The Haven at Skanda - Cazenovia, N.Y.
Contact: Nicole Woodruff
Email: nicole@thehavenatskanda.org
Phone: 315.480.9480
Address: 4000 Mosley Rd., Cazenovia, N.Y. 13035
Website: http://www.thehavenatskanda.org
Registration: If a troop would like to volunteer, they can contact the information above.
Cost: $10 per Girl Scout
Duration: 2-3 Hours
Levels: Daisy – Ambassador (within Girl Scout ratios)
Our Mission
The Haven at Skanda is a nonprofit farm that takes in rescued farm animals from all over the country and helps them heal from abuse and neglect – helping them get physically well, and helping them to relax, feel safe, and emerge as who they really are. We also support several families of endangered breeds. The animals are beautifully able to let go of trauma and live in the present moment as their pure, innocent, loving selves. In this way, they become loving role models, showing us what is possible. Skanda believes we have much to learn from animals, and offers programs that offer people the chance to experience the animals and discover love, hope, and possibilities. The Haven at Skanda is deeply invested in supporting children and young people as they connect with animals, nature and community and become responsible stewards and visionary leaders.
For individuals or families wanting to volunteer, please complete the brief form at: https://www.thehavenatskanda.org/volunteer
Volunteers can help with a variety of tasks including helping to groom the animals, clean their living spaces, feed them, and spend time loving them. Activities can be gentle, moderately physically engaging, or physically challenging, depending on what is the best fit for each volunteer.
Some volunteer activities are:
Brushing the miniature donkeys and cleaning their stalls
Playing with the goats and cleaning their bar
Watching the chickens and ducks as they play on the lawn, keeping alert for predators such as foxes
Cleaning the duck and chicken houses
Tending to Skanda’s Vegetable Garden for the Animals (summer)
Sweeping the barns
Helping to feed the animals their meals (requires training)
Cleaning horse buckets and animal dishes
Loading hay into the hay stall
Light construction projects like creating outdoor fenced-in areas for animals
Helping to install new horse fencing in the large pasture (weather permitting spring/summer)
Special projects, including spring and fall cleaning
Badge Opportunities
Daisy Animal Observer
Daisies visiting Skanda will have the opportunity to observe the rescued and endangered animals on the farm, including goats, horses, pigs, miniature donkeys, chickens, and ducks. Skanda will provide an animal observation game. Daisies will have the opportunity to focus their attention on one specific animal, getting to know them better.
Junior Gardener
Juniors can use Skanda’s Vegetable and Herb Garden for the Animals as a site for learning about gardening, including exploring and potentially modifying its design (created by a Fayetteville Girl Scout Troop in 2022), researching the plants that best benefit the animals of Skanda, and even planting and tending the garden.
Cadette Animal Helper
Cadettes visiting Skanda will have the opportunity to meet the animals, learn about some of the ways the animals help people emotionally and the lessons they teach us about friendship, generosity, and appreciation for diversity. Cadettes will have the opportunity to help the animals of Skanda with a volunteer activity that might include brushing them, cleaning their living areas, feeding them, or giving them love and attention. They may also have the opportunity learn how to help the animals of Skanda through special projects, fundraisers, or advocacy.
Seniors Voice for Animals:
Seniors interested in learning about the complexities of the way humans interact with and treat animals can meet the rescued and endangered animals of Skanda, learn about some of their experiences with being rescued and recovering from abuse and neglect, and learn how others have become endangered. Some of the rescued animals of Skanda have come from sport settings, and others from commercial/factory farming. Skanda staff can assist with resources for becoming an advocate for animals.
