Help Us Build J. Sherman Farms & Gentle Giant

Donation protected

help us create a home for our herd and rescue dogs. We’re a small family with a big dream: to build J. Sherman Farms & Gentle Giant Great Pyrenees Rescue — a mountain-side haven where yaks, llamas, goats, and rescued Great Pyrenees can live safely, freely, and with purpose. Right now, we’re still in Nebraska, working toward our next step — purchasing land in Fairplay, Colorado, to establish a self-sustaining, family-run farm and animal rescue that honors both family legacy and community compassion.

 ️ Our Dream

 We envision a 35-acre property nestled in the high Colorado mountains — open pasture for our herd, cozy shelters built by hand, and wide, snow-dusted fields where our rescued Great Pyrenees dogs can roam and rehabilitate. Each structure will serve a purpose — barns for the animals, safe kennels for the rescues, and a small family farmhouse powered by solar and mountain sun. This dream is rooted in love, legacy, and purpose — named after our late family member Jay Sherman Main, whose heart for animals and family inspired it all.

  Why We’re Raising Funds

 We are asking for your help to purchase land in Colorado and begin the first phase of building this farm and rescue. Your support will help with: • A down payment on agricultural land suitable for livestock and rescue operations • Initial infrastructure: fencing, animal shelters, and water systems • Permits, surveys, and basic utilities to prepare the land for safe occupancy Every dollar — whether $5 or $500 — brings us closer to planting roots in Colorado and creating a lasting sanctuary for animals in need.

  Our Mission

 • To provide lifelong, compassionate care for rescued Great Pyrenees dogs • To raise yaks, llamas, and goats ethically and sustainably, showcasing how small mountain farms can thrive responsibly • To build a space that honors family, educates visitors, and uplifts the local Park County community Our motto is simple but powerful: “Family Raised. Colorado Proud.”

  How You Can Help
 • Donate — every bit counts and directly funds land and rescue infrastructure. • Share — spreading our story helps us reach caring hearts who believe in rescue, farming, and family dreams. • Follow our journey — on Facebook and Instagram (@J.ShermanFarms) to watch this dream take shape.

 ❤️ From Our Family and the Herd

 Thank you for helping us build a future for our animals — a farm where rescued Great Pyrenees, gentle yaks, curious llamas, and playful goats all have a forever home under Colorado skies. This dream belongs to all of us — every supporter, every share, every dollar. Together, we can make J. Sherman Farms & Gentle Giant Rescue a living, breathing reality.

  Be part of the herd. Support the dream. Help us bring our family and rescues home to Colorado.
