered today for our first all-sanctuary workshop at @jamesonhumane 🤩 The May workshop topic was all about equines. 🐴 Jameson’s horse vet, Dr. Vanessa, and equine care manager, Lauren, explained the vast and complex world of equine veterinary care, daily care and diet, adoptions and rescue, and the plight of the horse. (Did you know that the average horse will have 6-7 owners in their 25+ year lifetime?) Of course, horse meet-n-greets were the most integral part of the day! …as was the awesome Tex-mex vegan lunch provided by Jameson’s very own RVT, Kathryn 🌮😋 As our LEAP pilot program enters its final few weeks, we will be launching into project time, where students will give presentations or make videos discussing topics on animal care and welfare. Stay tuned for more! #leapforanimals #jamesonhumane #rescuedhorses #humaneeducation #horsetherapy #animalovers #napavalley #leap4animals (at Jameson Animal Rescue Ranch) https://www.instagram.com/p/CdoOBVTJ67k/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We had the best hands-on @leap4animals workshop this weekend with special guest and founder of @clorofil_org , Isabelle Cnudde! Students learned all about chicken health, housing, and care and Isabelle talked to them about rescuing chickens from the meat and egg industries. Finally, she showed them how to do very thorough health checks from beak to tail! We had a snack break to try several different kinds of plant-based egg and chicken alternatives including @rebellyous nuggets, @justegg quiches and @gardein strips and everyone loved them. Huge thanks to @christielagally for donating the @rebellyous nuggets! We are so grateful for our LEAP students’ commitment to animal welfare, learning, and leadership and to Isabelle for doing a fantastic job imparting chicken wisdom! #friendsnotfood #blackberrycreek #leapforanimals #chickensofinstagram #adoptdontshop @jamesonhumane @ranchocompasion (at Blackberry Creek Farm Animal Sanctuary) https://www.instagram.com/p/CayN-2blTZD/?utm_medium=tumblr
