Farm Sanctuary SA serves to instil an awakened connection between farm animals and visitors, aiming to inspire a positive change in the way society views and treats farmed animals. Driving and funding the mission is founder and director Joanne Lefson and the resident rescued ‘fabulous and famous’ painting pig ‘Pigcasso’. Their artworks have sold for millions around the world and the funds not only sustain the operations at the sanctuary but Pigcasso’s world-breaking records have received unprecedented coverage for the plight of farmed animals.
