The mission of Antler Ridge Wildlife Sanctuary is to provide care and treatment to sick, injured or orphaned wild animals. Rehabilitate them back to their wild state so they can be returned to the wild. To actively educate the public to care for the ecosystems and support the environment in which they live and the wildlife they share it with. To protect and preserve our native lands for the future wildlife habitat.


Antler Ridge Farm was purchased by Jim and Kelly Simonetti in 2000, the farm is under the farm land preservation program of New Jersey. This mean the 120 acre is preserved and can never be developed. Over the years some of the land has been restored to the original farming fields and the rest is being maintained as a wildlife sanctuary. Under the guidance and direction of several agencies such as the Audubon society, tree farm stewardship and ridge and valley conversation the on going efforts will help maintain and continue to the nurture the flora and fauna native to New Jersey. The loss of habitat in New Jersey has put a tremendous strain on the wildlife populations; and has forced the animals to live in conditions they are unable to adapt to.
