The Gress Mountain Ranch is involved with the Lehigh County Cooperative Extension, and as part of TheOpen Gate Farm Tour, the ranch will host an event on Sunday October 20th, 2013 from 1:00 – 5:00 p.m.

There will be a petting zoo, which will introduce some of the rescued animals including ponies, alpacas, goats, and pot-bellied pigs! There will be educational talks, a live Band with music by The Rotten Apples, presentation by Leading Edge Martial Arts, bake sale, food items, a raffle, barn sale, and pony and donkey cart rides.

The Gress Mountain Ranch is a sanctuary where abused and neglected animals are given life-longcare to recover and thrive. In turn, the animals become therapy animals and have a big job to help people learn to improve their self-worth, communication skills, and learn respect for all living beings.
