HUGE Washington Post story on Farm Sanctuary 6/15/08

[Guest guest]

The front page story of today's Sunday, June 15, Washington Post travel section (page p1) is about Farm Sanctuary! The "Long Weekend" story, by Andrea Sachs. is headed, "I Love Moo: Tales From A N.Y. Animal Sanctuary."Sachs tells us about her trip, describing many of the animals she met, such as a turkey named Sullivan, "who behaves like a lap dog" and "a piglet named Andy waddled over and begged for a belly rub."Check the article out here:http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/story/2008/06/13/ST2008061302244.htmlor at this tiny URL: http://tinyurl.com/3rlguj(Papers take note of which articles get the most clicks.)If you have spent time at this wonderful Farm Sanctuary, as I have, why not send the Washington Post a quick letter about this wonderful place to keep the discussion alive. You might also want to chat about other wonderful sanctuaries such as DC's local Poplar Springs. And the article opens the door for letters singing the praises of plant based diets.
