What People Say

I found the Noble Heart

Sanctuary a very special place for the animals whose lives are being rescued and cared for.

They have the freedom to roam and interact with each other and the visitors.

I witnessed a family who visited with a special needs child who was thrilled to be able to pet the goats in a safe, nurturing and controlled environment. How thrilled he and his family were. They are looking forward to returning, as |am.

I had the most incredible experience visiting Noble

Heart Sanctuary. Not only is it an animal sanctuary, but it also possesses a profound power to heal others. It offers a nurturing environment where visitors can find a deeper connection with nature and animals.

Whether you are seeking solace, healing, or simply a connection with animals, this sanctuary has a way of touching your soul and leaving you feeling rejuvenated.

I can not recommend this place enough. It is clear that the animals are not just residents of this sanctuary, but cherished members of a loving family.

We visited Noble Heart

Sanctuary this summer and had the most magical time with Julie and her son Kyle, and all the animals that they've rescued and so lovingly nurture and care for. All these furry creatures were so gentle and friendly and surprisingly very clean! We had the most glorious time petting and loving them all up, while walking around their beautiful green pasture in the fresh air and sunshine. It was such an amazing experience and we feel so blessed that we got to share time with all of them, and be able to be so close to such majestic and sweet creatures.

Julie and her family rescuing these beautiful animals and working so hard to give them a healthy and happy home is beyond words. The world needs more of this! We walked away literally feeling like we'd fallen in love. Thank you so much Julie and Kyle! You're doing an ama8’g job and we will be back 

NobleHeart Sanctuary is the place to experience the deep human to animal connection. These animals are so loved by the owner of the property, Julie Pizzini, that they welcome guests with curiosity and open hearts in return. The sanctuary is home to goats, cows, horses, donkeys, sheep, a fearless cat named Star, and Sampson the friendly doggy groundskeeper. It is not every day that you get to experience the personalities of farm animals, to see them be playful and free. There is no doubt these animals are grateful for being saved from their previous lives. Each time I have visited Noble Heart, I have been humbled by their affection. My heart has felt so full to be able to interact with them in their truest form, knowing they are safe and attended to. Julie continues to inspire as she always manages to make space, in her life and on her property, for the well being of these animals. For the last few months, even Julie’s living room has been occupied by a sick baby cow named Little Man, who now has a chance at life he would have never known without Julie believing in and catering to his recovery. She is driven to provide the best for them, while also finding ways to share it with the community; providing us all with a new perspective on how to be stewards to the life that is around us. There is no love like the love that comes from a rescued animal, a trip to Noble Heart Sanctuary is proof of that.

I have recently moved to New Marlboro . One of the first people I met was Julie Pizzini. She is so warm and friendly and invited us to visit Nobel Hill Sanctuary. The  sanctuary has been an oasis to our family.

I go as often as possible because being in that environment and around the animals helps me decompress from the personal , social , and political stress of everyday life in the world we are living in !

Noble heart sanctuary is a amazing place that has already saved so many animals and is giving them the loved worry free life they deserve!

Noble Heart Farm Sanctuary is a place of peace and love. The farm is a soft place to land for the farm animals that are lucky enough to find themselves in the loving care of Julie and Kyle. Whenever I visit, it fills my heart with warmth and hope for all of our futures, human and fur and feathers alike.

Julie started her concept of Noble Heart Sanctuary with a vision of provide value and foster connection in our community by working with humans and animals to foster support and connection.  I first met Julie in 2021, when I learned that two of my families’ goats- Patches and Oreo, were moving from their home on Sisson Hill to Julie’s farm. Goats being goats- they, and the other members of the herd were adept at escaping their fencing and snacking on my mother’s flowers and vegetables. I was grateful and relieved to know the goats would be relocating just up the road. 

Since that time, I’ve had the opportunity to visit frequently, meet the next generation, and watch Julie’s concept blossom. This winter I went to the Mill River School Holiday fair- Noble Sanctuary’s animals were in attendance. I had the opportunity to see other’s experience what I experience- a softening of our edges, exhibited by smiles, pats, sometimes hugs, and laughter as folks interact with these creatures. 

Julie has a vision, visions are challenging to effect, but her commitment to developing a program to foster connections between animals and humans never waivers. 

With Gratitude
