Join us for the 2nd Annual GOAT Gala – November 6, 2025
Step into an evening where compassion meets celebration. The GOAT Gala is all about the healing power of connection—people, animals, and the land—coming together to strengthen mental health and wellbeing across Western New York.
Hosted by Open Farms, this unforgettable night will showcase how your support makes it possible for individuals of all backgrounds and abilities to find balance, resilience, and hope through animal care and community. Open Farms exists to create a place where people of all abilities can connect with the land, with animals, and with each other. This year’s Gala is more than a fundraiser—it’s a night that helps sustain opportunities for individuals with disabilities and mental health challenges to grow, work, and thrive in an inclusive farm setting. Rescued goats, donkeys, ducks, and chickens aren’t just adorable—they’re vital partners in our work to create safe, restorative spaces for healing.
The evening will feature farm-inspired food and drink, a basket raffle, wine pull, and other surprises. But most importantly, you’ll leave knowing the impact you’ve made in building a stronger, more compassionate community.
Together, let’s celebrate, connect, and carry forward the mission of Open Farms. When the herd gathers, good things grow!
