Flocktoberfest 2026: An Atlanta Gathering for Rescued Animals
Atlanta’s plant-based community extends beyond what’s on the menu. It also includes people finding ways to support animals and connect with the organizations caring for them.
One upcoming opportunity is Flocktoberfest, Farm of the Free’s annual fundraiser. This year’s event also marks the sanctuary’s tenth anniversary and brings the celebration to an Atlanta venue.

Get to know Farm of the Free
Founded in 2016, Farm of the Free gives rescued farm animals a home where they can live out their natural lives. The sanctuary also describes community events and education about vegan living as part of its work.
Its sanctuary is in Good Hope, Georgia. The October 25 fundraiser takes place at the Atlanta address above, so check the venue when planning your trip.

Meet the personalities behind the mission
The sanctuary’s resident profiles offer a starting point for anyone unfamiliar with its work. Wilson is a quiet cow who likes to observe before joining in. Hank is a playful Kunekune pig.
Reading these stories puts individual names and personalities behind the fundraiser. They’re also a good introduction for a friend who is curious about animal sanctuaries or the wider vegan community.
