The farm is open to visitors by appointment.
About the Farm
Gemini Farm Sanctuary is a 501(c)3, Rescue, Rehabilitation, and Sanctuary for domestic pets and farm animals in need. We are a small hobby farm nestled in the northern fringes of the Endless Mountains of Pennsylvania. The farm has always been a work in progress as we continue to educate ourselves on the ‘animal industry’ and the wants and needs of the animals in that industry. The more we learned, the more we realized that our direction and passion are about rescue and sanctuary and have been strictly a sanctuary for well over a decade
What We Do
Our rescue efforts, initiated in the late 1970s, continue to thrive today. Over the decades, we have nurtured various species, including registered dairy goats, Thoroughbred horses, Miniature Horses, Australian Shepherds, and Chinese Cresteds. Additionally, our sanctuary has always been a haven for rescued cats and kittens. Committed to our community's well-being, we aim to sustain a Trap, Neuter, Return program to manage and care for local feline populations.
Throughout these diverse endeavors, we have never lost focus on our primary mission: to rescue animals in dire need of our help. Eventually, we realized the limited value in breeding different species while thousands of animals are euthanized annually due to abandonment or neglect. This epiphany led us to transform exclusively into a sanctuary for unwanted and unadoptable animals, dedicating our resources to those who need us most rather than contributing to animal overpopulation.
Who We Are
Gemini Farm Sanctuary is an expression of our love of animals and in memory of my husband Frank who managed to do a great job hiding his love of all creatures. Only I saw him calming a frightened pony, going off to the woods to hunt…with a camera, bringing suffering lambs home that he found in a parking lot with a frantic owner, or stopping to rescue a kitten from a ditch. He worked hard to hide his sensitive side and was often successful. Frank and I love this farm, the land, and the animals, and my dream is to make sure the farm goes forward, with love and compassion for all, long after I have gone to be with Frank.
