Southern Sun Farm Sanctuary is a non-profit that rescues abused, abandoned, and neglected horses in the NC mountains.

Southern Sun Farm Sanctuary is a non-profit horse rescue located in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina.
**The mission of Southern Sun Farm Horse Rescue is to provide a safe, secure place for abandoned, abused, neglected or unwanted equines.**
We rescue horses of all types from abuse, abandonment and neglect, and work to find them loving forever homes.

Ann and John Lisk have over 50 years combined experience working in Animal Welfare. A lawyer by training, John took over the helm as Director of the Miami-Dade Humane Society and turned it around operationally with improved facilities, fundraising, community outreach as well as a newly donated building. While there John began the first ever Safe Families-Safe Pets Program. He found that crisis centers would not allow pets to stay with them. Through this program, women/families in abusive situations could leave their family pets safely at the Humane Society while they found better living arrangements. While serving on the Board of Directors for the Humane Society, Ann Lisk worked with two regional Horse Rescues. Whether administratively or operationally, there are not many scenarios that they have not experienced. That experience translated into Southern Sun Farm Sanctuary.

As Seabiscuit’s trainer, Tom Smith once said…“You don’t throw a whole life away just because its a little banged up.”
