About Us

About The Funny Farm Sanctuary

A 501(c)(3) nonprofit farm animal sanctuary in Bryceville, Florida, near Jacksonville.

Our Mission

Every animal deserves a safe space to thrive

At The Funny Farm Sanctuary, we believe every animal deserves a safe space to thrive. We open our hearts to animals in need of a fresh start—giving them a place where they are valued, protected, and loved.

Many of our residents arrive timid and unsure. With patience, routine, and plenty of treats, they learn to trust again—and before long they’re rolling over for belly rubs and greeting us at the gate.
