WELCOME TO
The Farm rescues and provides sanctuary for abused, neglected, and abandoned animals.
At The Farm, animals learn to trust again and have a chance to thrive and live out their lives in peace, comfort, dignity, and love.
Featured Rescue
Have you ever heard us say "don't pet the orange cat"? Well, here she is Ginger! Female orange cats are rare, so she knows she special. She has diabetes, requires twice daily insulin injections and a special diet. She likes maybe one human and tolerates a few more. We give her as much love as she allows. She doesn't mind if you sit and talk with her, but she requests no touching!
Visit the Farm during Open House, most Sundays 2p-4p (rain cancels)
or by appointment.

ABOUT US
The Farm at Oatland North is an animal sanctuary located on the north end of St. Simons Island. In the 1700's the land was known as Oatland Plantation. Doug Taylor, Barbara Hasell Murrah's grandfather, purchased the property in the 1940's. Barbara and her husband, Bascom, returned to the Island over a dozen years ago and began the farm with her horse, Lightning. They were soon joined by their daughter,
Natalie, who brought 2 cows with her, Amanda and Panda.
The family farm continued to grow as the farm adopted retired, unwanted, abused, and abandoned animals. The Farm was primarily funded by the Murrah family and in 2012 it was incorporated and became a 501 c(3) not for profit charity. Sadly, Barbara lost her brief battle with cancer in July 2013. With the help of the Murrah family, dedicated volunteers, and friends, the Farm continues to provide sanctuary for animals.
