About Thistle Farms
Thistle Farms is a sanctuary for healing for women survivors of abuse, addiction, trafficking and prostitution. We are a community of survivors, advocates, employees, interns, volunteers, and friends from all across the world. We are young and old, women and men. We want to change a culture that still allows human beings to be bought and sold. We believe that in the end, love is the strongest force for change in the world. The women of Thistle Farms have developed guidelines for living that describe practical ways we can love one another without prejudice or judgment. Influenced by the Benedictine Rule, our programs are grounded in 24 simple principles about living gracefully in community.
