Hadassah DeJack Reynolds, co-owner of Tikkum Olam Farm Sanctuary, and Jefferson Exchange host Mike Green on May 29, 2025.(JPR Senior Producer, Natalie Golay)For the past two years, Southern Oregon’s VegFest has attracted more than 2,000 visitors, and this year’s festival will have the same family-friendly outdoor attractions. New and longtime sanctuary residents, including pigs, ducks, chickens, and miniature donkeys. Two 40-minute animal tours begin at 12 p.m. and 2 p.m.
With the sanctuary growing, TOFS is raising funds during the festival for a new goat and sheep barn.
"We are hoping VegFest will help us reach our goal of $20,000 for the new barn,” said DeJack-Reynolds. “Most of all, we hope the community joins us to enjoy the activities and the animals — but we always appreciate donations from those who are able to give.”
Southern Oregon VegFest will host more than 40 vendors, including plant-based chefs and bakers, local artists and jewelry makers, animal advocates and local nonprofits.
Live music will play throughout the day with The Torpedoes. A wine and beer garden is featured along with free activities that include family-friendly yoga classes, sanctuary animal tours, hay rides, a children’s craft corner, a bounce house, face painting and lawn games.
