Become A Shellmate!!

🐢 🐢 Become a Shellmate!!!
Help Us Care for Karla, Tulio, McLovin & Petri
Welcome to the Shellmate Circle — a growing group of guardians who choose to support rescued tortoises in their forever sanctuary.
🐢 What’s a Shellmate?
A Shellmate is someone who makes a private contribution to help feed, care for, and protect one of our rescued sulcata tortoises — Tulio, McLovin, Petri, or our newest girl, Karla.
Your gift helps provide:
    Fresh food & hay
    Habitat improvements
    Enrichment & medical care
    A safe, off-grid home rooted in permaculture
    Hands-on educational experiences for children and families
Every dollar goes straight to their care. No frills. No salaries. Just real impact.
