Your support means everything to us!

As of June 1, 2025 the HayBurners have taken over Rusty Bucket Acres. Going forward Rusty Bucket Acres will no longer operate as a 501.c.3, nor will it exist as an organization. As you all know, our farm is a magical and inspiring place. Support and donations are very important to our ongoing mission and efforts for animal welfare and longevity. The HayBurners will gladly accept all donations as a 501.c.3 public charity, in which you are entitled to a charitable tax deduction and Rusty Bucket Acres will be put to pasture for less stressful times.  The city of Afton has told Shelly and Lorna that friends and family are always welcome to visit and there is nothing that prevents us from entertaining.  As always, we are always looking for dependable volunteers.  Reach out if you are able to help.  Follow us on Facebook and Instagram for updates about the farm. As always, you can contact us with any questions.
