Welcome to the Old Poor Farm!
We have been located in the Elkhorn River Valley, Dodge County, Nebraska since 1872; although much has changed since then!
Once home over the years to 400 people in need, the Farm now offers shelter to animals not deemed 'adoptable' by most standards while continuing to educate about its rich past.
We are a non-profit 501(3)C no-kill animal sanctuary caring for 'special' creatures with disabilities due to neglect or abuse. This organization operates solely on the donations of compassionate people who understand that all life is precious.
Come, browse this site and explore our many different facets!
