Do you long to ease the suffering of Gnomes you have unwittingly enslaved?
Maybe you were mislead by symptoms of "Stock Still Syndrom" and believed, at the time, by the convincing tactics of sales people, that they were "only garden statues"?
Do you feel that, now that you understand that Gnomes are actually sentient, intelligent beings, you truely owe these gentle Gnomes a better life and a brighter future?
You CAN release your Gnome and thereby show him or her your true, caring intentions for his or her future. By completing and signing the Standard Legal Emancipation Papers provided below, you give your Gnome TRUE, LEGALLY RECOGNIZED FREEDOM. Your next step is just to release the newly freed Gnome to a predator free, supportive environment like the Sanctuary.
It would mean the world to this gentle creature and his or her loving relatives. You can then track your Gnomes progress through periodic updates on this website.
Please talk with your Gnome about your intentions and feelings, then contact HUGRS for information on how to help the emancipated Gnome reach the first stop on our Gnome Underground Railroad for safe passage to the Hidden Urban Gnome Reserve and Sanctuary:
