🐾 VOLUNTEERS NEEDED! 🐾

Serendipity Farms was incredibly blessed to receive a HUGE donation of animal supplies from a local rescue! ❤️

Now comes the big job—we need help sorting, organizing, and properly storing everything. Because of the amount donated, this will be a large project, and we could definitely use some extra hands!

📅 September 4–8
📍 Serendipity Farms – Cedar Grove, NC

Even a few hours of your time would make a tremendous difference. If you’re available and willing to help, please send us a message!

Thank you for helping us continue giving animals the second chances they deserve. 🐾❤️

You want to talk about prayer and faith? ❤️

I’ve been so worried about what happens after our final market of the year, when that extra income stops until next year. I keep asking myself, How are we going to keep this going? And like always, I pray.

And like always, God provides.

What we received was nothing short of a blessing. Because of the multiple trips and having absolutely zero light by the time we finished, we basically had to pack everything away as we unloaded it. We still have to go through everything to truly see what all we received.

I do know the only things we did not receive were chinchilla and ferret food. Some of our animals will be covered longer than others, but this donation will absolutely help get us through for a good while.

A simple “thank you” doesn’t even come close to expressing how grateful I am. This took a huge weight off my shoulders and gave our rescue some much-needed breathing room.

I am extremely humbled, extremely grateful, and after all that lifting and unloading—extremely sore. 😂❤️

But once again, when I was wondering how we were going to make it work, God reminded me:

Keep the faith. He always comes through. 🙏❤️

I swear, the last couple of weeks have been an absolute roller coaster. 💔❤️

First, we had someone come onto our property, open our gate, and interfere with our animals. Then we had an AMAZING weekend with one of our wonderful volunteers and were able to accomplish so much around the farm. For a moment, it felt like we could finally breathe.

And now, someone has reported Serendipity Farms on Nextdoor for asking for donations to help support our animal rescue, resulting in our account being temporarily suspended.

It’s honestly heartbreaking.

Anyone who truly knows us knows how much of our own time, money, energy, and heart we pour into this rescue. We aren’t getting rich doing this. Quite the opposite. We work, sacrifice, build, clean, feed, repair, and keep going because these animals deserve a safe place and a second chance.

I will never understand why someone would go out of their way to make things harder for people who are simply trying to do something good.

But there is always a silver lining. ❤️

We will keep putting one foot in front of the other. We will keep caring for these animals. We will keep building Serendipity Farms. We will keep believing that the kindness in this world outweighs the cruelty.

But I’ll also admit it—sometimes it is exhausting. Sometimes you wonder how many more obstacles you can take before you finally get a break.

Then I look around at the animals who are safe because we didn’t give up, and I remember exactly why we keep going.

Second chances start here. 🐾❤️

Life ain’t perfect. It never goes exactly the way you want it to, and Lord knows mine sure hasn’t.

I spent a lot of years in a marriage where I felt like I couldn’t do anything. There was no drive, no adventure, no desire to get up and build something or make a difference.

But this man right here? ❤️

Yeah, he’s older than me. People may have something to say about that, and quite frankly, I don’t really care.

Because this man can work me tenfold—and if you know me, you know I work pretty damn hard. 😂

Does he grind my nerves? Absolutely.
Does he talk too much sometimes? Lord, YES.
Does he sometimes talk so much he doesn’t even make sense anymore? 100%. 😂

But he also puts 150% into our relationship, 180% into our rescue, and 190% into this farm and the life we are building together.

He doesn’t just tell me he believes in my dreams—he gets up beside me every single day and helps me build them.

We’ve been tired. We’ve struggled. We’ve had days when everything seemed to go wrong. But somehow, we keep getting up, working harder, loving these animals, and building something that means more to me than I can put into words.

The older I get, the more I realize that God doesn’t always put you where you thought you were supposed to be.

Sometimes He takes you through the hard stuff first.

And then one day, you look around at the man beside you, the animals depending on you, the farm you’ve built together, and the life you never imagined you would have…

and realize:

God put me exactly where I’m supposed to be. ❤️
