Scarlet Oak Farms was founded in 2018 by a couple of animal advocates in Ayden, North Carolina after learning the harsh realities of shelter adoptions and that their area was inundated with stray and relinquished animals. By partnering with local shelters, Scarlet Oak Farms formed to rescue as many homeless and stray animals as possible. With their network of volunteer advocates, veterinarians, and donors; Scarlet Oak Farms is able to rescue numerous animals in their area every year.
