A Film by Allison Argo
Forever HOME
Partnership Guide

Synopsis
In the heart of North Carolina, two dreamers are revolutionizing animal care with innovative architecture designed to honor the needs of rescued farm animals. At Piedmont Farm Animal Refuge, goats scale purpose-built climbing spaces, and chickens greet the morning light as their coop opens with the rising sun.
As they construct a thoughtful new home for rescued cows and their calves, this moving documentary unveils a powerful vision of compassion in action — one that challenges us to see farm animals not as commodities, but as individuals with rich inner lives.
Through stunning visuals and heartfelt storytelling, Forever Home reveals the profound beauty of farm animals when they're given the freedom to simply be themselves.
