SAFE is bringing the Muddied Truth to Tāhuna / Queenstown – an event series exploring the devastating impact that mud farming (intensive winter grazing) is having on animals, the environment, and our communities.
Whether you're curious, concerned, or already involved, this is your chance to be part of the conversation and help shape a kinder future for Aotearoa.
Why are we calling for a ban on mud farming? 👇
Every year animals endure immense suffering and neglect due to mud farming. These conditions breach the Animal Welfare Act 1999, inflicting severe pain, distress, and avoidable death. Beyond the harm to animals, mud farming devastates Aotearoa’s environment, polluting waterways, degrading ecosystems, and threatening the health of all lifeforms. It’s time to put an end to this cruel and destructive practice.

❗IMPORTANT INFORMATION
🔹 This is a peaceful event and will be open to all members of the public.
🔹 This event may be subject to weather. Hit “Going” above to stay tuned for updates.
🔹 Aggressive or violent behaviour of any form will not be tolerated and any participants not respecting the peaceful nature of this event will be asked to leave.
🔹 There will be photo and video footage captured on the day for use by SAFE in our campaign communications. You will need to let a SAFE staff member know if you do not wish to be photographed/filmed.

If you're not able to join us on the day, you can still support the call to END mud farming by signing our petition here:
