Help Us Build a Forever Home for Rescued Goats at Goat Haven
At Goat Haven, we believe every goat deserves a safe and loving home. Recently, we opened our doors to 14 special goats rescued from a sanctuary that could no longer care for them. Our barn was already full, but we knew we had to act quickly to provide these animals with the care they deserved.
These goats have endured challenging pasts – some were abandoned as male kids by the dairy industry, while others suffered abuse. Now, with your help, we can create a sanctuary that will provide them and future rescues a stable and secure home.
Previously, these resilient animals lived in an old school bus – a creative solution by their former sanctuary but far from the ideal shelter they deserve. Now, we’re setting our sights on something bigger: a dedicated, modern barn large enough to house these goats and many more in the future.

Project Goals
Our vision is to construct a fully equipped barn on our King City property that can accommodate at least 100–200 rescued goats. This will allow Goat Haven to continue its mission of rescuing and protecting vulnerable animals. A barn of this size will enable us to offer safe, year-round housing, medical care, and a nurturing environment for each goat to thrive.
Estimated Cost:
Based on current construction and material costs in King City, Ontario, a barn of this capacity, complete with heating, ventilation, and specialized spaces for veterinary care, will require approximately $200,000 CAD. This ambitious project depends on the generosity of supporters like you, who believe in our cause.
Our Goal: Building a Modern Barn to Shelter 100+ Rescued Goats

Temporary Barn Space
If you’re a farmer in the King City area, especially a horse farmer with extra barn space, please consider opening your doors temporarily. In return, our goats can help maintain your property by grazing down weeds and invasive plants, providing a natural and environmentally friendly land management solution.
