August 31, 2020Cherryfield — Cottontail Cottage Farm Sanctuary, a 501(c)3, nonprofit, dedicated to providing a forever home to farm and companion animals, has taken a big hit by this year’s covid-19 pandemic.

This left just the Nichols family, who reside on the premises, to carry out the day to day running of the farm and care for the animals.— BDN Community, Bangor Daily News
