"I started to realize there really isn’t a strong ethical argument to eating animals and their products" 

Lenore Braford is the Founder and Animal Care Director of Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge. Lenore has nearly a decade of experience working with and enriching the lives of animals. Her commitment and passion to helping farm animals stems from her core beliefs in kindness, justice, and compassion for all living creatures. In 2012, Lenore founded the Refuge in Pittsboro, North Carolina where she leads a team of committed volunteers and staff in taking care of some of the most special individuals you will ever meet – the beloved animal residents.

Today, Lenore gives us insight on things like what it's like to run an animal sanctuary, why you should opt for a sanctuary over a zoo and why there such a disconnect between our food systems and the animals exploited. Stay tuned for a fascinating conversation!
