Vegan · WOLCOTT, VT · Joined in July 2022
Hello! My name is Maramonie. I am the founder of Harmony Farm Sanctuary and Wellness Center, a vegan farmed animal sanctuary in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. I am also a child and family therapist specializing in trauma and work in the community where I live. My favorite animal is a pig, and, though I was vegetarian for a decade, it was pigs that ultimately made me make the full switch to vegan. I love educating people about veganism and helping them see typically farmed animals as the emotive, sensitive, thoughtful, and loving beings they are, as individuals.
I am busy, busy, busy! Between running a farm animal sanctuary, working FT as a therapist, and also working on my doctorate, I don't have much time for anything outside of those realms. I am a homebody and love to be outdoors whenever possible.
My favorite books are the Abarat series by Clive Barker. I also love most Stephen King and a good horror movie any day! I am a child of the 80s and still listen to the music from my childhood...The Cure, The Smiths, Duran Duran, David Bowie. I also enjoy indie dance and 80s-esq type music of today.
English and very little Spanish
MS in clinical mental health counseling and art therapy; currently working on my doctorate in psychology
Lamoille County Mental Health Services
We have over 80 animals at the sanctuary but have 3 pigs, 3 dogs, and 3 cats who share the "people barn."

Amazing place to stay! Would highly recommend. The site was perfect. It was so fun to see all of the rescued animals. The host was welcoming and took the time to show me around and made sure I had everything I needed. Would definitely recommend!
