Hey kids! Did you know that there’s a farm in Aldergrove that helps take care of animals that nobody else wants? They have many volunteers that come every day to feed and visit them. One volunteer even reads stories to our blind turkey, Olive Oyl, and she loves it! One of our horses, Badger, really loves kids and misses them.

At our old farm we used to have many children come to visit, but at our new farm there’s no barn for the small animals and kids to visit in. You might be wondering how you can help?

Well let us tell you. You can help Kindred build a new barn for kids and animals by colouring our All Boots on the Ground colouring page and sharing it with your friends and family. This will help other people learn about the farm and spread that word that we’re raising money to build the new barn.

You can do our colouring page at home, in your classroom or at your next birthday party. And once you’re done your teacher or guardian will help send us your finished picture on Instagram, by email or in the mail. Read below to see the prizes you could win.
