A Texas Beef Cattle Ranch That Had a Vegan Change of Heart

Rowdy Girl Farm Animal Sanctuary

Located in the heart of cattle ranching country just outside of Austin, our sanctuary treats animals as friends and family not food. Each and every one of our 130 farm animals has a name, a story and a unique personality. They were all destined to become food or were deemed inconvenient to keep. At Rowdy Girl Sanctuary, all enjoy the freedom and love they deserve.

We were Texas cattle ranchers. We consumed animals just like many people do. Then the day came when the anguished cries of the mother cows watching their babies go to the sale barn could no longer be tolerated. A place where slaughter was the norm became a place of peace after enormous challenges were overcome.

Thank you for visiting our site! We hope you’ll support our work for animals and come visit us.
