Eden is a not for profit vegan farmed animal sanctuary. It opened in 2008 and was the first vegan sanctuary in Ireland. It is now home to approximately 250 rescued farmed animals. Eden's ethos is anti-speciesist and it promotes animal rights and veganism.

The work we do at Eden is part of a global movement that seeks to completely eradicate all use, exploitation and killing of non-human animals by humans, to dismantle the property status of animals under the law and to secure the right of all animals to live free from human control, subjugation, use and slaughter.

Far from being an act of charity, the existence of a vegan sanctuary that accords other animals their rights, is a political act. We regard it as the right of every individual to be free from ownership by another. We regard the life of every sentient individual to matter equally, regardless of species. In our view when humans live as vegans they respect the right of everyone not to be owned, used, exploited, harmed or killed, regardless of species. In recognition of the intersectional nature of veganism, we also regard these as human rights and recognise the interconnectedness of human and animal exploitation. Our Logo, Eden: Liberty, Equality, Veganism, represents this philosophy of animal rights. Our work is to expand this way of living beyond the residents of Eden to every living being, not only through the abolition of human use of other animals, but through a radical revision in the ways we think and feel about other lives and our view of ourselves as one of many species of life on this planet.
