This week's winner of the Zehrs Donut Day Giveaway is Out of the Ashes in Sebringville! 🍩

Nominated by Judy, she says:
"Angie Hurst and her team make sure these rescue animals receive the best care possible after coming from unfortunate situations. Out of the Ashes is a large animal rescue located in Sebringville. Currently, we have nearly 100 animals we care for daily. Almost all of these animals are rescues. Throughout our years of operation we have rescued over 50 horses. We also have a variety of other rescue animals including: cattle, buffalo, llamas, sheep, chickens, ducks and more. In the summer, many of our animals range our 'field of dreams' - a pasture of over 40 acres. Though we would love it if all of our animals could be in the field of dreams some of our animals with specialized needs, such as our blind horses, are located in smaller pastures on our property to ensure their safety. In the winter, our animals are all tucked into our barn to keep them out of the elements. Each and every one of our animals have their own unique story. We are dedicated to ensuring all of our animals get the absolute best care we can provide. Angie and her team have the biggest hearts."

Congratulations Out of the Ashes team! Thank you for everything you do.
