As you know, we are heavily involved in recycling as part of our funding. Our supplier has had several machine breakdowns causing lots of popcorn bags to be defective. We are searching for help boxing these up for shipment. We currently have many, many bags in a trailer in our yard needing to be boxed but the trailer belongs to our neighbor. Would anyone be willing to help box these bags up for shipment?

Misfit Acres has ended 2011 and started 2012 on some very high notes!! Since Christmas Eve morning, teh rescue has received over $8K in grants and donations. Although this is a lot of money, supporting 11 horses takes a lot of money. We are so very grateful for all the generosity!!

there will be many unhappy relatives,
but LOTS of delighted horses.
