The VISION of Food Animal Concerns Trust (FACT) is that one day all farms will
be humane and healthy places to raise food animals.
The MISSION of Food Animal Concerns Trust (FACT) is to improve the welfare
of food producing animals. We seek to broaden opportunities for
humane farmers, and address the public health problems that come
from the production of meat, milk, and eggs.
After a successful launch late last year,
FACT looks forward to growing our new humane education project in 2010.
Our original workshop,
The Awesome Adventures of Sweet Pea the Pig!,
has been a big success. FACT is now set to launch the next installment in
our humane education series,
The Egg-cellent Adventures of Rhoda the Hen!
On Tuesday, May 11 from 4:00pm - 4:45pm FACT
staff members will be presenting the Sweet Pea workshop at
Namaskar Yoga Studio (3946 N.
Southport). The following week, May 18, join Rhoda Red the Hen as she goes
on her own journey to find out the truth about factory farming.
