Meet our big-hearted leader and champion pig kisser, Kathy Stevens. Her passion, fortitude, dedication, and voracious “I LOVE YOU, COW” shouts have guided us all through 20 years of rescue, education, and love, and SO MUCH laughter. Kathy has been a beacon of hope in an ever-changing landscape: whether she’s riding in the back of a hay truck, teaching about the link between animal agriculture and our rapidly warming planet, or sneaking giant steer Tucker a banana (or three), she is the heart of our organization. She is the author of multiple books and is a sought-after speaker on vegan issues. Kathy is the 2020 recipient of Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries’ Carole Noon award, and is nominated for a 2021 Chronogrammie for Best Environmental Advocate.
