Sasha Farm's 2025 Fall Festival
Saturday, October 11 @ 12 PM EDT
Fiddles, Flamenco, & Chili Fun!

Experience the Magic of Music, Chili, and Compassion!

It will be a joyful afternoon at SASHA Farm Animal Sanctuary, featuring Fiddlers, Flamenco, Farmyard Friends—and a VEGAN Chili Cook-off!

What to expect:
🎻 Saline Fiddlers Philharmonic – a high-energy youth ensemble blending bluegrass, folk, and American fiddling traditions
💃 Alma Española – a passionate and dynamic flamenco troupe bringing the spirit of Spain to the Michigan countryside
🌶️ Chili Cook-Off: Multiple talented cooks will be serving up their personal best vegan chili creations! Taste, savor, and vote for your favorite. Hang out in our “Chili Cave” while making your chili decisions—your next sample is just steps away. Chili will be available throughout the event until supplies run out.  
🐷 Animal Interaction: A guided farm tour at 11:45 AM gives guests the special opportunity to meet and interact with the animals up close. Outside of this tour, all animal viewing is from behind the fences only.
🏈 Watch Football: Watch the football game while trying all the delicious chilis!  

Whether you’re tapping your toes, swaying to the rhythm, or sampling your way through chili, it’s a celebration of musical art, animals, food, and community you won’t want to miss. Bring your friends and family, and experience music with a mission!

REMEMBER TO BRING A 12-CUP MUFFIN TRAY! You will use this to gather all your yummy samples!
